Give your AI agent
access to real-world data
ApifyForge helps AI developers connect agents to real-world data by hosting MCP servers that expose web scraping, compliance screening, and financial intelligence as callable tools. Best for building Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf agents that need structured data from public sources. Less suitable when you need streaming or stateful tool sessions. Costs $0.05-$0.50 per tool call.
The problem
AI agents are powerful reasoners but blind to real-world data. They cannot check sanctions lists, scrape websites, or pull SEC filings on their own. Building custom tool integrations takes weeks per source.
The solution
Apify MCP servers expose 80+ data tools via the Model Context Protocol standard. Each server wraps multiple actors into a single MCP endpoint. Your AI agent connects once and gets company research, compliance screening, financial intelligence, and lead generation. Works with LangChain, LlamaIndex, Claude, and any MCP-compatible framework.
How it works
Choose MCP servers
Browse by category: compliance, financial intelligence, company research, lead generation. Each server groups 7-18 related actors.
Connect to your agent
Point your AI agent's MCP client at the server URL. Tools use Zod-validated parameters — your agent calls them like any function.
Deploy and monitor
MCP servers run in Apify Standby mode — always on, sub-second response. Monitor costs through the ApifyForge dashboard.
