Of history your assistant can query

  • Native MCP, not a wrapper

    25 typed tools across currencies, FX pairs, crypto and metals — an exchange rate MCP server whose rates, conversion, spot prices and history any MCP-compatible assistant or agent framework can call directly.

  • FX data for AI agents, in the major assistants

    ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and autonomous agent frameworks — one server, consistent tools everywhere.

  • Tools grow with your plan

    Core rate and history tools on One, FX trading pair tools on Extra, and the full toolset — OHLC, realtime and the six metals tools — on Premium.

  • No separate billing

    MCP calls draw from your standard 1,000,000 monthly allowance. Nothing extra to buy or manage.

How it works

From zero to agent-ready in minutes.

No SDK, no glue code, no schema to maintain. Four steps and your assistant is wired to live FX & metals data.

  1. 1. Create your account

    Sign up at console.fastforex.io. The 7-day free trial and every paid plan include MCP access.

  2. 2. Add the server

    Point your client at mcp.fastforex.io/mcp — one URL for every assistant and agent framework.

  3. 3. Authorize

    Approve the OAuth flow your LLM triggers, or embed your API key in the server URL instead.

  4. 4. Tools appear

    Your LLM explores the server and auto-discovers every tool your plan includes. Start asking.

Works with the tools you already use.

Any client that speaks the Model Context Protocol connects with the same URL. Setup guides for each:

Remote MCP URL: https://mcp.fastforex.io/mcp

Tool reference

25 tools, auto-discovered.

Your assistant finds these itself — no manual wiring. Which tools appear depends on your plan: core rates on One, FX pairs on Extra, everything on Premium.

MCP Server — FAQ.

The details developers ask about before integrating.

Which assistants are supported?

How do I connect?
