Connect HostingBrain in about a minute

HostingBrain lives inside the AI assistant your team already uses. Add the connector once, sign in with Google when prompted, and ask your first question. The free tier covers market-level analysis, the methodology and 30 queries/day — no card, no key.

1. Add the connector

https://mcp.hostingbrain.ai/mcp
  • Claude (web/desktop/mobile): Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector → paste the URL
  • ChatGPT (Plus/Pro): Settings → Connectors → Advanced → Developer mode → add the URL
  • Any MCP client: Streamable HTTP + OAuth — sign in with Google on the connect page

2. Ask a real question

Try one of these — each returns the answer with its as-of date, denominator and caveats:

  • “How concentrated is the Danish hosting market, and who effectively owns it?”
  • “What does entry shared hosting cost in the Netherlands, and how steep are renewal cliffs?”
  • “Which European markets have the weakest email enforcement?”

Every published analyst brief and market page carries a prompt that reproduces it.

Scripts and custom integrations

When you outgrow the free tier

Pro adds named operators; Analyst adds dossiers, ownership evidence and integration analysis. Both are monthly subscriptions you can start in a minute and cancel any time - compare plans and subscribe, or book a walkthrough.

Using your subscription key

Polar, our merchant of record, issues the key as soon as you pay and gives you a customer portal - that is where the key, your invoices and the cancel button live. Keys look like HB_PRO-... or HB_ANALYST-....

Add the connector as in step 1, click Connect, and paste the key on the HostingBrain page. Scripts and other MCP clients send it as Authorization: Bearer <your key>. Cancel any time in the portal; the plan runs to the end of the month you have paid for, and the key stops working then.
