NEW YORK, May 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Guidepoint, a global pioneer in access to expert insight, today announced the launch of its Model Context Protocol (MCP) server with Anthropic's Claude. Research teams can now incorporate trusted knowledge from Guidepoint's library of 100,000+ expert interview transcripts directly into their AI-enabled research workflows, with every insight attributed and linked to its source in Guidepoint360.
Guidepoint MCP is powered by its proprietary library of expert insights which is built by Guidepoint's team of 300+ content specialists and 100% compliance reviewed to institutional standards. The continuously expanding dataset supports both deep company-level diligence and broad thematic research across industries and geographies. With 5,000+ new transcripts added every month, it represents a uniquely powerful foundation for AI-enabled research that only gets stronger over time.
"Our clients depend on Guidepoint for expert insights they can trust," said Albert Sebag, Founder & CEO of Guidepoint. "Guidepoint MCP lets them combine our rigorously sourced expert library with Claude's advanced reasoning and agentic capabilities. The result is a research workflow that is faster, more comprehensive, and more powerful than anything available before."
What that means in practice cuts across client segments. A healthcare investor preparing for an earnings call can surface expert physician perspectives on a drug class in minutes, with every source cited and auditable. A private equity analyst conducting diligence on a company with limited public information can draw on Guidepoint's proprietary interviews to build conviction faster than any traditional research process allows. A consulting team scoping a new market can canvass operators, former executives, and channel partners across geographies in a single search, surfacing on-the-ground realities that traditional desk research alone misses.
Key benefits of Guidepoint MCP include:
- Seamless AI incorporation. Enabling new research workflows that combine proprietary expert knowledge with the full power of AI.
- Full source attribution. Every answer traces back to the source transcript in Guidepoint360, with a complete audit trail.
- Compliance by design. All content is compliance-reviewed and configurable to client-specific controls, including off-limits lists and topic restrictions.
- Compounding dataset. A foundation that only gets stronger over time with 100,000+ transcripts available now and 5,000+ added every month.
Today's launch on Claude marks only the beginning of Guidepoint's availability on other platforms. Additional connections are planned in partnership with other leading platforms to ensure clients have access to trusted expert insights across their research process.
Guidepoint MCP is available now on Claude. For more information or to request access, email sales@guidepoint.com.

AGIBOT A2 Joins Alexander Wang at the Met Gala: Embodied AI Makes Historic Fashion Debut
NEW YORK, May 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- AGIBOT, a pioneer in embodied AI and humanoid robotics, presented its full-size humanoid robot AGIBOT A2 alongside internationally renowned designer Alexander Wang at The Mark Hotel on the day of the 2026 Met Gala, entering one of the most globally anticipated moments in fashion. This occasion marks the first time an embodied AI humanoid robot has appeared at the Met Gala, a historic convergence of advanced robotics and high fashion.
The appearance builds on a broader collaboration between AGIBOT and the luxury fashion house alexanderwang. For Alexander Wang, whose work often bridges Eastern and Western cultural narratives, the moment reflects a continued commitment to elevating Chinese creativity and technological advancement on the world stage.
The Mark Hotel is a key departure point for the Met Gala, gathering designers, celebrities, and media worldwide. Before the red carpet, it serves as the main stage for styling, street-style photos, and content creation, acting as the "front stage" of fashion's biggest night. For many, the Met Gala story begins here.
As an active participant in this real-world human environment, AGIBOT A2 accompanied Alexander Wang from The Mark Hotel, interacting with crowds in an open, dynamic setting. Using advanced perception and decision-making capabilities, A2 completed multiple rounds of natural interaction in the complex environment, including stable object handling and beverage delivery to guests, demonstrating the precision and fluidity of embodied AI in real-world scenarios.
The appearance quickly drew on-site attention, with widespread filming and social coverage, making it one of the evening's most talked-about technology highlights.
AGIBOT A2 is a full-scale humanoid robot with human-level proportions, equipped with advanced dexterity, stable bipedal locomotion, and natural human-robot interaction capabilities. It is among the first humanoid robots to achieve scalable commercial deployment, with a design that emphasizes participation and collaboration in real human environments. This appearance is a significant step for Chinese embodied AI—from laboratory and industrial settings onto the world's top cultural and fashion stage—illustrating how technology can serve as a new medium for contemporary artistic expression. At this significant global cultural moment, robots are evolving into "participants" that co-create new spatial and experiential possibilities alongside humans.
This collaboration bridges the boundaries between technological innovation, fashion expression, and artistic creation, aligning closely with the Met Gala's core theme this year, "Fashion is Art." It reflects a broader trajectory in which the convergence of technology and fashion is shaping future aesthetics and cultural narratives. Guided by the belief in "liberating creativity and augmenting productivity," AGIBOT will continue to explore cross-disciplinary applications across diverse scenarios, bringing embodied AI closer to everyday life.
