Précis Finance MCP
A read-only, self-hosted MCP server for FP&A and management reporting: governed metrics, financial statements, and row-level drill-down over a SQL semantic layer - your own warehouse, not market data. The open core of Précis, the agentic Finance Intelligence Platform.
Teams that work with clickhouse, finance and financial analysis and want a hosted endpoint instead of running a local process. The project is written in Python.
