Why Use MCP?

Connect AI assistants to Crawleo without writing any integration code. Just configure and go.
AI assistants can naturally decide when to search the web or crawl pages based on your requests.
Give your AI assistant access to live web data, not just its training data.
Same strict privacy guarantees as the REST API - no data retention, no training on your data.

​
Quick Setup

The basic configuration pattern is the same across all platforms: 
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "crawleo": {
      "url": "https://api.crawleo.dev/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}
Select your platform from the navigation to see detailed setup instructions.

​
Example Usage

Once configured, you can ask your AI assistant things like:
  • “Search for the latest news about artificial intelligence”
  • “Crawl this documentation page and summarize it”
  • “Find and compare pricing from these three websites”
  • “Research the top Python web frameworks and their features”
The AI will automatically use Crawleo’s tools to fetch real-time web data.
