Agility PR Solutions Launches AI Assistants Integration with the Agility MCP Connector
Ridgefield Park, New Jersey - August 18, 2026 - Communications teams can now derive decision-ready takeaways from verified media data in minutes without custom development required. This is made possible by the launch of the Agility MCP Connector, an extension of the company’s Media Intelligence API to AI assistants.
Agility PR Solutions has developed this connector as a solution for communications professionals who have adopted AI assistants for research, drafting, and analysis. However, these assistants typically answer from open-web data rather than media monitoring data that teams already rely on, resulting in a split screen between trusted data and assistant capabilities.
The Agility MCP Connector closes the gap by giving compatible AI assistants direct access to verified, structured media data through the Model Context Protocol (MCP), an open standard for connecting AI assistants securely to external data. This allows communicators to ask questions in plain language and receive insights grounded in indexed coverage rather than open-web results.
Agility’s Media Intelligence API provides programmatic access to a wide range of online, print, broadcast, podcast, radio, and social media sources, with over 2 billion licensed news items indexed annually. Until now, working with this data required building against Agility’s API or embedding it in dashboards, business intelligence tools, and internal applications.
The MCP Connector adds an alternative route to the same proprietary dataset, enabling teams to connect AI assistants directly to their media content without custom development. This streamlines access to verified media insights for communicators who work with AI assistants like Claude, which is compatible with the connector.
Once connected, communications teams can use the Agility MCP Connector to perform various tasks by interfacing with an AI assistant, including searching media coverage using natural language, generating executive takeaways, analyzing sentiment and trends, comparing brands and competitors, and visualizing insights such as share of voice and coverage over time.
The connector works securely through the Model Context Protocol (MCP), which allows an AI assistant to reach a specific data source instead of relying on open-web results. This ensures that compatible assistants can retrieve verified media coverage without custom API development or engineering effort.
Agility PR Solutions has built its platform for enterprise communications teams, delivering AI-native intelligence across multiple categories including media relations, social listening, and media monitoring. The company’s Media Intelligence API is recognized as a leader in the industry, with over 2 billion licensed news items indexed annually.
The Agility MCP Connector extends this capability to AI assistants like Claude, meeting communicators inside their tools of choice on data they can trust. According to Martin Lyster, CEO of Agility PR Solutions, ‘Our Media Intelligence API already delivers media insights our clients rely on. What they didn’t have was a way to put questions to it in the places they’re already working.’ The connector addresses this gap by integrating verified media data with AI assistants.
The Agility MCP Connector is available now for compatible AI assistants like Claude and can be found in the Claude Connector Directory, Anthropic’s reviewed catalog of connectors. Getting started requires an Agility account with Media Intelligence API access and a compatible MCP client such as Claude.
