API & MCP — Prospector Labs

One key. Every product.

Every dataset on the platform is queryable via REST or MCP, returned in the same enriched schema as the dashboard. Cross-product joins are pre-computed — no client-side stitching.

/projects

Interconnection projects

Interconnection queue projects with construction stage, capacity, technology, credit eligibility, and developer joins. Defaults to the ISO transmission queue; add population=all for distribution and DG-program rows.

GET /projects?iso=ERCOT&construction_stage=late
GET /projects/A01?region=PJM

/dg

DG installations

Distributed generation installations from state programs, EIA filings, and county permit offices, with an investability screen.

GET /dg/investable?state=NJ
GET /dg/projects?state=TX

/developers

Developers

Developer profiles with completion rates, tier scoring, portfolio composition, and capital posture.

GET /developers/search?q=nextera
GET /developers?tier=A

/datacenters

Data centers

Facilities with operator, market, capacity, and grid-impact analysis, cross-referenced against the interconnection queue.

GET /datacenters/summary
GET /datacenters/pipeline?state=VA

/tax-credits

ITC / PTC stacking

Base ITC and PTC with energy community, low-income, and domestic content overlays. Updated to Treasury guidance.

GET /tax-credits/calculate?technology=solar
&capacity_mw=5&state=NJ

/lmp

Market data

Locational marginal prices and capacity auction results by ISO and zone.

GET /lmp/daily?iso=ERCOT
GET /capacity/prices?iso=PJM

MCP — Model Context Protocol

Built for AI agents, not just humans.

Drop our MCP server into Claude Desktop, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client. Your agent gets first-class access to 34 tools — query projects, screen suppliers, score developers, calculate tax credits — without you writing a single API integration.

Same key as REST. Same data, same enrichment, same refresh cadence.

# 1. Install
pip install prospector-energy-mcp

# 2. Add to your MCP client
prospector-mcp --key $PROSPECTOR_API_KEY

# 3. Ask your agent
> Find late-stage solar projects
> in ERCOT under 100 MW with
> clear FEOC supply chains.
