How to connect your AI to Outmano's data

Outmano has an MCP server at https://outmano.com/mcp. Connect it and your AI assistant can answer questions like “what pricing changes did my competitors make this month?” using your workspace’s live data. Access is read-only and included in every plan.

1. Create an API key

1. Go to Integrations → MCP. Anyone in the workspace can see the page and the list of keys, but only the workspace owner can create or revoke one.
2. Under Generate a new key, give the key a label, confirm your password, and click Generate key. (If you signed in with Google there’s no password to confirm.)
3. Copy the key (it starts with outmano_sk_) — it’s shown only once. If you lose it, revoke it and create a new one.

You can have up to 5 active keys, and revoke any of them instantly from the same page.

2. Add Outmano to your AI client

Replace YOUR_KEY with the key you just created.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http outmano \
  https://outmano.com/mcp \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY"

Claude Desktop — add to claude_desktop_config.json:

{ "mcpServers": { "outmano": {
    "command": "npx",
    "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote",
      "https://outmano.com/mcp", "--header",
      "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY"] } } }

Cursor — add to .cursor/mcp.json:

{ "mcpServers": { "outmano": {
    "url": "https://outmano.com/mcp",
    "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_KEY" } } } }

Codex CLI — add to ~/.codex/config.toml:

[mcp_servers.outmano]
command = "npx"
args = ["-y", "mcp-remote",
  "https://outmano.com/mcp",
  "--header", "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY"]

Any other MCP client works too, as long as it supports HTTP transport with headers (or the mcp-remote bridge). ChatGPT custom apps aren’t supported yet — they’re OAuth-only today.

3. Ask in plain English

Once connected, your assistant can pull from your workspace:

• Recent pricing changes with before/after detail
• SEO snapshots — domain rating, organic traffic, top keywords for you and each competitor
• Competitors’ new blog posts
• Roadmap changes — features added, shipped, renamed, removed
• Recent reviews and rating summaries
• News mentions — funding, acquisitions and layoffs
• The feature matrix and the feature gaps it flags
• Your weekly action plans
• A competitor’s battlecard, if one has been generated
• The unified activity feed, same as your dashboard

Try: “Summarize what my competitors changed this week” or “Which competitor gained the most organic traffic this quarter?”

Revoke a key

Go to Integrations → MCP and click Revoke next to the key — it stops working immediately. Keys only ever see the competitors your own workspace tracks.
