Global AI Regulation Tracker 🌏

Pull tracker news into your own systems

The API returns the AI regulation news items behind this tracker as JSON, by jurisdiction, category and date, in English or Chinese. Use it for an internal newsletter, a research dashboard, news alerts, a private chatbot or an educational resource.

Each item has a label with the date and headline, an href source link and a desc summary. Newer records also carry an ISO date and a status.

Ask the tracker inside your AI assistant

The MCP server lets your AI assistant search the Global AI Regulation Tracker and answer with links to official sources, across 3,800+ records in 235 jurisdictions. Ask for the latest developments, search by country or topic, or compare up to 10 jurisdictions in a saved review that you can export to Word or PDF and check for changes later. It works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and other assistants that accept custom MCP connectors.

Start in three steps

1. 1Open connectorsIn Claude Desktop or on claude.aiSettings › Connectors › Add custom connector
2. 2Paste the addressAny assistant that accepts custom MCP connectorshttps://mcp.techieray.com/mcp
3. 3Connect your accountOptional. Free features work without it.“Connect my tracker account.”

Nothing needs to be installed. If no sign in window appears after step 3, choose Authenticate or Sign in in the connector settings.

Use the tracker in Claude

The TechieRay plugin connects Claude to the tracker's MCP server and adds ready made commands for common research tasks. Claude answers from the tracker's dated records with links to official sources. It works on claude.ai, in the Claude desktop app and in Claude Code.

Install

1. 1Open pluginsOn claude.ai or in the Claude desktop appCustomize › Plugins
2. 2Add the marketplaceThen install techieraytechie-ray/techieray-plugin
3. 3Connect your accountOptional. Free features work without it.“Connect my tracker account.”

In Claude Code, run these two commands.

/plugin marketplace add techie-ray/techieray-plugin
/plugin install techieray@techieray

The plugin adds the tracker connector for you. If you already added the TechieRay connector by hand, you can remove that copy.
