Wikexa

Structured knowledge for AI agents. Wikipedia, Wikidata and Wiktionary as

clean JSON instead of HTML. ~30x fewer tokens than fetching the page yourself.

• MCP endpoint: `https://wikexa.com/mcp`
• Registry: `com.wikexa/knowledge`
• Homepage: wikexa.com
• Agent guide: wikexa.com/agents
• Docs: wikexa.com/docs
• llms.txt: wikexa.com/llms.txt

Why

An agent fetching `en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Inc.` burns ~15,000 tokens of HTML

to recover ~500 tokens of facts. Wikipedia's own API returns wikitext, which is

barely better. One `lookup()` call here returns the facts directly.

Tools

Every tool is also a REST endpoint backed by the same handler:

GET https://wikexa.com/v1/lookup?entity=Tim%20Cook
GET https://wikexa.com/v1/article?title=Apple%20Inc.&sections=History
GET https://wikexa.com/v1/define?word=serendipity&language=English
GET https://wikexa.com/v1/search?query=quantum%20computing&limit=5
GET https://wikexa.com/v1/recent?topic=election

curl -s 'https://wikexa.com/v1/lookup?entity=Tim%20Cook'

Pricing

Free for individuals and open-source projects. Commercial volume plans available

Token control

`article()` takes `sections` and `max_chars`. Ask for the section you need

rather than the whole article. Empty fields are omitted from all responses to

minimize token usage.

Licensing

Wikipedia text is CC BY-SA 4.0 — every response carries `license` and

`source_url`. Wikidata facts are CC0. We add no restrictions on top of those

licences. Paid plans buy service capacity and support, never content rights.
