What is the Data Graph API?
The Data Graph API consolidates multiple enrichment services — risk, demographics, property, identity, schools, neighborhoods, telecomm, and more — into a single unified API. All data is linked via PreciselyID, enabling richer, contextual enrichment from one connection. Access it at developer.cloud.precisely.com/apis/data-graph.
Is there an MCP Server available?
Yes. The Precisely MCP Server exposes data integrity capabilities as reusable tools for LLMs and AI agents via the open Model Context Protocol. Download it at github.com/PreciselyData/precisely-mcp-servers.
