AI models gain real-time data access via Apify's MCP server

A new guide details how to integrate large language models like Claude and ChatGPT with real-time product data using Apify's Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. This setup allows AI models to access live information from e-commerce sites, overcoming limitations of static training data. The process involves configuring Claude Desktop or ChatGPT's developer mode to connect to Apify's MCP server, which exposes a vast library of web scraping and data extraction tools as callable functions. This enables the AI to fetch accurate, structured product details on demand, significantly improving its ability to act as a shopping agent. AI
