Katzilla

  • codeislaw101/katzilla

Katzilla is a MCP server that exposes 300+ public and government data sources through one API key for AI agents.

About

Katzilla is an MCP server that aggregates more than three hundred free public and government data sources behind a single Katzilla API key, aimed at agents that need defensible facts during research and scoping. developers often stall on idea validation because each dataset lives on a different portal with its own auth story; Katzilla compresses that into one stdio MCP package you run with npx after setting KATZILLA_API_KEY. The canonical shelf is Idea research, but the same connector supports Validate when you need numbers for positioning and Build when you embed live stats in a product demo. It is a data gateway MCP, not a visualization or ETL pipeline—your agent still chooses queries and interprets results. Get a free key from the Katzilla dashboard before registering the server in Claude Code or Cursor.

  • 300+ free public and government data sources behind one API key
  • MCP server @katzilla/mcp on npm (version 0.1.1) with stdio transport
  • Requires KATZILLA_API_KEY from katzilla.dev dashboard
  • Designed for AI agents that need factual external data, not scraped HTML
  • Reduces bespoke connector work for indie research and demo features

What it does

Pull public and government datasets through one API key so your agent can ground ideas and prototypes in real numbers.

Who is it for?

Best when you're doing market or civic data research and agents that must cite real public statistics early in the journey.

Skip if: Products that need proprietary paid data warehouses or strict on-prem-only government networks without cloud keys.

What you get

After you set KATZILLA_API_KEY, your agent can query hundreds of public datasets without building per-source integrations.

  • Unified access to 300+ public and government sources via MCP
  • Agent-ready external data for research and scoped features

By the numbers

  • 300+ public and government data sources
  • npm package @katzilla/mcp version 0.1.1
  • Required secret env KATZILLA_API_KEY

How it compares

Open-data aggregation MCP, not a spreadsheet skill or internal database connector.
