# Ploti MCP

> Bring Ploti real estate research data, ordinance research, and maps into your AI assistant

# Use Ploti from the assistant you already know

Ploti's remote Model Context Protocol (MCP) server gives compatible AI assistants controlled access to focused real estate research tools. Ask a question in Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor, Claude Code, or Codex; your assistant can search the right area, analyze the available data, and return a map, table, or file without making you copy information between products.

</Frame>

Ask for a comparison table to review the candidates' attributes. Map and table outputs can appear as separate panels in the conversation.

## How it works

<Steps>
  <Step title="Connect Ploti">
    Add `https://mcp.ploti.ai/api/mcp` as a remote MCP server in your assistant.
    Ploti uses OAuth, so you never paste your Ploti password or an API key into
    the assistant.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Approve access">
    Sign in to Ploti, choose a workspace, and approve the connection. The
    assistant receives access only to that workspace through your Ploti account.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Ask in plain language">
    Describe the place, property criteria, or ordinance question. Your assistant
    decides which Ploti tools to use and reports what it is doing.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Review the result">
    Inspect a concise result in the conversation, open the interactive map or
    table, or continue the same work in Ploti.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Plans and data access

Free Ploti MCP workspaces can use nationwide U.S. parcel data and ordinance research. Paid workspaces can also query the additional datasets available in the current map area. Ploti tells the assistant which layers are available before it runs an analysis; it does not silently substitute a locked dataset.

Your assistant provider may require a paid plan or developer setting to use custom MCP servers. See the guide for your assistant for current setup requirements.

<Note>
  Ploti supports research and analysis. Property records and municipal sources
  can be incomplete or change over time, so verify important facts with the
  cited source or appropriate authority before making a decision.
