# Instinct MCP > Instinct MCP is a commercial, remotely-hosted Model Context Protocol (MCP) > server that connects AI assistants (Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok) to > Fox & Crow's managed-services-provider (MSP) market intelligence for the > English-speaking world. Users ask about any MSP in plain language and the assistant > returns real, sourced data — firmographics, operating-maturity scores, > technology and vendor detection, reputation, hiring and change signals — billed > as prepaid pay-as-you-go credits metered per tool call. ## 1. Product definition Instinct MCP exposes the Instinct database as MCP tools an AI assistant can call during a conversation. It is a remote MCP server at https://mcp.mspmcp.com/mcp using streamable HTTP with OAuth 2.1 sign-in. Nothing to install; add the connector URL to a supported assistant and sign in. ## 2. The problem it solves Researching the MSP market by hand — figuring out which companies genuinely operate as MSPs, how mature they are, what they run, and what changed — is slow and error-prone. Instinct MCP puts that intelligence one question away, inside the assistant the user already works in. ## 3. Market context Instinct maps the MSP market across the English-speaking world — North America, the UK & Ireland, and Australia & New Zealand: tens of thousands of companies that sell managed services, distinguishing true MSPs from resellers and break-fix shops, built from millions of human and machine observations rather than scraped listings. ## 4. Capabilities (tool suite) - Company profiles and firmographics - FCML operating-maturity scoring (transparent; every score can be opened) - Technology and vendor detection - Territory health and market density - Reputation (Google, Glassdoor, Indeed) - Hiring signals and social presence - Revenue estimates (with confidence bands and disclaimers) - Infrastructure and security posture (DNS, SPF/DMARC, TLS) - SEO, web performance, and SERP visibility - Cohort benchmarking - Change signals (what changed since last time) - Market sizing and segment counts ## 5. Who it's for - Channel sales and marketing teams selling to and through MSPs - Security and SaaS vendors targeting MSPs - Analysts and M&A researchers - Anyone doing MSP account research from an AI assistant ## 6. How to connect The endpoint is the same for every client: https://mcp.mspmcp.com/mcp - Claude: Settings → Connectors → add a custom connector → paste the URL → sign in - ChatGPT: enable Developer mode → Connectors → Create → paste the URL → OAuth - Gemini: Settings → Connected apps → Custom apps → enter the MCP server URL - Grok: grok.com → Connectors → New → Custom → paste the URL ## 7. Pricing Prepaid credits, metered per tool call. Pay-as-you-go, no per-seat fees. Buy and manage credits at https://mcp.mspmcp.com/plans. Billing happens on the Instinct MCP site, never inside the assistant. ## 8. Privacy No analytics, advertising, or tracking technologies. Instinct MCP collects only what is needed to create an account, authenticate the user, meter usage, and take payment. Policy: https://mcp.mspmcp.com/privacy ## 9.
