Competitor Tracker MCP server
Track your competitors from inside your AI assistant. This is the remote Model Context Protocol server for Competitor Tracker & Co. Subscribe to competitors, read their change feed, and pull page snapshots straight from Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT, or any other MCP client. No browser tab required.

Not ready to connect? Watch the agent desk: a recorded Claude session on this MCP server, working a live case of 25 competitive-intelligence rivals from April to July. Real tool calls, real detected changes. The same case as a Monday email brief sits next door, and the demo hub shows both.

Authentication
On the first tool call the server walks you through an OAuth sign-in. For headless or automated use, generate an API key in the app and send it as an X-API-Key header. See API keys.
The server exposes ~50 tools across the workspace. A sample:
| Tool | What it does |
|---|
list_competitors | List the competitors your organization tracks |
subscribe_competitor | Start tracking a competitor by URL |
list_org_changes | Read the organization-wide change feed, with filters |
get_competitor_timeline | Chronological activity for one competitor |
list_snapshots / get_snapshot | Tracked-page snapshots with HTML, markdown and screenshots |
list_labels / assign_label | Organize competitors with labels |
create_dispatch | Set up a notification / weekly dossier |
create_webhook | Register a webhook endpoint for changes |
Read tools need no special scope; write tools modify your workspace and destructive tools require an explicit confirm: true. The complete, always-current catalogue is at competitortracker.io/docs/mcp/tools.
Who it's for
Founders, product and marketing teams who already live in an AI assistant and want competitor intelligence where they work: pricing moves, page changes, launches. Not in yet another dashboard.
About this repository
This repo is the public listing and manifest for the Competitor Tracker MCP server (server.json, client config, install notes). The server itself runs remotely at https://mcp.competitortracker.io/mcp, so there is nothing to build or host here. To use it, just point your client at the endpoint.
