Online investment platform Webull Corporation (NASDAQ: BULL) today announced an expansion of its Model Context Protocol (MCP) capabilities, enabling eligible Webull users to leverage AI assistants to research markets, analyze their portfolios, and prepare trades through Webull’s cloud-based MCP server without requiring programming knowledge, API credentials, or software installation.

Webull’s Cloud MCP is a fully managed, Webull-hosted server that connects compatible AI assistants to Webull’s market intelligence, account information, and investment tools. With the latest update, authorized users can move from research and portfolio analysis to trade preparation within the same AI conversation, while maintaining control over every transaction. Each trade requires separate customer confirmation before an order can be submitted to the market.

The expanded Cloud MCP capabilities enable eligible Webull users to:

• Access real-time and historical market data across stocks, ETFs, options, futures, crypto, and event contracts
• Research company fundamentals and filings
• Run market screeners and analyze investment opportunities
• View authorized account balances, positions and order history
• Manage watchlists
• Prepare orders based on an AI-assisted research workflow.

“AI is changing how investors access information and interact with their brokerage accounts,” said Anthony Denier, Group President and U.S. CEO of Webull. “By bringing trading capabilities to Cloud MCP, we’re making it easier for investors to move from research to action through the AI platforms they already use, while keeping them in control of every trade.”

Unlike Webull’s local MCP server, Cloud MCP does not require users to install software, generate API credentials, or manage access keys. Customers can connect their existing Webull account through supported AI platforms, authorize the accounts and capabilities they want to make available, and begin using Webull tools through a conversational interface.

“Cloud MCP represents another step toward making Webull’s technology available wherever investors choose to engage with AI,” said Jack Keating, CEO of Webull Tech US and Head of Institutional. “As AI assistants become a more natural part of how people research and make decisions, we’re creating a more seamless way for investors to move from understanding the market to taking action.”

The expanded Cloud MCP brings research, portfolio analysis and trade preparation into a single workflow. Investors can ask questions about their portfolios, access live market information, evaluate an investment thesis, and have the AI assistant prepare a corresponding order without switching between research platforms, spreadsheets and their brokerage account. Orders must be separately confirmed through Webull before execution.

Cloud MCP is currently available to eligible Webull users in the United States through supported AI platforms including Claude, Perplexity and Grok, with availability through ChatGPT pending platform approval. Webull is also working to expand availability to additional markets and AI platforms.
