Connecting to the Amplemarket MCP Server

Last updated: April 10, 2026

What is MCP?

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) lets you connect AI assistants like Claude, ChatGPT, and Cursor directly to your Amplemarket account. Once connected, you can search for prospects, enrich contacts and companies, manage lead lists, check on your contacts' activity, and more — all through natural conversation with your AI assistant.

See the full list of currently available tools below. We're actively expanding our MCP capabilities, with sequence enrollment and more coming soon. If you have feedback about a tool you think the MCP is missing, make sure to ping us via feedback.amplemarket.com.

Prerequisites

  • An active Amplemarket account

  • An MCP-compatible AI client (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or any client that supports remote MCP servers)

MCP Server URL

https://mcp.amplemarket.com/mcp

Setup Instructions

Claude

Go to claude.ai and:

  1. Open Customize → Connectors

  2. Add a new custom connector named “Amplemarket”

  3. Set the URL to https://mcp.amplemarket.com/mcp

  4. Click Add

  5. Find Amplemarket in your list of Connectors and click Connect to authenticate

Adding custom MCP connectors in Claude requires a Pro, Max, Team, or Enterprise plan. We’re working on publishing Amplemarket to the Claude Connectors Directory, which will make it available on all plans.

ChatGPT

Go to chatgpt.com and:

  1. Navigate to Settings → Apps → Advanced settings

  2. Enable Developer mode

  3. Click Create app

  4. Enter “Amplemarket” as the Name of the app (and if you want you can get a nice Amplemarket logo to use as icon from our website)

  5. Set the MCP Server URL to https://mcp.amplemarket.com/mcp

  6. Set Authentication to “OAuth” and leave Client ID and Client Secret blank

  7. Authenticate via your browser when prompted

Adding custom MCP connectors in ChatGPT requires a Plus, Pro, Team, or Enterprise plan. We’re working on publishing Amplemarket to the ChatGPT App Store, which will make it available on all plans.

Other Tools

Claude Code

Run the following command in your terminal:

claude mcp add amplemarket --transport http https://mcp.amplemarket.com/mcp

For more details, see Claude Code’s guide on connecting MCP servers.

Cursor

Add the following to your Cursor MCP settings (~/.cursor/mcp.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "amplemarket": {
      "url": "https://mcp.amplemarket.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Then navigate to Cursor Settings → Tools & MCP and click Connect next to Amplemarket to authenticate.

Other Clients

Any MCP-compatible client can connect using the server URL above. Refer to your client’s documentation for how to add a remote MCP server.

Authentication

Amplemarket MCP uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication. When you connect for the first time, a browser window will open where you can sign in to your Amplemarket account and approve access. No API keys are needed.

Each user authenticates individually — the MCP server accesses data based on your personal Amplemarket account permissions.

  • Sequences — List your sequences and enroll leads directly from your AI assistant. "Add these people to my cold outreach sequence."

Credits

The enrich_person tool consumes 0.5 credits per enrichment — the same cost as enriching through the Amplemarket app. Results are cached for 24 hours, so repeated enrichments within that window won't cost additional credits. Revealing email addresses or phone numbers costs additional credits on top of the base enrichment.

Rate Limits

The MCP server is rate limited to 100 requests per minute per user. If you exceed this limit, requests will be temporarily throttled.

FAQ

Do I need an API key?

No. Amplemarket MCP uses OAuth authentication. You'll sign in through your browser when connecting for the first time.

What permissions does it need?

The MCP server requests read and write access to your Amplemarket account. Read access allows searching and enriching data. Write access enables actions like creating lead lists and enrolling leads in sequences.

Does it work with other MCP clients?

Yes. Any client that supports remote MCP servers can connect using the URL https://mcp.amplemarket.com/mcp.

I'm having authentication issues

Try disconnecting and reconnecting the server in your client. For Claude Code, you can clear cached credentials by deleting the ~/.mcp-auth directory.

Are my queries visible to other users?

No. Each user authenticates individually, and all queries are scoped to your own account and permissions.
