Ask your AI about heritage sites.
Atika runs a public Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. Connect it to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or any MCP-compatible client, and your assistant can search the Atika atlas directly: 114,000+ documented archaeological and heritage sites, beaches and islands across Greece, Israel and Italy.
Endpoint
https://atika-mcp.fly.dev/mcp
Streamable HTTP, no authentication. Results are summaries with links back to atika.app; coordinates, full descriptions, photos and proximity alerts live in the country apps.
What your assistant can do
- search_sites: find sites by name, region, era or type ("Byzantine churches in the Peloponnese", "Roman aqueducts in Lazio", "Tel Megiddo").
- get_site: a one-glance summary of any site, with its link.
- get_region_stats: how many sites a region or country has, by type and era.
- list_regions: the densest heritage regions across all three countries.
- get_company_info: what Atika is, with honest dataset numbers.

Fair use
The endpoint is free for personal assistant use. It intentionally serves summaries, not the full dataset: searches return at most 10 results and site records omit coordinates, hours and fees. The full offline catalog ships in the apps: Greece, Israel, Italy. Questions: [email protected].
