Setup guide

From zero to analyst in 2 steps

SportIQ runs as a hosted MCP server. Add it as a custom connector in Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor and start asking. Two minutes, no build step — and every tool is free.

1

Add the connector

Paste the hosted SportIQ URL into your AI client as a custom MCP connector — or run it locally with uvx.

2

Start asking

That's it. All 44 tools — data and full intelligence layer — are live immediately. No key, no account.

Hosted MCP endpoint — every tool is free:

https://sportiq-mcp-329580761892.us-central1.run.app/mcp
