Developer Guide: Clarifo MCP server and Data API
How to use Clarifo's Nordic and US financial data through the MCP server inside AI tools like Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, or directly through the Data API in your own application.
Clarifo's data is available beyond the app itself: through an MCP server for AI assistants and a Data API for building your own integrations.
MCP server
Use Clarifo directly inside Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and other MCP-compatible AI tools. Connect once and your assistant gets Nordic and US filings, key figures and company comparisons as tools it can call. It can also render a Visual Story with Clarifo's card templates.
Claude users can connect from Clarifo's listing in the Connectors Directory, and ChatGPT users from the Clarifo app. Other clients add the endpoint as a custom connector.
Data API
Build your own integration on top of the same dataset that powers clarifo.com. The REST endpoints cover search, key figures, full statements, company profiles, revenue geography, comparisons, screening and audit-grade filing snapshots.
Which plan do I need?
The MCP connection is included in Standard and Pro. Pro adds the premium MCP tools (document summaries, reporting standards, the company intelligence brief and CEO tone scoring) and access to the Data API. Team plans have a higher MCP allowance. The Data API is not part of Standard.
Full documentation
Endpoint references, authentication, request and response schemas and code samples live in the docs. A good place to start is the quickstart, followed by authentication and the MCP reference.
MCP or API: which one?
Reach for MCP when you want Clarifo's data inside an AI assistant or agent you already use, like Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor. Reach for the Data API when you are building your own product or script and need direct HTTP access to the underlying data.

We now make it easier to move from our research to Claude. The workflow is simple: ask Claude to retrieve, compare and structure material from Clarifo, then keep the source trail visible in your notes. Financial research in Claude becomes more useful when the AI can retrieve actual company filings and financial data instead of relying on its training data. With the Clarifo Claude Connector, you can bring Nordic and US company financials, public filings and peer comparisons directly into your Claude conversations.
