For AI agents & LLMs

Scout, for agents.
Company intelligence your AI can call.

Point Claude or any LLM at Scout and it can look up Nordic companies, read explainable scores and pull signal timelines — with machine-readable docs and MCP tools built in.

Connect via MCP

Add Scout as a set of tools in Claude (and any MCP client). A remote MCP server is rolling out — until then, point your agent at the OpenAPI spec, or use the cURL tools below.

claude_desktop_config.json
// Streamable HTTP MCP — add to Claude Desktop / Code (or any MCP client).

  "mcpServers": {
    "scout": {
      "url": "https://mcp.scout.jakvab.se",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer $SCOUT_KEY" }
    }
  }
}

The MCP server exposes search_companies, get_company and get_signals — thin wrappers over the REST API, using your API key.
