Parl8 MCP is read-only and covers the 2024– parliamentary term. Plenary speeches are machine-translated from the European Parliament's original recordings and may contain errors. Data refreshes within hours of each plenary sitting. Raw records remain freely available from the European Parliament — Parl8 adds the unified, AI-ready intelligence layer on top.
Interactive where your assistant supports it — vote results, legislative timelines and MEP cards render as live Parl8 cards inside the chat (MCP Apps–capable hosts), with one click through to the full picture on parl8.eu.
