IntelCue MCP Server

Live market & competitor intelligence inside Claude and any MCP-compatible AI assistant.

IntelCue is an AI-first competitive and market intelligence

platform. It continuously monitors your sources — newsletters, blogs,

news, YouTube, websites, Google Ads, patents, SEC filings, Certificate Transparency (new subdomains), and more — then analyzes everything for

trending topics, competitive moves, and keywords. This repository

documents the IntelCue MCP server, which exposes that intelligence to AI assistants via

the Model Context Protocol.

> Ask your AI assistant about your market and competitors, and it pulls from your live,

> continuously-updated IntelCue data automatically. Learn more at

> **www.intelcue.ai**.

What is the IntelCue MCP server?

A hosted, remote MCP server (Streamable HTTP) that gives AI assistants read-only access to

your IntelCue workspace. It scopes every response to your authenticated workspace, so your

data stays private to you.

• Endpoint: `https://api.intelcue.ai/v1/mcp/sse`
• Transport: Streamable HTTP (official MCP SDK)
• Auth: your IntelCue API key (`ic_sk_…`) — via OAuth, `Authorization: Bearer`, or the

`x-api-key` header

Connect

Option 1 — Smithery (easiest)

Install from the Smithery listing and paste your IntelCue API key when

prompted.
