# Integrating Your AI Agent Grix offers flexible integration options for AI agents, enabling seamless access to comprehensive derivatives data. You can connect your AI agent using either the Model Context Protocol (MCP) or direct plugin integration, depending on your platform's capabilities. MCP provides a standardized connection, while plugins offer customized adaptations for specific platforms. **Access to Grix data requires a valid Grix API key with sufficient credits, which can be obtained through the Grix DApp.** ### Model Context Protocol (MCP) Integration The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that enables AI systems to securely connect to data sources.
