Confluent announces Real-Time Context Engine

Confluent (CFLT) announced Real-Time Context Engine, a fully managed service using Model Context Protocol. The service delivers real-time, structured data and accurate, relevant context to any artificial intelligence agent, copilot, or large language model-powered application, Confluent said. “AI is only as good as its context,” said Sean Falconer, Head of AI at Confluent. “Enterprises have the data, but it’s often stale, fragmented, or locked in formats that AI can’t use effectively. Real-Time Context Engine solves this by unifying data processing, reprocessing, and serving, turning continuous data streams into live context for smarter, faster, and more reliable AI decisions.”
