Oracle network Pyth on March 31, 2026, launched Pyth Pro for AI Agents, a market data service designed to provide real-time financial information to artificial intelligence applications. The new offering grants access to more than 3,000 institutional price feeds, expanding Pyth's reach beyond its core crypto user base.
The service is built on the Model Context Protocol (MCP), the same protocol used by AI development platforms such as Claude and Cursor. "Providing institutional-grade, real-time market data directly to AI agents is a critical step in building the future of autonomous finance," a Pyth contributor said in the announcement.
Pyth Pro's data suite covers a wide range of assets, including cryptocurrencies, equities, foreign exchange, and commodities. This broad coverage allows AI agents to access a diverse set of financial information through a single integration, potentially streamlining the development of sophisticated AI-driven financial models and applications. The move places Pyth in direct competition with traditional data providers and other oracle networks aiming to service the growing AI sector.
The launch could significantly enhance Pyth's position as a key data provider for the emerging field of AI-driven finance. By integrating with protocols familiar to AI developers, Pyth aims to lower the barrier to entry for building autonomous financial agents. The expansion of its services into the high-growth AI sector may increase demand for the Pyth network and its native token.
