Aiera MCP Server

The Aiera MCP server provides specialized access to earnings calls, SEC filings, company publications, and other data sets for large language models and agentic workflows, delivered through a suite of specialized tools and instructions.

What is MCP?

Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that creates a unified way for large language models to connect with external applications and data sources.

Rather than needing to implement different methods to access information for each implementation, MCP establishes a common framework for these interactions. This protocol enables bidirectional communication, allowing AI models to not only retrieve data from multiple sources, but also to perform actions within connected applications. Essentially, MCP serves as a standardized interface that streamlines how language models and agentic workflows work with external resources.

Setup

Aiera MCP is designed to be easy to leverage:
