MCP server · Business Software and Services Reviews | G2

g2-mcp

G2 operates an official remote MCP server at https://mcp.g2.com/mcp, authenticated with OAuth 2.0 Authorization Code + PKCE against G2's own authorization server (https://www.g2.com/oauth/authorize). It exposes G2 buyer intent, competitive intelligence, product catalog, category taxonomy, review analytics and research boards to MCP clients. G2 does NOT ship a local stdio package — there is no npx/pip install; the only way to reach it is the hosted HTTPS endpoint. The tool list below is transcribed verbatim from G2's published "Supported MCP tools" table; live tools/list is auth-gated (see x-evidence).

One-click install for Cursor, VS Code, Claude, and 20+ other MCP clients, powered by API Commons MCP Install — visit install.apicommons.org for more information.

Connect

This is a remote MCP server — point an MCP client at the endpoint URL. Clients with native remote support (Claude, Cursor, VS Code, …):

# mcp client config (e.g. .mcp.json / mcp settings) { "mcpServers": { "business-software-and-services-reviews-g2": { "url": "https://mcp.g2.com/mcp" } } }

For stdio-only clients (older Claude Desktop, etc.), bridge with mcp-remote:

# Add to claude_desktop_config.json { "mcpServers": { "business-software-and-services-reviews-g2": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://mcp.g2.com/mcp"] } } }

If the server requires authentication, add the provider's token/header (e.g. an X-API-Key) per its docs. A quick reachability check:

curl -i -X POST https://mcp.g2.com/mcp \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Accept: application/json, text/event-stream" \ -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/list"}'

About MCP

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open protocol Anthropic introduced for connecting LLM-based agents to external tools and data sources. Providers publish MCP servers that expose their API surface as structured, discoverable tools — an MCP-compatible client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cline, Continue, etc.) can connect to the server and call its tools without any per-provider integration code.

Browse every MCP server on the APIs.io network or compare with the broader Agent Skill surfaces of the same providers.
