Interactive Brokers has launched version 1.2.0 of its IBKR Connector, enabling users to execute saved investment screeners through AI platforms like ChatGPT, Claude, and Grok. This update streamlines research by displaying ranked stock results within the AI chat interface.
Why it matters
The tool changes how investors interact with financial data by integrating portfolio management workflows into existing AI assistants. By using the Model Context Protocol, the platform connects personal brokerage screeners with conversational AI for faster result filtering.
The new version 1.2.0 allows investors to pull up to 50 stock matches in a single request, a significant increase over the default view of 10 results. Users can access deep links to the Client Portal to review underlying data for these filtered investments.
