## How this collection is built

Every figure is traced back to the body that measured it, not to the article citing it. On their way through the retellings, figures lose their denominator first, then their caveat, and finally their origin. Where a figure is only accessible through a third party, that intermediary is named in the source line. Own measurements carry their method with them; they have not been independently verified yet.

**The limit belongs to the number.** The most common error is not the wrong number but the right one carrying a claim that reaches further than the evidence. That is why every entry has two parts, and the second one matters more. Above each figure sits what kind of evidence it is, from verified study to single case. That decides how far it carries.

What does not survive the check does not get in, or gets taken out, my own articles included. One of them claimed that 44 percent of US online shoppers begin their purchase journey in a language model, attributed to Bain. Bain gives two other figures, 17 percent and 30 to 45 percent, which had merged into one along the way. Both are here now; the 44 is not.

This page ages. Every entry carries its date; superseded numbers get replaced, not quietly deleted. If you find an error, [write to me](mailto:hallo@robert-haase.de) and I will correct it and note the date.

The collection does not map the state of the research, only the figures I needed for my own texts. Free to use with attribution. When in doubt, link the primary source rather than this page.

## astryx-agenten

**Claim:** Meta open-sourced its design system in June 2026, after eight years of internal growth, and explicitly cites agents as the reason for how it is built: design systems were historically made for human consumption, and as more code is written by agents, their structure has to be rethought.

**What this does not say:** These are vendor figures, not independently audited. The reach of more than 13,000 applications refers to Meta’s own estate, not to the market, and the system is labelled beta. **The second figure, the one that travels, needs placing:** the 95 percent drop in the weekly insertion rate from the accompanying Figma library is an internal observation at Meta, not an industry value. And the library was not abandoned but published in August as an experiment, built and kept current by a cron job connected to the Figma MCP. **In detail:** The system is operated from the command line or over MCP.

## designsysteme-maschinenschnittstelle

**Claim:** Of 21 open-source design systems surveyed, 18 ship a first-party MCP server, 18 official agent skills and 15 an llms.txt. The survey sums it up: “Nobody is still arguing about whether to ship a machine interface.”

**What the number does not say, and this is the first stumbling block when you check:** The survey carries two series. The essay counts first-party, official offerings only and arrives at 18, 18 and 15; the systems table on the landing page counts community offerings too and arrives at 20, 19 and 15. Both are correct, they measure different things. Anyone quoting the narrower figure has to say “first-party”. The figure moves: on 10 September 2026 the site still listed 20 systems with 17, 17 and 14, on 17 September 21. **The weightier caveat:** what was measured are *design systems*, so components and code for developers, not brand guidelines. The survey says nothing about brands outside the software industry. It is also a three-day snapshot and the work of a single person, not an institute.

## gitlab-markenrepo

**Claim:** GitLab keeps brand voice, naming rules, trademark guidelines, values and mission as Markdown files in a public repository; every change carries a date, a real name and a written justification. On 22 May 2025 Senior Brand Manager Betsy Bula filed the rewrite of the three brand personality traits.

**The form is established, the effect is not:** whether language models describe GitLab more accurately because of it is measured nowhere. It is also a single company, and a software vendor for which a public repository is the house style anyway. **Nobody reviewed it:** merge request 13766 came from the same person and was merged by her, without a comment, just under 16 minutes later. **Two versions stand side by side:** the official brand guidelines are not in the handbook but on design.gitlab.com, and there the same three traits still carry the wording from before 22 May 2025, last changed in substance on 20 December 2024. The contradiction has stood for more than fifteen months. A version history produces traceability, not agreement. **The opening also runs backwards:** the vision moved into the internal handbook on 10 February 2025, the strategy page disappeared on 17 July 2025. Positioning in the marketing sense is still public there, one message house per use case with a row of its own, “Positioning Statement”. **Every file has its own beginning:** repository 23 January 2023, values 2 May 2023, trademark guidelines 16 November 2023, brand voice 21 December 2023, naming rules only 6 February 2025. Dating the case by the age of the repository is off by up to two years. **In detail:** The rewrite was a single commit of four inserted and five deleted lines, justified by aligning the definitions with current communication and the FY26 company plan.

## frontify-mcp

**Claim:** Frontify opens its brand portal through an MCP server it runs itself. On 17 September 2026 it lists 53 tools one by one in ten packs, graded from read-only to full administrative access; on 10 September it was 54.

**What the number does not say:** 53 is a snapshot, and it moves: 54 on 10 September 2026, 53 a week later. The help centre has dropped the beta label from its title since September 2026. The vendor’s documentation says 52 in two places and 25 rather than 24 for the read-only pack: anyone quoting 52 is quoting the documentation, not the counted system. None of the four Frontify sources gives a reason. The pack figures are overlapping subsets of the 53 and must not be added up. The Frontify guide’s headline announces the server with ten tools, meaning ten packs, off by more than fivefold. **What this entry does not establish:** what is established is a vendor’s own account of its own product, independently verified nowhere: the size of an interface, not its spread, its use, its effect or the quality of the brand rules it serves. No tool decides a claim, the packs read, write and administer. An access log is not evidenced: “Audit trail of AI interactions” is a selection criterion for buyers at Frontify, and the word audit does not appear in the repository, the server pages or the help centre. The server is not on by default. Since mid-September 2026 account admins switch it on themselves, at no additional cost and without customer support according to the help centre; on 10 September access still ran through customer support, free with pricing subject to change. Frontify is now also listed as an official connector in Claude’s directory. Frontify states that it does not control how the connected AI provider processes the data. **In detail:** The read-only Discovery pack holds 24 tools, the Admin pack all 53, two of them flagged as destructive.

**Source:** Frontify, MCP server overview and pack pages (/mcp/packs/admin and /mcp/packs/discovery), tools listed individually and counted, 53 and 24 entries respectively with unique names on 17 September 2026 (54 and 24 on 10 September) · repository with the table of ten packs, MIT licence ([repository](https://github.com/Frontify/mcp-servers)) · help centre “Frontify MCP” (titled Beta until early September), as of 17 September 2026, gives 52 tools and 25 for Discovery and states that account admins enable the server at no additional cost ([help centre](https://help.frontify.com/en/articles/14787214-frontify-mcp-beta)) · guide “Choosing a DAM for the AI era”, published 22 May 2026, last changed 30 July 2026, also gives 52 ([guide](https://www.frontify.com/en/guide/dam-mcp)) · [Server](https://mcp.frontify-integrations.com/)

## canva-mcp

**Claim:** Canva runs an official MCP server and documents 33 tools for it: 27 are available on every plan; four require at least Canva Pro, among them listing brand kits and using brand templates; two are reserved for Enterprise. Every user authenticates individually, and an agent holds the permissions of the human signed in.

**Where the plan boundary lies:** the overview page appears to put the brand-related part on Enterprise; the tool list governs, and “Pro and above” there means Pro, Business and Enterprise. **What this entry does not establish:** a vendor’s own statements, with no independent check. It establishes the existence and scope of the interface, not its spread, its use or its effect. No tool checks a claim against brand rules; brand kits are read and filled in. Export runs on every plan, but free plans only at standard quality, and premium elements can make it fail on any plan with license_required. **Shelf life:** the 33 holds as of the retrieval date, and the documentation carries no version stamp. The server itself needs only a Canva account on any plan; your own integration needs clearance from Canva. **In detail:** Among the 27 tools available on every plan are creating and exporting designs. Reserved for Enterprise are autofilling a template with data and reading the associated dataset.

## mcp-primitive

**Claim:** The Model Context Protocol defines three server building blocks, each with an intended controlling party: tools are invoked by the model, resources are steered by the application, prompt templates are selected by the user. That is not binding: the protocol itself does not mandate any specific user interaction model.

**The triad is in the overview, not in the rules:** The table with Model, Application, User appears in the explainer “Understanding MCP servers” and again in the specification overview “Server Features”. Neither page carries MUST or SHOULD rules; in the three chapters that do, resources are “application-driven”. No server has to offer all three: “Servers offer any of the following features to clients”. **And it ages fast:** since 5 November 2024 there have been five revisions, two of them since November 2025. Methods get replaced: resources/subscribe appears twice in the resources chapter of 2025-06-18 and 2025-11-25, and not once in 2026-07-28, which uses subscriptions/listen three times. **In detail:** All three chapters carry the same trailing clause on the interaction model. In the tools chapter a SHOULD rule follows immediately: a human should always be able to deny a tool invocation.

## mcp-tool-poisoning

**Claim:** Instructions hidden inside a tool description make an agent pass the user’s private SSH key to a foreign server. A benchmark built on 45 live MCP servers with 353 tools measures a 36.5 percent average attack success rate across 20 model settings, 72.8 percent at most.

**What this does not say:** The user still clicks. Only the content of the approval is hidden, Cursor conceals the key even inside the dialog. No server was compromised, the poisoned tool sits in the system prompt. **Success is narrowly defined:** it counts only when the agent misuses a second, legitimate tool; if it calls the poisoned tool itself, the paper scores that as a failure. What is scored is the model’s tool call in a single turn, nothing is executed. The 36.5 percent are measured against valid outputs, not against the 1,348 test cases. The remainder is no defence rate, even the most refusal-prone model, Claude-3.7-Sonnet, refused in under 3 percent. Invariant sells agent security tools and published ten days before its own scanner. **In detail:** The agent reads the key and passes it through a parameter named “sidenote”; the confirmation dialog shows only the name of an addition tool.

## monotype-mcp

**Claim:** Monotype announced a beta of its Enterprise MCP Connector on 15 July 2026, running initially in Claude and Claude Design. It links AI tools to a customer’s font library, its licensing information and its production approvals, and reviews referenced fonts against the production font list.

**What the statement does not say:** it comes from the vendor, and no report to be found checks anything itself. The check flags, it does not refuse: the product page says unapproved fonts are flagged, and the Labs post expressly denies that the connector replaces brand, legal or production review. **The customer is the one who approves:** the prerequisite is approved production fonts configured in the customer’s own instance, which the connector merely enforces. The object is a typeface, not a claim. Web and HTML are the first stage, access is limited to selected enterprise Monotype Fonts customers, and there are no figures on use or effect. **In detail:** The connector runs on the Model Context Protocol, matches AI-generated drafts against the library and returns CSS in chat when the project fonts are part of the library.

## pulumi-brand-mcp

**Claim:** Pulumi publishes its own brand guidelines as an MCP server at brand.pulumi.com/mcp, including brand voice, writing style and the binding product names. On 10 and again on 17 September 2026 it answered without any login and listed the same 13 resources, one template, 11 tools and 3 prompts.

**What the numbers do not say:** What was measured is availability and scope, not usage, effect, or whether anyone follows the rules. The content is one software company’s unverified account of its own brand. **What the server does decide:** Three prompts promise a structured evaluation of copy, image and design, but the vendor states they are user-invoked and expand into a prepared model request. In the request of 17 September the prompt for copy (review_copy) returned exactly one such request of 32,957 characters, carrying the guidelines in full and no verdict; all eleven tools are flagged read-only. The server itself computes two judgements: colour contrast against published APCA thresholds, Lc 86.4 for violet-700 on white in our test, and the nearest brand colour together with a replacement recommendation. A human judges whether a statement is any good, and the rule text demands it. **In detail:** One resource governs generative AI in plain language, addressed to the human: “never ship raw model output as a finished piece”, “never publish anything without a human reviewing it first”.

## statista-mcp

**Claim:** Statista runs an MCP server at api.statista.ai/v1/mcp with six documented tools. Every call is metered individually in credits, tiered by the kind of answer: a search costs 0 or 1 credit, retrieving the figures themselves 10 to 15. Without a key the server replies 401 Unauthorized.

**What the tiering does not say:** What a credit costs in money appears nowhere in the documentation; the only pricing page gives ratios. It shows what is expensive, not how expensive. Four of the six tools cover Market and Consumer Insights, market forecasts and survey data rather than the statistics catalogue; only two of them return data, the other two return search hits. **What this entry does not prove:** Vendor statements about a vendor’s own product. The only independent measurement is that the endpoint answers and refuses without a key, nothing about reach or use. The stock figures from the press release of 20 November 2025 are unused: over one million statistics is the share reachable through MCP there, 1.5 million the full database, both vendor figures without a counting rule.

## veeva-mlr

**Claim:** In the regulated pharmaceutical approval process, machine pre-checking of brand rules is a shipping product: on 3 December 2025 Veeva announced a Quick Check Agent. For Falcon MLR, the vendor Copli acquired in June 2026, Veeva states the potential to eliminate 70 percent or more of manual MLR labour within five years.

**What this entry does not establish:** any effect. The 70 per cent is an intention filed under a forward-looking disclaimer. Every statement comes from the vendor, and all that is verified is that the vendor makes it. The agent checks against stored rules and decides nothing; approval here is a regulator-driven process, so the transfer to other brands remains an analogy. **The marketing number will not carry it:** Veeva advertises 57 per cent shorter review cycles on its product page today, with no sample, no baseline and no method; the same wording already appears in a datasheet dated 2 May 2017 and the same figure in one dated 21 March 2016, at least nine years before the first agent, in documents that never once mention AI. **In detail:** The Quick Check Agent scans content against editorial, brand, market, channel and compliance guidelines before the MLR review itself begins. On 23 June 2026 Veeva acquired Copli and launched it as Falcon MLR.

## google-ads-textregeln

**Claim:** In Google Ads, brand rules can be stored in plain language, in Performance Max campaigns and in Search campaigns with AI Max: up to 25 term exclusions and up to 40 restrictions on what to avoid, each per campaign. Both only exclude and apply only to automatically customized text assets, not to images.

**What the figures do not say:** These are product limits, not a measurement. The feature runs as an "experimental beta", Google itself notes possible limitations, and both the caps and the behaviour can change. The rules sit with the campaign, not with the brand: ten campaigns mean ten sets of rules, and outside Google Ads they do not apply. Whether the generated text follows the guidelines is not documented; the page only states that the guidelines are taken into account. **In detail:** The restrictions name concepts, associations or styles to avoid. On the help page Google warns that unsuitable guidelines may remove a large number of good text assets and hurt performance.

## microsoft-brand-kit

**Claim:** Microsoft’s Copilot learns a brand from exactly one PDF and extracts colour palettes, styles, brand voice and the rules for logo and typography from the guidelines. To add a new PDF the existing one has to be removed, and the uploaded guidelines override the values already in the brand kit, brand voice included.

**What this entry does not establish:** these are the vendor’s statements about its own product, independently verified nowhere. What is established is what the documentation describes, not how well the extraction works. **No start date:** Microsoft gives none. One partner publication dates worldwide availability to late June 2026, another lists the PDF import as available in spring; anyone quoting a date is quoting third parties. **Conditions:** the feature requires a Copilot licence, accepts PDF only and expects the General sensitivity label. Since mid-September 2026 presentation skills can be added as Markdown as well; the rules from the guidelines still come from that one PDF alone. **In detail:** A brand manager uploads the guidelines.

## muse-connectors

**Claim:** Meta launched its personal agent Muse in the US on 8 September 2026. Businesses can submit their own connectors, which Meta tests against functional, security and legal requirements before people find them in Muse.

**What this entry does not establish:** reach, use or revenue. These are the vendor’s statements about its own product on launch day. **The technology stays open:** neither page names the protocol behind the connectors, and MCP does not appear there. **So does the reach:** as of the cut-off date Muse is limited to the US and to adults, and how many businesses have submitted a connector is stated nowhere. **In detail:** People choose which apps Muse connects to and how much access it gets, and it checks back before sensitive steps such as sending an email or making a purchase.

## olivares-access-map

**Claim:** There is software for the permissions of AI agents: Olivares discovers agents, MCP servers and tools running in an organisation, keeps a map of read and write access and sets it against what was actually observed. Rules are enforced deny-closed at four points, one of them a gate on MCP tool calls.

**What this entry does not establish:** effect, reach or use. The description comes from the vendor’s own repository, version v26.9.1, marked there explicitly as “beta, in active development”, with no customer figures. **The subject is a different one:** what gets checked is access, tools and spend. Whether a statement may be made in a brand’s name is not what this tool decides. **In detail:** Olivares also discovers sessions, models and identities.

## adobe-markenpruefung

**Claim:** Adobe checks campaign drafts against stored brand guidelines and shows the result as a percentage: the share of guidelines a draft passes out of the guidelines tested, recalculated after every edit.

**What this entry does not establish:** an effect. These are the vendor’s statements about its own product, independently verified nowhere, with no sample and no indication of how well the check performs. **What the percentage does not say:** it counts rules, it does not weigh them. A failed logo rule counts the same in that number as a failed comma rule. **And what it does not prevent:** the documentation describes the panel as pointing to opportunities for improvement and names no block; the individual checks can also be switched off. Who decided a rule and since when it applies is in none of these answers. **In detail:** Besides the percentage there are pass-or-fail results for channel guidelines such as Meta and LinkedIn and for ADA accessibility.

## markup-ai-stilpruefung

**Claim:** Markup AI checks content against a brand’s own voice and style rules, and is itself reachable over MCP: the vendor runs an MCP server at api.markup.ai that assistants such as Claude or Cursor connect to. The tool flags what does not fit, explains why and supplies wording to apply in place.

**What this entry does not establish:** effect, reach or hit rate. The description comes from the vendor, and the overview page does not name the scale of the score. **The connection is not open:** the MCP server requires authentication, by key or OAuth, unlike Pulumi’s public brand server. **And the subject is a different one:** what gets checked is a style guide. The tool flags and suggests, it approves nothing, and who decided a rule does not appear in its answers. By its own account the company was born out of the research and technology of the text checker Acrolinx. **In detail:** Every text is also scored against the stored standards. One example is a prompt asking it to check a paragraph for brand-voice drift.

## agentenstandards-verbreitung

**Claim:** Websites that describe themselves to AI agents in machine-readable form are still the exception. Cloudflare checks the 200,000 most visited domains: of 107,155 scanned successfully, 0.43 percent carry an MCP Server Card, 0.47 percent Agent Skills and 1.8 percent Content Signals; not one offers tools to agents via WebMCP.

**What the number does not say:** The scan counts files and endpoints it finds at fixed locations, such as /.well-known/mcp/server-card.json, not their use; whether an agent reads them, Radar does not measure. It is the vendor’s own measurement with its own selection: search engines and empty or unreachable infrastructure are excluded, and not every standard fits every website: x402, for instance, fits only sites with paid content, and WebMCP only sites that offer tools to agents. **The zero for WebMCP is the least certain figure:** Cloudflare does not describe how Radar detects WebMCP, and a scan can miss tools that a page registers only via JavaScript. **Measured on a small scale:** this collection’s own surveys of robots.txt at German-language media and at DAX, MDAX and SDAX companies and the entry on Content-Signal count the same question on known lists. How many merchants run UCP, the participating companies do not say themselves, as the entry on the UCP council shows; Radar is a second count from outside. **In detail:** An MCP Server Card describes the site’s own MCP server. Among the commerce protocols, UCP reaches 4.8 percent and AP2 two domains.

## markenstimme-als-skill

**Claim:** Google, too, stores brand rules as managed instructions for its assistant: in Google Workspace, so-called skills, introduced as a beta on 17 September 2026, are meant to, among other things, “maintain approved tone, voice, and visual identity across email drafts and files”.

**What this entry does not establish:** use. It is vendor documentation without figures. In Workspace, skills are open only to organisations whose administrator has enabled the Gemini beta; the post says nothing about availability in the EU. In Gemini Enterprise, the Standard, Plus and pay-as-you-go editions can create skills, Frontline cannot. **Context:** after Microsoft’s brand kits and Adobe’s brand check, a third large vendor now stores brand rules as configuration of its assistant, as the entries on both show. **In detail:** Administrators can curate and distribute verified organisational skills. In Gemini Enterprise the documentation names writing “in your brand voice” as an example: each skill is a SKILL.md file built on an open standard, and where the administrator requires approval, a shared skill reaches others only once approved.

## staat-als-einzige-quelle

**Claim:** Since 29 September 2026, america.gov has answered questions for the US government in one input field, according to its operator from roughly 29,000 government sites, with source links.

**What this entry does not establish:** that the answers are correct. There is no systematic test, only journalists’ samples: CBS News asked 37 health questions; emergencies were answered correctly, other answers were outdated or left out a court order, and the agency pages partly contradict each other. The 29,000 sites and the immediate updates are launch statements. According to Gebbia, models from Google (Gemini) and xAI (Grok) run behind it; the White House did not answer questions about privacy and contracts. **The operator on itself:** “The accuracy of our answers is never influenced by third parties.” **In detail:** According to the government’s Chief Design Officer, Joe Gebbia, changes on agency pages are meant to reach the answers immediately.

## chatgpt-plugin-pruefung

**Claim:** Anyone who wants to bring a plugin with an MCP connection into the ChatGPT directory has to state what it must not do: for the initial review, OpenAI requires exactly five positive and three negative test cases. After publication, OpenAI scans the MCP server daily, and new tools remain unavailable until approved.

**What this entry does not establish:** use or effect. The page gives no figures on plugins, review times or rejections and carries no date; plugins were among the announcements at OpenAI’s DevDay on 29 September 2026. The review covers function and policies, not whether a brand’s statements are true: the plugin’s provider writes the negative test cases itself. **In detail:** A negative case describes a request where the plugin should not act, why it should not, and the expected refusal, clarification or safe fallback. Brand colour and logo, each with a dark variant, are separate fields in the manifest.
