Longbridge Launches Industry’s First Brokerage MCP to Enable AI for Market Analysis and Trading

Published

on

SINGAPORE, May 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — As AI technology becomes increasingly integrated into the financial industry, the connection between AI agents and financial services has emerged as a key area of innovation. Longbridge Singapore, a next-generation internet broker, has pioneered the first broker-integrated Model Context Protocol (MCP) in the financial industry—LongPort MCP. This groundbreaking service empowers professional investors to interact with AI using natural language, enabling instant access to market data, assisting in submitting trade orders, managing account assets, and performing other core financial services, thereby facilitating seamless AI adoption for professional investors.

Longbridge Debuts Industry-First Broker-Integrated MCP

With advancements in large language models (LLMs), investors are increasingly exploring the use of AI for accessing financial data, obtaining real-time market insights, and implementing AI-driven trading. Traditionally, this process required substantial programming expertise and a significant time investment to build integrations and ensure accurate semantic understanding, presenting high barriers to entry.

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that establishes a standardized interface for transferring contextual information between LLMs and external tools or data sources. Similar to how USB provides a universal connection standard for devices, MCP serves as a unified protocol for AI agents to connect with various tools and datasets. 

Developed by the LongPort technology team, LongPort MCP leverages MCP’s capability to efficiently read data, allowing AI to interact directly with securities services. LongPort MCP is now officially available on the Longbridge website and has simultaneously launched on GitHub, the world’s largest open-source developer platform, as well as on the largest MCP service platform.

Out-of-the-Box MCP Service Empowers AI with Investment and Trading Capabilities

LongPort MCP offers three core capabilities designed to meet the majority of investment analysis and trading needs for AI agents today:

Smart Investment Assistant: Through MCP services, AI agents can rapidly access real-time market data, generate market analyses, and facilitate trade execution via API, delivering a highly efficient user experience.Account Management Assistant – Investors can use natural language commands to instruct AI agents to check account balances, profit and loss status, and historical transaction records, and generate asset reports quickly using real-time brokerage services.Real-Time Risk Monitoring – AI agents can dynamically invoke risk assessment services, monitor portfolio risks in real-time, and prompt alerts based on user-defined parameters and mitigation strategies.

In practice, the LongPort technology team has enabled natural language interaction to facilitate AI-assisted trade execution. For example, when a user inputs an instruction such as “Buy 100 shares of Stock A at $250,” the order is processed through the system, with real-time confirmation provided via the AI interface. This natural language interface unlocks a wide range of new trading scenarios.

The LongPort MCP service offers a key advantage by providing an out-of-the-box MCP service that supports natural language access to core brokerage functions, significantly lowering the technical barrier for investors utilizing LongPort OpenAPI. This paves a new, highly efficient pathway for professional investors without a programming background to build AI-assisted market analysis and trading capabilities.

LLMs Text Lowers Programming Barriers and Supports Strategy Development

In tandem with MCP, the LongPort team also launched “LLMs Text”, a complementary application designed to help quantitative investors build trading strategies using natural language prompts.

In line with its commitment to delivering high-quality trading services, LongPort has completely rewritten its OpenAPI documentation in the LLMs Text format. By integrating this format into AI coding tools such as Cursor, developers can enable AI to treat the documentation as a comprehensive API reference, allowing for seamless access to resources and the ability to resources and the ability to generate strategy code from natural language commands. 

With LLMs Text, quantitative investors can significantly reduce the time spent on manual coding, allowing them to focus on developing and optimizing trading strategies. Investors interested in building AI agents to assist in market analysis and trading using either MCP or LLMs Text can find comprehensive setup instructions on the LLM section of the LongPort OpenAPI website. 

Longbridge remains committed to empowering investors with advanced AI tools, pioneering new applications in financial services, and lowering the barriers to investment and trading. Longbridge continues to push AI-driven finance forward — broadening access to advanced analysis and trading capabilities.

EcoMatcher Unveils Tree Personas

A New Nature Interface for Engaging with Your Trees, in Any Language

HONG KONG, April 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — EcoMatcher, a Certified B Corporation that enables companies to plant and track trees transparently, today announced Tree Personas, a new Nature Interface designed to make tree gifting and sustainability engagement more personal, interactive, and memorable.

With Tree Personas, companies can assign a distinct digital personality to each gifted tree, enabling recipients to virtually visit their tree in TreeTracker 3D, chat with it through TreeChat+ in their own language, and learn about its growth, local environment, and real-world impact.

Tree Personas build on EcoMatcher’s earlier TreeChat, which introduced chatbot-powered conversations with trees, only in English. While TreeChat enabled interaction, Tree Personas shape how a tree communicates in any language – from curious and playful to calm and reflective – while all environmental data, location, and impact metrics remain authentic and unchanged.

EcoMatcher describes Tree Personas as a Nature Interface — a new category of digital interface that allows people to interact with real ecosystems through digital companions connected to living trees. The company believes Nature Interfaces can help reconnect people with nature in an increasingly digital world.

Rather than passively receiving information about a planted tree, users can build an ongoing relationship with it — asking questions, learning about its ecosystem, and following its growth over time. Even when users are away, Tree Personas continue to evolve digitally, encouraging people to return and discover new reflections, observations, and updates.

“Trees are essential for life on Earth, yet most people rarely have a personal connection with them,” said Bas Fransen, CEO of EcoMatcher. “Tree Personas turn planted trees into interactive companions that help people learn about nature and build deeper connections with the ecosystems that support us.”

Meet the First Tree Personas

EcoMatcher introduces three Tree Personas available to companies gifting trees, all inspired by real ecological stages and behaviours of trees:

Twiggles: A young, curious tree highlighting small discoveries in nature.Oakly: A grounded, thoughtful tree sharing ecosystems insights.Seren: A calm, reflective tree encouraging deeper connections with nature.

Companies can also collaborate with EcoMatcher to create custom Tree Personas aligned with their brand values, sustainability goals, or storytelling needs.

EcoMatcher will share more about the background and opportunities of Tree Personas during its upcoming Demo Day on April 27. To sign up, visit www.ecomatcher.com/demo.

About EcoMatcher

EcoMatcher is a Certified B Corporation that enables companies to integrate transparent tree planting into their business. Through its technology platform, organizations can plant trees, track them digitally, and engage employees and customers in sustainability. EcoMatcher’s customers include Dubai Islamic Bank, Grab, Infosys, and Singlife.
