Owner search and skip tracing MCPs
A skip tracing MCP puts a skip tracing API inside Claude or ChatGPT. It finds an owner's phones, emails and mailing address, so "who owns this?" becomes "call them."

How does skip tracing work through an MCP?
You ask Claude or ChatGPT, and the connected skip tracing server runs the lookup. BatchData, Tracerfy, PropertyRadar and Goliath offer it.
- "Skip trace the owners of these 20 properties."
- "Find a phone number for the owner of 908 Pine Street."
- "Skip trace everyone on my probate list and drop anyone on the Do Not Call list."
BatchData
BatchData's official MCP server, at mcp.batchdata.com, connects to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or Claude Code with your BatchData sign-in. It covers property search, skip tracing, comps, address verification, and DNC and TCPA phone checks.

Match rates: what to actually compare
Every vendor quotes a high match rate. What matters is how many numbers reach the owner.
- Hit rate: did it return any number?
- Right-party rate: of a sample we call, how many reach the owner?
- Line type: mobile or landline?
- DNC flags: does it mark numbers on the Do Not Call registry?
What do DNC and TCPA rules mean for skip-traced numbers?
A skip-traced number is not permission to call or text it. In the US:
- TCPA consent. Marketing texts and autodialed or prerecorded calls to cell phones need prior express written consent.
- Do Not Call. The National Do Not Call Registry covers telemarketing calls. Scrub against it and your own do-not-contact list first.
- Texting is stricter. Carriers also require A2P 10DLC registration for business texting.
- Opt-outs have to stick. If someone says stop, every tool that might contact them needs to know.
- You're the sender. Vendors' terms put compliance on the customer.
This isn't legal advice, so talk to a lawyer about your outreach.
From number to call list
A typical morning, with Goliath connected to Claude:
"Find properties in Shelby County with a pre-foreclosure filing in the last 14 days, skip trace the owners, and make a call list called 'Pre-FC: this week' with everyone who has a mobile number."
The full walkthrough is on our morning call list page.
