Lumify is a sports intelligence API for agents, and its official GitHub repository (lumifyai/lumify) provides client SDKs, MCP integration, and developer documentation and examples. The repository itself does not contain a server-side implementation; Lumify runs as a hosted API at https://lumify.ai，用户无需自行部署服务器。
In terms of purpose, Lumify focuses on sports data and intelligent analytics, and can be used to obtain real-time schedules, live scores, odds, line movements, public betting splits, and an explainable AI betting confidence index. Covered sports include MLB, NFL, NCAAF, NCAAB, NBA, NHL, tennis, and soccer competitions including MLS, the English Premier League (EPL), La Liga, Serie A, the Bundesliga, Ligue 1, and the UEFA Champions League.
In terms of main capabilities, the repository provides official TypeScript and Python SDKs to make it easy for developers to integrate the Lumify API into applications; it also provides Model Context Protocol (MCP) integration, including a remote MCP server hosted at https://lumify.ai/mcp (Streamable HTTP, JSON mode, stateless), as well as a local stdio bridge for clients that do not support remote MCP. This allows AI agents and MCP-compatible clients to directly call Lumify's sports intelligence tools.
In terms of usage, all access must be authenticated with a Lumify API key (format lmfy-...). There are two ways to obtain a key: first, an instant trial key that requires no registration; visit https://lumify.ai/docs/ai and click "Get instant trial key" to receive 100 credits valid for 14 days, with no account, email, or credit card required; second, create a persistent account and obtain a key at https://lumify.ai/api-keys , where the free trial includes 1,000 credits and no credit card is required. For MCP usage, any MCP-compatible client can be pointed to the remote MCP server, or the local stdio bridge can be used (see the MCP bridge README and MCP guide in the repository for details). The repository also provides quick-start documentation, an agent cookbook, a Postman collection, and links to the API reference and OpenAPI specification.
Applicable scenarios include: developing sports data applications, building betting analytics tools, providing real-time sports intelligence capabilities for AI agents, and conducting research on lines and betting splits.
In terms of limitations, the materials do not specify details such as specific pricing, rate limits, or other terms of use; Lumify is a hosted service, and users cannot run the server themselves; authentication keys must be obtained by the user; other feature details are not provided.
