Use AEI inside the tools analysts already work in.

Full Access / Team / Institutional

AEI exposes source-linked projects, project-finance comparables and decision workflows through the existing REST API and a stateless MCP endpoint. Organisation administrators can issue revocable integration keys from Team Workspace.

MCP

POST https://africaenergyintel.com/api/mcp

Transport: Streamable HTTP / JSON-RPC. Protocol: 2026-07-28. Authentication: Authorization: Bearer <AEI key>.

Tools: search_projects, project_finance_comparables, run_decision_workflow.

The endpoint also supports server/discover and tools/list. It is stateless and validates browser origins.

Excel

Comparables export is a native .xlsx workbook. For refreshable analysis, Excel Power Query can call authenticated AEI REST endpoints using the organisation or Full Access API key.
