drillr · The financial data and research MCP for AI agents

Filings, statements, earnings, ownership, events, executives, analyst data, company discovery and research signals for US, China and Japan equities — every figure traced to the document it came from.

Browser sign-in, no API key to copy. One hosted Streamable HTTP endpoint, ten tools: turn a name or a description into tickers, list and search a company's filings (structured as-reported facts and the filed text), run read-only SQL over the financial tables, and pull research signals from earnings calls and news.

⭐ If drillr helps your agent, star us — that's how we know to keep building this in the open.

Quick Start

Sign up at drillr.ai (80 free credits, no card)
Add https://gateway.drillr.ai/mcp/data to an OAuth-capable MCP client as drillr-data
Approve drillr Data in the browser. Restart the client — MCP tools load at startup.

Per-client instructions, kept current on the docs site: https://drillr.ai/developer/mcp-install.md. Or paste this into any coding agent with a shell:

text

Please install the drillr MCP server for me and walk me through the sign-in: server drillr-data, url https://gateway.drillr.ai/mcp/data, auth browser OAuth. Use my client's own MCP command to add it. Per-client details: https://drillr.ai/developer/mcp-install.md

Claude Code

Terminal

claude mcp add --scope user --transport http drillr-data https://gateway.drillr.ai/mcp/data

Restart, run /mcp, pick drillr-data → Authenticate.

Codex CLI

bash

codex mcp add drillr-data --url https://gateway.drillr.ai/mcp/data

Codex starts the browser sign-in from this command. codex mcp login drillr-data re-runs it later.

Cursor / VS Code / Claude Desktop / other OAuth hosts

JSON Config

{ "mcpServers": { "drillr-data": { "type": "http", "url": "https://gateway.drillr.ai/mcp/data" } } }

Cursor reads .cursor/mcp.json; VS Code reads .vscode/mcp.json with a top-level servers key; Claude Desktop takes the URL under Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector.

API-key fallback

For hosts without browser OAuth (Hermes, OpenClaw, self-built clients) or for REST: create an external key at drillr.ai/account/api-keys, keep it in a secret store, and add it as a bearer header on the same URL. Never configure OAuth and a static header on the same server entry.

jsonc

"headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer <YOUR_DRILLR_API_KEY>" }

yaml

# Hermes Agent
mcp_servers:
  drillr-data:
    url: 'https://gateway.drillr.ai/mcp/data'
    headers: { Authorization: 'Bearer <YOUR_DRILLR_API_KEY>' }

Agent skill

The companion skill teaches an agent how to onboard a user and use drillr well over REST or MCP, with a generated endpoint reference:

Terminal

npx skills add Little-Grebe-Inc/drillr-skill

https://github.com/Little-Grebe-Inc/drillr-skill

Smithery / Claude Code plugin fallbacks

Terminal

npx -y @smithery/cli install drillr/drillr --client claude   # Smithery: leave the key empty on OAuth clients

text

/plugin marketplace add Little-Grebe-Inc/drillr-mcp-server      # Claude Code plugin marketplace
/plugin install drillr

Hello World

"What does NVDA's latest 10-K say about supply commitments, and how did data-center revenue move over the last four quarters?"

The agent calls ticker_lookup if it only has a name, filing_list to see what is indexed, then filing_search — which returns as-reported facts (value, period, XBRL concept, accession number) and the passages they sit in, in one call.
For the quarterly series it calls run_sql on financial_statements.
You get an answer whose every number cites its filing. Typical round-trip 8–15 s.

The ten tools

Each tool has a page at https://drillr.ai/docs/mcp/<tool> with parameters, limits and error shapes; the server's tools/list carries the same descriptions. The set stays small on purpose: the agent composes them.

Group	Tool	What it does	Cost
Company	`ticker_lookup`	Name, brand or ticker substring → canonical symbols, historical names included	free
	`company_search`	Natural-language description → companies with a match reason; US / CN / JP / HK / KR; all matches returned	3–5 cr
Filings	`filing_list`	Which filings are indexed for a ticker: fiscal period, type, filing date	0.1 cr
	`filing_search`	Search one company's filings; returns structured as-reported facts and the filing text together	0.1 cr
Datasets	`list_tables`	Alt-data category index, or the tables under up to five categories	free
	`get_table_schema`	One table's columns, types and usage note — required filters, coverage, gotchas	free
	`run_sql`	One read-only PostgreSQL SELECT over the financial, market and alt-data tables	0.1 cr
Signal	`industry_inflections`	Industry changes synthesized from many US earnings calls: mechanism, scope, degree, per-company impact	1 cr
	`ai_adoption`	Concrete enterprise AI applications disclosed on US earnings calls: workflow, stage, value, evidence	1 cr
	`news_search`	Semantic search over company and market news: storylines, events, attributed claims	0.2 cr

What the data is

Built by drillr from primary sources — filings taken from each market's official channel (SEC EDGAR, cninfo, EDINET) and parsed in house, what companies publish on the web (IR pages, earnings calls, news), and drillr's own estimates. No data vendor in between. Every reported figure links back to the passage it was filed in. Provenance per dataset: https://drillr.ai/docs/provenance.

Dataset	What is in it	How to reach it	Coverage
Company	Ticker resolution from any name, code, ISIN, CIK or CUSIP; discovery by description; profile (exchange, industry, listing date, website, headcount)	`ticker_lookup`, `company_search`; `company_snapshot` via SQL	US CN JP (discovery + HK KR)
Filings	Filing index with form type, date and official link; full-text search in EN / ZH / JA; as-reported fact records with value, unit, period, filing and position, linked in a knowledge graph so the right version of a figure wins	`filing_list`, `filing_search`	US CN JP
Financials	Income statement, balance sheet, cash flow as reported under each market's standard, annual and quarterly; precomputed valuation, margin, return, growth, leverage and liquidity metrics	`run_sql` on `financial_statements`, `company_snapshot`	US JP HK CN KR
Prices	Daily / weekly / monthly OHLCV, indices, pre- and after-market quotes	`run_sql` on `price_volume_history`, `index_price`, `equity_extended_rt`	equities US JP HK CN KR; indices, FX, crypto, commodities
Earnings	Calendar with estimates and actuals; structured call summaries (highlights, guidance, risks, segments, Q&A)	`run_sql` on `earning_call_calendar`, `earning_call_summary`	US JP
Ownership	Insider holdings and transactions (Forms 3 / 4 / 5); institutional quarterly positions (13F-HR)	`run_sql` on `insider_and_institution_activities`	US
Events	8-K corporate events: executive changes, deals, debt issuance, securities offerings; 13D / G stake changes	`run_sql` on `executive_change`, `company_deal_events`, `debt_issuance`, `securities_offering`	US
Executives	Roster with status; annual compensation from DEF 14A	`run_sql` on `executive_profile`, `executive_compensation`	US
Analyst	Individual rating and target changes; consensus distribution and targets	`run_sql` on `analyst_ratings`, `analyst_ratings_consensus`	US
Signal	Conclusions drawn by drillr with the evidence quoted: industry inflections, enterprise AI adoption, cross-source news storylines and attributed claims	`industry_inflections`, `ai_adoption`, `news_search`	US (news: US CN JP + macro)
Alt-data (secondary)	9 categories, 65 tables around the AI supply chain and macro: energy & power, data centers, semiconductors, compute pricing, model development, inference economics, macro & trade, prediction markets, critical minerals	`list_tables` → `get_table_schema` → `run_sql`	global

Ticker forms: US bare (AAPL), A-shares .SH / .SZ (600519.SH), Japan .T (6758.T), Hong Kong .HK (00700.HK), Korea .KS / .KQ (005930.KS); indices ^GSPC; quote symbols with . or ^ in SQL. Freshness: filings, ownership and events within minutes of the filing; calls and news within minutes to hours; statements and analyst data daily.

Benchmark: the drillr MCP-powered model scores 94.06 % on Vals Finance Agent, and drillr publishes its own restatement-aware benchmark — https://drillr.ai/drillr-benchmark.

REST API

The same data as 29 typed REST endpoints for scripts and pipelines — one X-API-KEY header, JSON out, public OpenAPI 3.1 contract:

Terminal

curl -H "X-API-KEY: $DRILLR_API_KEY" \
  "https://gateway.drillr.ai/api/v2/income-statements?ticker=AAPL&period=FY&limit=4"

Reference: https://drillr.ai/docs/api · Contract: https://gateway.drillr.ai/api/v2/openapi.json. The older /api/v1/data/* tool mirrors are documented in docs/rest-api.md.

Pricing and limits

One credit wallet across MCP and REST. Free: 80 credits on sign-up. Plus $29 / 300 cr per month, Ultra $99 / 1,500 cr, Enterprise for redistribution and SLA. run_sql returns 100 rows (500 on Ultra), 10 s per statement, 5 in flight; company_search is capped per day (20 / 100 / 500). Failed calls are not billed. https://drillr.ai/pricing

Out of scope

Private or unlisted companies · on-chain crypto metrics (CEX prices only) · options chains, order book, tick data · placing orders · drillr does not produce its own price forecasts.
