LONDON - TelAve -- Hackford has launched Hackford MCP, giving AI agents a direct connection to one of the richest joined datasets on the UK and US financial-services market. Users can search FCA Register data in plain English, refine results with an agent and turn them into a watchlist, saved search or export.

The public FCA Register supports searches by firm or individual name and reference number, with optional location. It does not offer market-wide filters for firm type, permissions, senior-manager appointments, financials or appointed-representative relationships.

Hackford licenses the FCA Register Extract Service and classifies firms by what they do, including wealth managers, hedge fund managers, insurance brokers and regulatory hosts. It joins firms to senior managers, permissions, appointed-representative relationships, company records, SEC adviser filings, regulated AUM, websites, contacts and change data.

"More and more of my work happens in an agent interface such as Claude, Codex or ChatGPT, and that is true for lots of people I speak to. We want to make sure Hackford's data on financial-services firms is available where people need it," said Dan Robinson, founder and CEO of Hackford.

"Hackford MCP means users can query our data directly with their agent of choice, create watchlists and saved searches, and export the data in the format they need. For people using it, the productivity boost can be incredible. Work that previously took hours of searching, refining and copying data can happen inside one conversation."

Director of Business Development at Leo Regtech, Luke Shepherd, tested Hackford MCP and called it "a game changer".

"It took two seconds to connect to Hackford and start querying the FCA Register data in natural language," Shepherd wrote. "Natural language becomes the query language. I do not need to know the field names, the filter syntax or how the data is structured underneath."

"An agent with an MCP connection runs the whole refinement cycle for you while you describe what you want in a sentence. If you can get all of this set up, then your research can be fully automated and save you hours of time every single week. For me it is a game changer and was too good not to share!"
