Recordwire MCP server

U.S. business-registry data and change events for agents. Search companies, read their history, and get told when they change: new formations, name changes, status changes (dissolved, revoked, reinstated), address, registered-agent, and officer changes. Data comes from official state sources: bulk files and open data where states publish them, and the state's own public business search where they do not.

Connect

Claude Code:

claude mcp add recordwire --transport http https://api.recordwirehq.com/mcp \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer $RECORDWIRE_API_KEY"

Cursor, Claude Desktop, or any client that takes a JSON config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "recordwire": {
      "url": "https://api.recordwirehq.com/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_KEY" }
    }
  }
}

initialize and tools/list work without a key, so you can see the tools before signing up.
