FactIQ connects an agent to official statistics, SEC filings, earnings-call transcripts and market data. The agent can search for data series, run read-only SQL and return a sourced answer, chart JSON or report JSON.
It runs as a remote MCP server. Tool calls send arguments such as search terms, SQL statements, tickers and regions to FactIQ. Sign in through a browser or use a personal API key. FactIQ records connector inputs and outputs, so check what your agent sends before using it with project data.
