brightdata-mcp

The Bright Data Model Context Protocol (MCP) server provides a platform for LLMs, agents, and applications to access, discover, and extract real-time web data. It allows MCP clients like Claude Desktop, Cursor, and Windsurf to search the web, navigate websites, and retrieve data without being blocked, making it ideal for web scraping tasks. The server offers features such as real-time web access, geo-restriction bypass, web unlocker capabilities, browser control, and seamless integration with MCP-compatible AI assistants. Users can set up the server with an API token and optional browser control tools for enhanced functionality.
