The Dedale Intelligence MCP integration connects your AI assistant directly to our full intelligence base: company profiles, expert transcripts, analyst reports, deal data, all in natural language, without switching tools. Your team queries Dedale the same way they already ask questions to Claude, ChatGPT or Copilot. The answers come back sourced, with links to the underlying report, transcript or company page.

Since launch, clients have been using it to run company deep dives before a first call, screen targets against a thesis, pull competitive landscapes on a sector, and cross-check expert sentiment on a company already in the portfolio. Here is what changed in October 2026.

Evidence Search

Previously, getting a comprehensive answer on a topic required running separate searches across expert interviews and analyst reports. Evidence Search does it in one call. Ask something like "What do experts and reports say about pricing pressure in mid-market GRC software since 2024?" and the assistant returns the best-matched answers across all sources, balanced and labelled by origin, in a single response.

For deal teams preparing for an IC, this means a first read on a market or a company in the time it used to take to open the platform.

Company profiles now include relationships

Company profiles now return the company's competitors and investors with ownership details, each linking back to the platform page. Combined with Company Comparables, which finds companies similar to a target and ranks them by expert coverage, a peer set that used to take several manual searches now comes back in one prompt: "Find ten companies comparable to this one in the DACH region."

Investor Get

Pull a fund's full profile, KPIs in the fund's currency, and portfolio of majority and minority holdings in one request. Useful for portfolio monitoring and for understanding who owns what in a sector before reaching out.

Revenue that matches the platform

Every revenue figure the assistant returns now matches the company page exactly, with its year and source. Modelled estimates are labelled as ranges, and a missing figure is reported as unknown rather than zero, so a screen no longer excludes a company just because its revenue is not publicly confirmed.

What is coming next

Company Match will let your assistant find a company by website or domain, with a confidence grade on every match. Deal List will return deals for given companies or investors filtered by date, type, sector and region in one request, instead of one search per name. Transcripts Get will read up to ten interviews at once, summaries first, with full content only for the ones the assistant needs to quote.

Also in development

An official Dedale Intelligence listing in Claude's directory, with a plugin that installs the research skill with the connection and keeps it up to date automatically.

Updated research skill, October 2026 edition

The research skill teaches your assistant how to run Dedale-grade research: which tool to use for which question, how to cite, how to structure outputs. The October 2026 edition is updated for every new tool in this release and includes playbooks for company deep dives, competitive landscapes, investment thesis, M&A target screening, market sizing, portfolio monitoring, and retention and churn. Once installed, the assistant picks the right playbook automatically based on the question.
