MCP servers are the latest buzz in the AI landscape, and everyone seems eager to get a piece of the action. In simple terms, MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers are REST API servers that act as a bridge between large language models (LLMs) and various external systems. For instance, a financial MCP server can provide real-time stock prices, breaking news, and other critical data, empowering LLMs to make smarter, more informed decisions.

In this article, we will explore more than 30 MCP servers across a variety of categories, including databases, web search engines, financial APIs, communication platforms (e.g. Slack), memory servers for long-term storage, productivity tools, file systems, and even coding environments. 

You can learn to build your own MCP server using Python by following the tutorial on building a simple MCP server.

Final Thoughts

 
I love using MCP servers. They are incredibly easy to create and integrate with Claude Desktop. MCP servers may seem like a simple integration, but they provide superpowers to your LLMs, enabling them to extract context and perform tasks effortlessly. For example, you can ask Claude to search the web for the latest gold prices and then use that data to generate a line chart. It will use the web service MCP server to collect the data and the Python MCP server to generate and display the line plot.

I would love to hear about your favorite MCP server in the comments. Mine is Spotify, as it allows me to control my playlists and navigate Spotify using natural language commands. It’s seamless and incredibly fun to use!
