Aim·MCP launch

Aim is now a hosted MCP server. Point any MCP-aware agent at it and it can pull cited, curated market context on demand — your competitors, the people shaping your market, your prospects. Connecting is free, read-only, and takes about a minute. Here's how.

What you're connecting

Aim is a market-intelligence layer for you and your AI agents — think Bloomberg Terminal, but for your competitors, the people shaping your market, and your prospects.

It runs as a hosted, read-only MCP server at mcp.startaiming.com/mcp, curating high-signal sources — partner and founder posts, podcasts, keynote and earnings-call transcripts, filings, niche trade press — into per-topic spaces that stay living, deduplicated, and cited. Most AI tools see under 15% of a topic's sources. Aim sees 89%.

Read-only means it searches and returns context. It never touches or changes your data.

Share of a topic's sources each tool actually found.

Add it to your agent

For Claude.ai, open startaiming.com/install, click Add to Claude, and approve — done.

For everything else, point the client at https://mcp.startaiming.com/mcp. Cursor, VS Code, and Claude Desktop take it as a custom MCP or connector URL; the terminal clients take a one-liner:

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http aim https://mcp.startaiming.com/mcp

Codex

codex mcp add aim --url https://mcp.startaiming.com/mcp

Sign in once

The first tool call opens a browser to sign in — free, no credit card — and approve read-only access. One login works across every client you connect, and it auto-joins you to the free public spaces.

Then just ask

Now talk to your market — who moved this week, what changed in my category, what did that founder say on their last podcast. Aim answers with cited, in-context briefings, not a paraphrase, so you can ask for a source on every claim.

The public spaces are free to try. When you're ready to point it at your own market — your competitors, your accounts, your topics — paid plans add private spaces.
