Webull has launched its Model Context Protocol server, a system that enables clients to interact with its OpenAPI using natural-language commands instead of programming code.

The move comes as brokerages and trading platforms accelerate efforts to adopt MCP infrastructure in trading systems. Last month, Spotware introduced MCP servers for cTrader, allowing AI agents to execute trades and manage positions through natural-language instructions.

Webull said the MCP server has been available since April and has already been used by active traders over the past two months. The system allows artificial intelligence agents to connect directly with Webull’s trading infrastructure and perform tasks based on plain-language instructions.

The MCP server extends access to trading tools previously used mainly by developers and quantitative traders, and it enables users without programming knowledge to access functions that once required technical expertise. It added that the service is currently available to all U.S. clients and will be expanded to additional markets in the future.

Anthony Denier, Group President and U.S. CEO of Webull, said AI is reshaping how investors interact with markets and that MCP forms part of the company’s broader strategy.

The functions include querying real-time market data, viewing account balances and positions, placing and managing orders, and reviewing order history and order details.

The launch reflects a broader industry shift toward integrating artificial intelligence tools into retail trading platforms. The MCP standard allows AI systems to communicate with brokerage infrastructure and execute trading-related actions based on user instructions.

“AI is fundamentally changing how investors can engage with markets,” Denier said.

He added that the firm sees the system as a way to reduce barriers to advanced trading tools, calling it “a foundational capability for the next generation of self-directed investors.”
