Eyebrow: Our API & MCP solution
Statista Connect
Statista Connect is the grounding layer for enterprise AI: a REST API and MCP server that bring verified market and consumer data into any model, agent, or workflow. No logging into the platform or exporting anything by hand.
With Connect, your applications and AI systems query 50K+ expert-verified sources and 1M+ datasets across Statistics, Market Insights, and Consumer Insights. Every figure comes back with its source, year, and methodology attached, so answers stay citation-ready and auditable.
Why teams use Connect
Connect is built for teams whose AI output has to hold up in front of a client, a board, or an auditor:
- Every claim is traceable: Every answer comes back with its source. Citation-ready and fully auditable.
- Model-agnostic by design: Works with Claude, GPT, Gemini, open-weight models, and private SLMs: no platform lock-in.
- Infrastructure, not a wrapper: Your tokens, your model, your tech stack. Connect sits underneath without getting in the way.
- 50,000+ expert-verified sources: Every dataset is checked by human analysts before it reaches your model, and continuously updated so your AI isn't working from stale data.
What data you can access
Connect opens up the full Statista data universe. Which pools and endpoints you can call depends on your Connect package:
Statistics
Structured data points across 170+ industries: Statista's flagship content type. Every result carries its full metadata: title, description, publication date, industry, geography, source, and a link to the content on the Statista platform.
Market Insights
Market forecasts and expert KPIs for 1,000+ markets in 190+ countries and territories, with historic data and five-year forecasts.
Consumer Insights
Survey data from 3M+ consumer interviews across 50+ countries: brand health, audience profiling, and how consumer behavior shifts over time.
API & MCP Server
There are two ways to integrate our data: the REST API returns structured JSON for applications, pipelines, and BI tools. The MCP server gives AI assistants and agents direct access over a streamable HTTP interface, so they can discover and retrieve figures live during a conversation: point your AI tool at the server URL, authenticate, and the Statista tools appear alongside the ones you already use. Either route is a standard integration, so moving from one model or tool to the next is a configuration change, not a migration project.
Everything you need to build is in the technical documentation:
- Getting started: setup, API keys, and your first call.
- API reference: the full list of endpoints, parameters, and example calls.
- MCP server: server URL, authentication, and the available tools.
