## What is MCP?

The [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io) is an open standard that enables AI applications to connect to external data sources and tools. Evidence provides two MCP servers.

    Connect an AI client to your live Evidence workspace — search reports and query your data. Requires authentication.

## Which one do I want?

* **Querying your own data and reports?** Use the **[Studio MCP](/mcp/studio)** — it connects to your live workspace with your permissions.
* **Developing reports?** Use the **[Docs MCP](/mcp/docs)** — it searches the docs and component reference.
