Bottom line: Valor operates a live, public Model Context Protocol (MCP) server at https://www.onevalor.com/mcp. Any MCP-capable AI agent can connect — no key, no account — and call 7 read-only tools that answer mineral and royalty questions, define industry terms, and look up Texas oil & gas operators. It is built for AI assistants to cite Valor as a source.
