Now generally available to all Introhive customers, the standards-based connection brings continuously updated relationship context into compatible AI assistants.

FREDERICTON, NB, Aug. 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Introhive today announced the general availability of its MCP (Model Context Protocol) Server for all customers. The Introhive MCP Server gives firms a standardized way to connect their relationship intelligence to their AI infrastructure. Professionals can then query that intelligence directly, without switching systems or performing manual lookups, and without needing IT to build custom integrations.

Centralizing enterprise data is only part of the work. For firms building their own AI tools, the difficulty often emerges after the initial connection. Activity data must still be resolved to the correct people and companies, evaluated for relationship strength and recency, and kept current as interactions change. Without that work, an AI tool can be technically connected and still provide poor guidance. Introhive has built and continuously maintains that relationship-intelligence layer. The MCP Server makes it available to compatible AI assistants, agents, and internally developed applications.

Ask which contacts at an upcoming event are worth prioritizing. Find out which key account has gone quiet. Surface which colleague has the warmest path into a new client or expanded opportunity. Or help a firm’s own AI tool assess whether a proposed client introduction is actually warranted — instead of guessing from CRM fields nobody has updated in months.

Most firms are deploying AI without access to one of their most valuable assets: the context around firm-wide relationships. The signals exist across emails, calendars, contact histories and individual experience. Raw activity alone cannot tell an AI tool whether it has identified the correct person, how strong or current a relationship is, or who within the firm has the most credible path forward.

The Introhive MCP Server Advantage

For more than 14 years, Introhive has refined its approach to capturing, validating, and scoring those relationship signals. The platform goes beyond who knows whom; it evaluates factors including the recency, frequency, reciprocity, breadth, and depth of interactions across the firm, then organizes them into a continuously updated, firm-wide relationship graph.

Because MCP is an open standard, firms using the MCP Server can make the same relationship-intelligence layer available to multiple compatible tools rather than rebuilding a separate connection each time their AI environment changes. Unlike a custom API that locks relationship intelligence to a single tool, the MCP Server is model-agnostic by design: the graph doesn’t depend on which AI assistant wins next year, because it was never built into just one of them.

AI Can’t Drive Growth Without Relationship Context

As AI assistants become a more common interface for professional work, the quality of their answers increasingly depends on the intelligence underneath them. For professional services firms, relationships are central to winning new business, expanding client work and protecting important accounts.

The shift toward AI does not reduce the value of those relationships. It raises the cost of not having accurate relationship context available when growth decisions are made.

“I’ve watched enterprise technology evolve since the 1990s, but the shift now underway is more fundamental,” said Lee Blakemore, CEO of Introhive. “The way professionals interact with data and systems has been revolutionized, and the interface is wherever the professional happens to work, which means the intelligence layers underneath it create the value. Relationship intelligence is one of those foundational layers. A meaningful AI strategy must tap into the strength, reach, and trajectory of client relationships. Introhive’s MCP Server provides a secure, compliant, and portable way to make that intelligence available to compatible AI tools at the moment it’s needed. For organizations adopting AI responsibly, this is the infrastructure that helps them do so securely.”

Availability

The Introhive MCP Server is now generally available to all Introhive customers, expanding beyond the legal-sector commercial preview introduced in April 2026.

The Amity Global Research Hub (AGRH) is a multidisciplinary international platform established by Amity University to foster world-class research collaboration, innovation, entrepreneurship, technology commercialization, and policy engagement across global ecosystems. AGRH enables collaborative research that addresses pressing global challenges while creating opportunities for scientific discovery, economic development, and societal transformation.

NEW YORK, Aug. 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — In a significant step towards strengthening India–United States collaboration in science, technology and innovation, the Amity Global Research Hub (AGRH) was inaugurated at the Consulate General of India, New York, on August 21, 2026, under the theme “Shaping the Future through Emerging Technologies.”

The launch marks the beginning of an international research platform envisioned to bring together academic institutions, researchers, industry, innovators and other stakeholders from India, the United States and the wider global ecosystem. The initiative aims to facilitate collaborative research, promote knowledge exchange and create new pathways for innovation and technology-led solutions to global challenges.

The inauguration also witnessed the unveiling of the AGRH website and research brochure, followed by panel discussions focusing on multi-sector partnerships, research, innovation, emerging technologies, and opportunities for strengthening India–US collaboration. The discussions brought together distinguished representatives and academic and research stakeholders from institutions including Rutgers University, Georgia Institute of Technology, CUNY, Long Island University, Albert Einstein College of Medicine and the National Cancer Institute.

Speaking on the occasion, Dr. Aseem Chauhan, Chancellor, Amity University and Chairman, AGRH, highlighted the importance of creating globally connected research ecosystems that can address increasingly complex technological and societal challenges. AGRH is envisioned as more than an international academic presence. It seeks to function as a bridge connecting the research strengths, talent and innovation capabilities of India with the extensive academic, scientific, technological and entrepreneurial ecosystem of the United States.

The initiative comes at a time when emerging technologies are rapidly transforming economies and societies, creating both new opportunities and complex challenges. Technologies such as artificial intelligence, quantum technologies, advanced materials, biotechnology, healthcare technologies, cybersecurity, space technologies and clean and sustainable technologies increasingly require interdisciplinary and international collaboration.

Dr. Sandeep Mittan Director Amity Global Research Hub & Vice President Research and Development highlighted how AGRH will serve as a platform to foster international research partnerships and advance innovation through collaboration between India and the United States. This initiative will be the creation of opportunities for young researchers, students and innovators to participate in international research networks.

AGRH aims to contribute to this process by facilitating interactions among researchers and institutions and supporting opportunities for knowledge exchange and collaborative engagement. The Hub’s broader vision is to create meaningful opportunities not only for established researchers but also for emerging scientists, innovators and entrepreneurs.

The establishment of AGRH in New York provides access to one of the world’s most diverse and dynamic ecosystems of universities, research institutions, technology companies, healthcare organizations, investors, start-ups and global talent. This environment provides significant opportunities for building connections between Indian researchers and their counterparts in the United States. The launch event itself reflected this potential, bringing together representatives from leading American academic and research institutions for discussions around collaborative research and innovation.

Prof. (Dr.) W. Selvamurthy, President, Amity Science, Technology & Innovation Foundation, emphasized the importance of collaboration in shaping the next generation of research and innovation. The multidisciplinary approach of AGRH is particularly significant as many of today’s major challenges cut across traditional academic boundaries. Addressing issues related to health, climate change, energy, advanced manufacturing, digital technologies and national and global security requires researchers from multiple disciplines to work together. The Hub therefore aims to facilitate an ecosystem in which ideas can move from research and discovery to innovation, technology development and societal impact.

Strengthening the India-US Knowledge Partnership : The launch of AGRH also comes against the backdrop of the expanding strategic relationship between India and the United States in science, technology, education and innovation. The initiative’s emphasis on multi-sector partnerships is particularly significant. Rather than limiting collaboration to academic institutions, AGRH aims to create connections involving research organizations, industry, innovators, entrepreneurs and other stakeholders.

The inauguration of AGRH represents an important milestone in Amity’s continued efforts to expand its international research partnerships and strengthen collaboration between India and the United States. The long-term ambition is to develop AGRH into a platform where global research partnerships can generate tangible outcomes-ranging from collaborative research and knowledge exchange to technology development, innovation, entrepreneurship and opportunities for the next generation of researchers.

With its launch in New York, the Amity Global Research Hub seeks to position itself at this intersection-connecting India’s growing research and innovation capabilities with global opportunities, and contributing to a future shaped by collaboration, technology and knowledge.
