Overview

AI-generated overview

Hosted People Data Labs server that lets an assistant enrich and search people, companies and job postings, identify individuals, and enrich IP addresses.

What you can do
  • Enrich a single person profile from name, email, phone or profile URL, with a match likelihood score
  • Identify a person from ambiguous attributes, returning up to 20 ranked candidate profiles
  • Search the person dataset with Elasticsearch or SQL queries, paginated by scroll token
  • Enrich or search companies for firmographics such as industry, size and location
  • Enrich an IP address with location, company and optional person data
  • Autocomplete search field values and search job postings (beta)
When to use it
Useful for sales, recruiting or research tasks where the assistant needs contact details, firmographics or job-market data about real people and companies, or has to resolve a partial identity into a specific profile.
Requirements
Remote MCP endpoint; no local install. Sign-in uses OAuth, and the login page asks for a People Data Labs API key, which is validated and stored per user. Add only the endpoint URL to the client config, without an Authorization header. A free plan allows 50 tool calls per month; paid plans are available.
Before you install
The server handles personal data about real individuals and sends your queries to People Data Labs; consider privacy and lawful-use obligations. Search results cost credits per returned record, and the free tier is capped at 50 calls a month. Subscription tools can start a paid Stripe checkout or cancel Pro, so confirm with the user before running them. Your People Data Labs API key is entered at the hosted login page.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open People Data Labs MCP by usefulapi in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/io.usefulapi%2Fpeopledatalabs/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows
