Overview

What StatCite does

StatCite serves World Bank WDI, IMF WEO and Fiscal Monitor, and ECB reference rate data, and attaches provenance to every figure: source, dataset, series identifier, canonical URL, licence, retrieval date and a citation sentence ready to paste. Verification runs the other direction too. A claimed number can be checked against the official series and comes back with a verdict plus diagnostics for the errors that recur in economic writing: the wrong year, a percentage read as a decimal, millions confused with billions. An as_of parameter checks a claim against the vintage current on a past date rather than today's revision. Free, read-only, no authentication.

Who it is for

Economics writers, fact-checkers and analysts who need a citation with the number.

Tool surface

Half the surface fetches (get_indicator, get_series, country_snapshot, search, fetch) and half checks: verify_stat takes one claimed figure, verify_claims batches a whole draft in a single call. inflation_adjust and fx_convert are conversions rather than lookups.

Availability

Where StatCite is listed

StatCite is listed in the Claude connectors directory only. StatCite has no app under the same domain in the ChatGPT directory; 392 of the 3,150 products here are on both marketplaces, and this is not one of them.

The MCP server behind a Claude connector is usually the same server a ChatGPT app would need, so the absence is a distribution decision rather than a technical one.

Claude listing

In the Claude connectors directory

StatCite publishes 11 tools to Claude. That is a mid-sized surface: 48% of the 1,253 Claude-listed connectors expose fewer.

The median Claude-listed connector filed under Data & Analytics publishes 12, so this one sits one tool below its bucket's median, 104th of 198.

It falls in the 11-20 tools band, which holds 22.5% of the Claude directory.

Measured against the live endpoint

A direct call to the endpoint returned 11 tools, matching the 11 the listing publishes. Probed 2026-08-07.

Tools the server actually returns

  • get_indicator
  • verify_stat
  • verify_claims
  • get_series
  • search_indicators
  • country_snapshot
  • inflation_adjust
  • fx_convert
  • list_sources
  • search
  • fetch

StatCite publishes a remote MCP endpoint. Claude connects to it over HTTP; there is nothing to install locally.

Every connector in the Claude directory is remote, all 1,253 of them, so transport is not a differentiator there.

StatCite is community-listed in the Claude directory, the tier 770 of 1,253 connectors sit in (61.5%). It is the default for a self-published server, and says nothing either way about quality.

In the publisher's words

How StatCite describes it

StatCite returns official economic statistics — World Bank WDI, IMF WEO/Fiscal Monitor (current vintage via the IMF's own DataMapper API), and ECB reference rates — where every number ships with a full citation: source, dataset, series ID, canonical URL, license, retrieval date, and a ready-to-paste citation sentence. Its verify_stat tool checks any claimed economic figure against the official series and returns a verdict (match / close / mismatch / cannot_verify) with diagnostics for the classic errors: wrong year, percent-vs-decimal slips, and millions/billions scale confusion. verify_claims batch-checks up to 15 claims from a draft in one call. An as_of parameter enables revision-aware verification: check whether a claim was true against the IMF WEO/Fiscal Monitor edition that was current on a given historical date, not just today's revised figure. 42 curated indicators across 200+ economies, inflation adjustment, and historical FX conversion (including ~90 currencies the ECB set doesn't cover). Free, read-only, no authentication required.
