Create your account
Any email address works. Enter it, pick a password, and you're in.

The sign-up screen. Email and password is all it takes.
Add credits
Capability calls are paid for with credits, so your account needs some before your AI agent can pull data. Open Credits in the sidebar and pick a pack. There is no subscription: you pay only for what you use, and credits never expire.
- Starter ($20) is enough to run a couple dozen property and market lookups and see what your agent can do.
- Growth and up suit steady weekly research; larger packs lower the per-credit price.
- Optional auto-recharge tops you up automatically when your balance drops below a threshold you set, capped at one recharge per 24 hours.

The Credits page: your balance, the packs, and auto-recharge.
Create a Connection
A Connection is a set of credentials that lets one AI agent reach Marketproof MCP. Open Connections in the sidebar and click New Connection. Name it after the agent it will serve ("Claude", "ChatGPT", "Claude Desktop") so your usage stays easy to read later. You can create as many as you like, one per agent is the clean setup.

The Connections page. One Connection per agent keeps usage tidy.
When you click Create, your credentials appear: a Client ID and a Client Secret.

Your credentials. Copy the Client ID and Client Secret now.
Connect your AI agent
Open Connect AI in the sidebar. The guided flow asks which agent you're connecting, pairs it with a Connection, and then shows the exact clicks for that platform, ending with a test you can run to confirm everything works.

Step one of the wizard: pick your agent.
Whichever platform you pick, the ingredients are always the same three values:
- Server URL:
https://mcp.marketproof.com/tools - Client ID and Client Secret: from the Connection you created in step 4.
In Claude, that means adding a custom connector in Settings > Connectors and pasting the three values. In ChatGPT, it's a connector under Settings > Connectors with the same values. The wizard shows the current click path for each platform, so follow it rather than memorizing menus. There are dedicated walkthroughs for Claude (Claude.ai and the Claude Desktop app) and ChatGPT (Plus, Pro, Business, and Enterprise).

The wizard pairs your agent with a Connection, then walks the platform-specific steps.
Ask your first question
Open a fresh chat with your agent and ask something concrete. Good first prompts:
The first time your agent calls a Marketproof capability, it may ask you to approve the connection. Approve it once and you're off. To see the kind of finished deliverables agents produce from prompts like these, browse the worked examples.

Your dashboard fills in as your agent works: calls, credits used, and daily activity.
Troubleshooting
"Insufficient credits"
Your balance hit zero. Buy a pack on the Credits page, or turn on auto-recharge so it doesn't happen mid-analysis.
Lost the Client Secret
Secrets are shown once and can't be recovered. Open the Connection and rotate the secret, then paste the new one into your agent. The Client ID stays the same.
"Tool not allowed"
The Connection's permissions exclude that capability. Open the Connection and toggle it on, or set the default policy to allow all.
Agent can't see Marketproof
Re-check the three values: the server URL is https://mcp.marketproof.com/tools, and the ID and secret belong to the same Connection. Still stuck? Contact us and we'll get you sorted.
