AskCyborg MCP Server
Official MCP server for AskCyborg. Search and retrieve AI company research, analyst-debate audio briefings, and the proprietary Cyborg Score (1-10) — directly from Claude, Cursor, Cline, Continue, Windsurf, ChatGPT, and any other Model Context Protocol client.
AskCyborg stress tests every public and private company through intense analyst debate, focused on what makes or breaks the business decisions that ride on them — packaged as 30-page reports, audio briefings, and a proprietary Cyborg Score (1-10) calculated from hundreds of data points per company.
