If you’ve ever built or used an AI agent in Web3, you’ve probably run into this problem:

The agent talks a big game…

But when it comes to real wallet context, it’s basically flying blind.

Sure, it might recognize an address. Maybe even check Etherscan. But does it actually know what that wallet holds?

Not really.

The Problem

Web3 wallets are complex.

They can hold tokens, NFTs, staked assets, LP positions, lending vaults, collateral, you name it, often across five or six chains. And yet most AI systems can’t answer basic questions like:

  • What’s this wallet’s net position?
  • Are they overexposed to a specific asset?
  • Do they have any risky DeFi loans?
  • Are their tokens sitting idle or working?

And if you’re the one building that agent?

You’re stuck writing custom scrapers, querying dozens of APIs, and dealing with edge cases on every protocol. It’s painful.

Enter: Datai MCP

Datai MCP is like giving your agent a sixth sense for wallet activity.

It’s a lightweight server that takes a wallet address and instantly returns clean, structured data about what’s inside, tokens, NFTs, DeFi positions, across Ethereum, Arbitrum, Polygon, BSC, Base, and more.

No scraping. No stitching together ten protocols. No writing your own indexer.

Just plug in an address, and MCP handles the rest.

Picture This

You’re building a portfolio assistant.

A user connects their wallet.

Behind the scenes, your agent calls get_all_defi_positions.

Now it knows the user is:

  • Providing liquidity in Uniswap V3
  • Borrowing stablecoins against stETH on Aave
  • Holding LP tokens on Curve
  • Sitting on 30 idle tokens across 3 chains

Your agent can now explain this in plain English, flag risks, suggest improvements — all with context that makes sense.

And the best part? You didn’t build a single integration. MCP did the heavy lifting.

Built for Builders

Even if you’re not writing code yourself, the setup is designed to be dead simple.

Point your AI tool (like Claude or Cursor) to the MCP server and provide your Datai API key. That’s it.

It works with most major agent frameworks and LLM environments.

Behind the scenes, it fetches fresh portfolio data using the same pipeline that powers Datai Network’s own analytics engine.
