Advisorfinder MCP Server

AdvisorFinder MCP Server

An MCP server that gives AI assistants access to SEC-registered financial advisor data. Search advisors by name, look up full profiles, check disclosure histories, and get risk assessments — all from within Claude or any MCP-compatible client.

Built by AdvisorFinder.

Quick Start

Install

pip install advisorfinder-mcp

Configure Claude Desktop

Add to your Claude Desktop config (~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json on macOS):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "advisorfinder": {
      "command": "advisorfinder-mcp"
    }
  }
}

Restart Claude Desktop. Then just ask naturally — "look up my financial advisor John Smith" — and Claude will call the tools automatically.

Alternative: Run with uvx (no install needed)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "advisorfinder": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["advisorfinder-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

What You Can Ask

Once configured, just talk to Claude naturally:

• "Give me a full profile on Jane Doe at Wells Fargo"
• "Look up financial advisor Thomas Kopelman"
• "Search for advisors named Smith in New York"
• "Is my advisor safe? Their name is John Doe, he's at Edward Jones in Texas"
• "Tell me about Edward Jones as a firm — how many advisors do they have?"
• "How many registered advisors are in the SEC database?"

No CRD numbers needed. Just use the advisor's name, firm, or state.

Tools

When an advisor isn't found in our database, all tools return direct links to SEC IAPD and FINRA BrokerCheck so you can still find them through official sources.

Resources

Reference data that AI assistants can read for context:

Data Coverage

What's included: 433,000+ investment advisors registered with the SEC, including employment history, exam records, professional designations, outside business activities, disclosure events (complaints, regulatory actions, criminal matters, terminations, bankruptcies), and registration status across all 50 states.

What's not included: Advisors registered only as broker-dealer representatives (not investment advisers) may not appear. For broker-only registrations, the tools provide direct links to FINRA BrokerCheck. Fee schedules, assets under management, client reviews, and investment performance are not available — those require Form ADV filings or other sources.

Data is sourced from the SEC Investment Adviser Public Disclosure (IAPD) database, updated monthly.
