Overview
The Web MCP from Bright Data is your gateway to giving AI assistants true live web capabilities. It eliminates outdated responses and the frustration of blocked access by providing seamless, reliable web access that actually works. Built by Bright Data, the world’s #1 web data platform, this MCP server ensures your AI never gets blocked, rate-limited, or served CAPTCHAs. It works with any LLM (Claude, GPT, Gemini, Llama) and can be deployed as a hosted service or run locally. The hosted option requires no installation; simply point your MCP client to https://mcp.brightdata.com/mcp?token=YOUR_API_TOKEN. Locally, run npx @brightdata/mcp with an API_TOKEN. The system ships two pricing modes: Rapid Mode (free, 5,000 requests/month) and Pro Mode (pay-as-you-go with 60+ advanced tools). Core capabilities include smart web search, global access to bypass geo-restrictions, clean content extraction, and anti-bot protection. Pro mode adds browser control and extensive web data APIs. With zero-config out of the box, it’s ideal for prototyping and scaling live web tasks alongside existing AI workflows.
