Neumann Overview

Neumann MCP server turns uncertain inputs and model formulas into Monte Carlo forecasts for costs, schedules, capacity, revenue, and investment returns. It exposes tools for simulation, sensitivity ranking, scenario summaries, model validation, cost estimation, and distribution conversion. Use it when a single estimate is not enough and you need percentiles, target probabilities, or the assumptions driving an outcome. Anonymous use includes three free runs per UTC day, while larger or additional runs use account credits.

Primary Use Cases for Neumann:
  • Forecast project costs from low, likely, and high estimates
  • Estimate delivery-date and schedule risk
  • Measure the chance of staying within a budget
  • Rank assumptions that drive revenue or capacity
