Aquacraft Enhances Aquaculture Management with MCP Protocol Integration

Aquacraft Integrates MCP Support into uwotech pro

Aquacraft Inc., located in Higashiyamato, Tokyo, announced that starting May 11, 2026, its aquaculture management service, uwotech pro, will support the Model Context Protocol (MCP). This integration aims to enhance the aquaculture sector with advanced management capabilities using AI assistants like Claude and ChatGPT, allowing users to interact with the system through natural dialogue. Notably, this feature will be available to all existing plan users without any additional charges.

The Significance of MCP in Aquaculture

The integration of AI agents into business systems is rapidly advancing in various industries. The Model Context Protocol (MCP), proposed by Anthropic in November 2024, is being adopted by key AI companies such as Google, Microsoft, and OpenAI. This has made MCP the de facto standard for connecting AI assistants to business systems. While industries like accounting and sales have seen significant MCP integration, the adoption in aquaculture management systems remains limited.

Aquacraft has continuously received feedback from its clients, expressing the need to analyze and leverage the data accumulated in their aquaculture operations. These requests highlighted the necessity for a system that allows for flexibility in business operations rather than a one-size-fits-all API integration, which was previously limiting. In response, Aquacraft decided to adopt MCP to offer a common gateway for businesses, enabling them to incorporate AI solutions tailored to their distinct workflows with minimal development effort.

What is MCP?

MCP is an open standard designed to safely connect AI assistants, such as Claude and ChatGPT, with business systems. With this integration, users will be able to refer to and record aquaculture data on uwotech pro through natural language queries. Unlike traditional AI chat interfaces, MCP allows AI to perform actual operations within the business system, such as recording daily reports or analyzing data across different lots—tasks that previously required manual input from users.

Key Features of the MCP-Compatible uwotech pro

1. Data Reference through AI Dialogue: Users can ask questions like, “What is this month’s growth rate for seed stock X?” or “Which pond had the highest mortality rate last month?” The AI retrieves relevant data from uwotech pro and presents it along with supporting information.

2. Automated Daily Report Creation: By simply stating facts like “I fed 200 kg of feed to pond 3” or “There were 3 fatalities in pond 5,” the AI automatically registers this information in the correct format within uwotech pro, eliminating the need for any form entry.

3. Production Indicator Analysis: Users can delegate tasks like analyzing which lot had the best growth rate this season or observing changes in feeding costs monthly. This way, ongoing assessments can be achieved through conversational methods, even without specialized report tools.

4. Custom AI Integration into Unique Business Workflows: Whether connecting inventory systems or integrating datasets from sensors, businesses can adapt the AI functionalities of uwotech pro to their specific operational needs seamlessly.

5. No Additional Cost for Existing Users: All current uwotech pro users will benefit from this new capability at no extra cost, ensuring accessibility to the advanced features.

Vision for the Future

According to Aquacraft's CEO, Makoto Kaji, 2026 will mark a pivotal transition where business systems will evolve to allow humans and AIs to collaborate more effectively. For AI assistants to genuinely contribute to aquaculture management, the systems they operate—like uwotech pro—must be equipped to interactively engage with AI. This MCP integration lays the foundation for clients in the aquaculture industry to enhance productivity, accelerate decision-making, and reduce operational burdens.

One of the major advantages of this integration is the flexibility it offers in AI implementation according to individual business needs. Tasks that were previously difficult to connect can now be easily integrated via the standardized MCP framework. Aquacraft aims to continue leading the charge in propelling AI adoption within the aquaculture sector, positioning uwotech pro as a pivotal platform for data connectivity.
