What it does
NewsAI is a remote MCP server that provides AI agents with structured access to real-time news headlines and article search across 7 regions and multiple languages. It exposes three tools covering top headlines, predefined category search, and custom keyword search with recency filtering. It is aimed at developers building news briefing agents, research assistants, and market intelligence workflows.
- Fetch top headlines for a specific region to give an agent current situational awareness for daily briefing workflows.
- Search news by a custom keyword such as 'AI regulation' or 'electric vehicles' filtered to the last 24 hours for market monitoring pipelines.
- Retrieve articles from a predefined category like TECHNOLOGY or BUSINESS for a specific region to ground content generation in current events.

Before you enable it
An MCP server runs with whatever access you give it. Start with a development account rather than production, and check which tools the server exposes before you let an agent call them unattended.
