GP Intel MCP Server
Verified European private equity ownership data, queryable from any AI assistant.
Ask Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor who owns a company, what a PE firm holds, or what it exited in a given year — answered from hand-checked data covering 21,000+ portfolio companies and 900+ European GPs, with a source link on every response.
- Endpoint:
https://www.gp-intel.com/api/mcp - Transport: Streamable HTTP
- Authentication: none (public, read-only)
- Setup guide: gp-intel.com/ai
This repository holds the public metadata and documentation for the hosted server. There is nothing to install or run from here — the server lives at the endpoint above.
Quick start
Claude (claude.ai): Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector → paste the endpoint URL. No OAuth fields needed.
Claude Code:
claude mcp add --transport http gp-intel https://www.gp-intel.com/api/mcp
ChatGPT: Settings → Apps & Connectors → Developer mode → Create → server URL https://www.gp-intel.com/api/mcp, no authentication.
Cursor / any MCP client — add to mcp.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"gp-intel": { "url": "https://www.gp-intel.com/api/mcp" }
}
}
Tools
| Tool | What it answers | Ask your assistant |
|---|---|---|
who_owns | Current PE owner(s) and the full ownership history of a company: entries, exits, routes. | "Who owns Bark.com?" |
gp_portfolio | Portfolio companies of a PE firm, filterable to active or exited positions. | "List the active portfolio of PAI Partners." |
gp_exits | Exits of a PE firm, optionally for one year — the query generic AI search gets wrong. | "What did Ardian exit in 2024?" |
search_companies | Search 21,000+ PE-backed companies by name. | "Find companies named Revima." |
search_gps | Search 900+ European PE firms, with country, AUM and strategies. | "Search PE firms named Astorg." |
All tools are read-only (readOnlyHint: true) and query GP Intel's own dataset — no open-web access, no third-party calls.
