Model Context Protocol
What is an MCP server?
An open standard for tools
MCP stands for Model Context Protocol. The standard describes how an AI assistant talks to a server that offers it tools: the assistant requests the list of tools, calls one with parameters and takes the result into its answer. Anthropic published the protocol in 2024; today Claude, ChatGPT, Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and many other clients speak it.
What the profitkonsole MCP server delivers
Thirteen read tools: the profit and loss of a period, the comparison of two periods, the daily trend, metrics per brand, category or product, product lists, ad performance per campaign or item, the search terms behind your ads and individual orders with costs and contribution margin, plus result, daily trend and items for every further channel in your plan. Every figure arrives already calculated, with a label, unit and status: recorded, preliminary or not recorded. Answers with ad figures state the ad data cut-off, so the assistant does not set revenue up to today against ad costs up to the day before yesterday.
Coming nextOne login for your channels
The assistant queries the channels connected in your account: OTTO, Amazon, Kaufland, eBay, Shopify, bol.com and Temu. One account, one access, no key per channel.
Sign-in, permissions, limits
The connection runs through signing in with your profitkonsole account (OAuth 2.1), not through a key. The assistant reads totals and lists, no customer data, and changes nothing. You see connected assistants under Settings → MCP and disconnect them there with one click. Each account has 2,000 requests per day.
MCP server or Cortex?
Cortex is the assistant inside profitkonsole itself, currently under maintenance. The MCP server brings the same numbers into the assistant you already use, with your context, your files and your habits. Both are included in both plans.
