Crime Data MCP · Live

Built for the Agentic Web

Agents don't use APIs the way humans do. They reason mid-call, chain tool outputs, and need structured data — not search results to interpret.

SpotCrime data reaches MCP-compatible agents through CrimeScore, whose live MCP server gives Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, and any MCP client a native published_scoretool — a national crime percentile for any U.S. ZIP or county, on demand, inside the agent loop. One HTTP endpoint. No RAG pipeline.
