Kpler has launched a model context protocol (MCP) designed to improve maritime intelligence for government and defense users, focusing on lithium trades to China. The platform offers insights into shipment volumes, vessel activity, and future arrivals, while a three-year analysis revealed nearly 8 million metric tons of lithium entering China, with over 10 percent annual growth. Kpler aims to enhance decision-making for defense and intelligence agencies by utilizing commercial data and engaging with military stakeholders for future improvements.
