Tap into the attention data and turn insights into action, with Altmetric’s MCP.
Organizations and institutions are increasingly under pressure to show that research and investments are translating into real-world influence, not just peer acceptance. But media coverage, policy citations, and public engagement data live in separate tools, separate reports, and separate teams, disconnected from the workflows where decisions actually happen.
The Altmetric MCP changes that. It gives your AI agents direct, real-time access to Altmetric’s attention-tracking data, across news media, policy documents, patents, blogs, and online platforms, so the full societal footprint of your research surfaces automatically, inside the workflows your teams already use.
Altmetric is the most comprehensive source of research engagement signals available, trusted by leading research institutions, publishers, and funders globally to demonstrate the real-world reach of scientific output.
Your AI agent can look up the Altmetric attention score, citation count, and full mention breakdown for any publication by DOI or PubMed ID. Ask which of your portfolio outputs is gaining traction in policy circles. Get a ranked view of news outlets covering your therapeutic area. Proactively surface the evidence your teams need, eliminating the time-consuming manual audit.
The Altmetric MCP scales from a single DOI to an entire research portfolio. For teams managing large publication programmes, this means aggregated reach reporting becomes something your AI workflows handle automatically, freeing analysts to interpret the data, not collect it.
Demonstrating societal value is increasingly a condition of funding, not a nice-to-have. Altmetric MCP makes it straightforward for your agents to generate the evidence funders and executives expect: which outputs were covered by major news organisations, which were referenced in government policy, which are shaping public and clinical debate.
