    58 tools and 13 skills that use them. Pay per use from one balance, no API keys.

    How to choose the best news tool or MCP for you

    Topic or company

    Topic searches find coverage of a subject. Company tools take a domain or name and return news about that company, some with sentiment or event types.

    Dates and freshness

    Give a time window and have your agent show each article's date and source. A news search ranks recent coverage; a general web search may not.

    Headlines or full text

    Search results give headlines and snippets. Read the full article before your agent quotes it, summarizes it or checks a claim.

    Country and language

    Coverage differs by country and language. For a local market, pass both, or use Google News for that edition.

    Why use Agensi instead of separate news MCPs?

    Exa, Tavily and Brave each run their own search MCP server, and dedicated news APIs come with their own plans and keys. Most news jobs mix sources: a topic search, Google News for one country, company news for an account list and the full text of the articles that matter. We put them behind one connection and one balance, so your agent can combine them in one briefing and tell you what each call cost. Failed calls are free.

    When another way is the better choice. Your own news API plan is the better choice when you monitor thousands of articles a day, need archives that go back years or want licensed full text to republish. Agensi fits research, daily briefings and checks you run a few times a day.

    Set up in your AI agent

    Connect your AI agent to Agensi once, sign in and click Allow. After that it can use every tool: it runs one from your balance and tells you what it cost. No API keys or provider accounts.

    1. Open Settings, then Connectors, then Browse connectors and add Agensi (or Add custom connector and paste https://mcp.agensi.io/mcp/auth).
    2. Sign in to Agensi and click Allow. One agent per account: connecting a new one disconnects the old one.
    3. Ask for what you want, for example: "Make me a morning briefing on our 5 biggest competitors: news from the last 24 hours, one line per story with the date and link." Top up from $5 if your balance is low; failed uses are free.

    Grok, VS Code, GitHub Copilot, Cline, Kiro and other agents with remote MCP and sign-in work too: see the setup guide.

    Combine news tools with skills

    News API: frequently asked questions

    A news API returns news articles as data: headline, source, date, link and often a snippet or the full text. Your AI agent can search it by topic, company or country and work with the results in the same task. On Agensi, every news tool runs through one MCP connection and is paid per call.

    Yes. Our Google News tools return what Google News shows for a keyword, country and language, with title, source, date and link. They pick a provider per call, and your agent pays per call from your Agensi balance, with no Google account or API key. Ask for the date of each story to keep briefings fresh.

    Yes. Company news tools take a domain or company name and return recent articles, some scored for sentiment or sorted into events such as funding, hires or launches. Your agent can run them for a whole account list and summarize what changed since the last check.

    Our feed tool reads any RSS or Atom feed, such as a publisher's feed or a news search feed, and returns the items as data: title, link, date, author and summary. Check each feed's terms before you build on it. For Google News by keyword and country, the Google News tools are simpler.
