Tgget MCP Server

TGGET Niche Research MCP server

Remote Model Context Protocol server of TGGET, a niche research tool for mobile apps and online services. It lets an AI assistant check an idea against measured data instead of guessing from a description.

Give it a search phrase or a description of an idea in your own words. It returns monthly search demand, sub-niches, competitor sites from search results, App Store apps with what their users complain about, community signals and a final report with a verdict: worth building, needs validation or no niche. The verdict is computed by rules from five measured factors, so the same numbers always give the same answer; the language model only explains it.

• Endpoint: https://tgget.io/mcp (Streamable HTTP)
• Authentication: personal access token, sent as a Bearer token. The server tells what it is and lists its tools without a token; every call needs one
• Name in the MCP Registry: io.tgget/niche-research
• Documentation: tgget.io/docs/api

What you can ask

• "Validate this idea: an app that reminds you to water plants and explains how to care for them."
• "Is there demand for an expense tracker for couples? Who are the competitors?"
• "Research the niche 'invoice generator' and give me the report as Markdown."
• "Compare my last three researches and tell me which idea to start with."
• "Follow the niche of my research about habit trackers and show what changed since last month."

Getting a token

1. Create an account at tgget.io or in the Android app and confirm your email. A free account is enough.
2. Open Settings, section "API and AI assistants", and create a token. It is shown once.

Tokens expire after a year and are revoked when you change your password or close your sessions. An account holds up to five tokens.

Connecting

Replace <token> with your token. Ready-made files are in examples.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http tgget https://tgget.io/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer <token>"

Cursor

~/.cursor/mcp.json or .cursor/mcp.json in a project:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tgget": {
      "url": "https://tgget.io/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer <token>" }
    }
  }
}

VS Code

.vscode/mcp.json:

{
  "inputs": [
    { "type": "promptString", "id": "tgget-token", "description": "TGGET access token", "password": true }
  ],
  "servers": {
    "tgget": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://tgget.io/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer ${input:tgget-token}" }
    }
  }
}

Codex

~/.codex/config.toml, with the token in the TGGET_TOKEN environment variable:

[mcp_servers.tgget]
url = "https://tgget.io/mcp"
bearer_token_env_var = "TGGET_TOKEN"

Clients that only run local servers

Use the mcp-remote bridge:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tgget": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://tgget.io/mcp", "--header", "Authorization: Bearer <token>"]
    }
  }
}

Tools

locale sets the language of the conclusions and the report; en is the one available now. The market is chosen by the language of the phrase: search demand is measured in the country of that language. Texts meant for a site or an app store are always written in the language of the market.

Resources and prompt

How a research runs

Research runs in the background and takes a few minutes.

1. Call start_research. It returns the research id.
2. Poll get_research every 20 to 30 seconds until status is completed and pending is 0. Findings appear as they arrive.
3. When the research lists a report, call get_report.

Limits and privacy

• A research is counted when it starts. Checks added to an existing research with run_signal are free.
• The free plan includes three researches to start and one more every 30 days. Paid plans are on the plans page and are bought in the mobile app; the same account works everywhere.
• A free account follows one niche, Starter two, Pro ten.
• Researches made on the free plan are public: the result may be listed in the open niche catalog. The catalog shows the researched phrase and its findings, never the description you typed. Researches on paid plans stay private.
• The API and the MCP server share a limit of 60 requests per minute.
• Search interest is evidence, not a customer count. Treat the verdict as a starting point for your own validation.
