St8 has reported a substantial increase in the weekly usage of its Model Context Protocol (MCP) integration, revealing a 91 percent rise in activity since its launch. In just three months, the platform managed over 10,000 queries, highlighting a growing reliance on AI-driven casino aggregation solutions. The data indicates that more operators are integrating agentic AI into their daily practices to enhance operational efficiency.
From July 19 to October 11, 2026, St8 recorded 10,358 queries and actions handled through its MCP integration. The weekly query volume rose significantly, from 490 queries in the first week to 935 in the week starting October 11.
MCP is an innovative open standard enabling AI systems to connect seamlessly with external tools and data sources. This surge in numbers reflects how operator teams leverage AI to interact with St8’s aggregation platform, allowing them to access reports, verify configurations, and identify issues without manual navigation through dashboards.
The increase in queries has been particularly notable in the last two months, with a remarkable 128 percent jump from 426 queries in the week of August 16 to 972 in the week of October 4, as operator teams increasingly incorporated the AI assistant into their workflows.
Weekly AI query data from July 19 to October 11, 2026, shows:
– July 19: 490 queries
– July 26: 527 queries
– August 2: 2,679 queries
– August 9: 506 queries
– August 16: 426 queries
– August 23: 622 queries
– August 30: 618 queries
– September 6: 762 queries
– September 13: 581 queries
– September 20: 618 queries
– September 27: 622 queries
– October 4: 972 queries
– October 11: 935 queries
The daily data also reflects routine use, showing decreased activity over weekends and a spike on Mondays, indicating that the system is being deployed as part of regular back-office functions. Recent weeks have seen significant activity, including a peak of 1,907 queries over a two-week span and another spike of 2,679 queries in August, all while maintaining consistent service without interruptions.
In a sector considering how AI can enhance daily operations, St8’s findings demonstrate that the use of its platform simplifies back-office processes and provides better access to operational data. As aggregation services compete in aspects like integration efficiency, content variety, and operational effectiveness in regulated markets, the ability to seamlessly incorporate AI into existing workflows is poised to become a vital competitive factor.
St8 presented its MCP-powered AI assistant at the SBC Summit Lisbon in September, during which AI query activity surged by over 50 percent compared to the previous week.
Vlad Negine, CEO of St8, remarked on the encouraging results:
"We launched our MCP integration to explore new ways AI could make day-to-day operations easier, giving operator partners a faster and simpler way to interact with the St8 platform. The increased usage and positive trajectory confirm that the MCP is enhancing operational efficiency. We are thrilled to surpass 10,000 queries in such a short timeframe and look forward to building on these developments to deliver more value across the industry."
