Before you start:
- You'll need a Claude.aiTeam, Enterprise, Pro or Max plan.
- Free Claude accounts can't add custom connectors.
Choose your setup option:
The setup steps depend on which Claude plan you’re on. Pick the option that matches how you access Claude.
| Option 1: Team / Enterprise | Option 2: Pro / Max | |
|---|---|---|
| How you got Claude | Through your company | Your own subscription |
| Who adds the connector | Your organization’s admin, once | You |
| Where it’s added | Organization settings → Connectors | Settings → Connectors |
| What you do | Click Connect and sign in to Intentwise | Add the connector, then click Connect and sign in |
Connection details:
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
| MCP Server URL | https://mcp.intentwise.com/mcp/ |
| Authentication | OAuth |
The trailing slash on the MCP Server URL is required. Connections without it will fail.
Steps for the setup:
A) Claude.ai Team or Enterprise:
On a Team or Enterprise plan, setup happens in two parts:
- Admin step (one-time): A Claude admin in the organization adds the Intentwise connector. Once it’s added, it’s available to everyone in the organization.
- User step (everyone): Each person connects the connector to their own Intentwise account by signing in with their Intentwise credentials.
Not an admin? Ask your Claude admin to complete the admin step first. After that, you only need to do the user step.
Part 1 — Admin (one-time, whole team):
- Click your profile icon in the top-right of Claude.ai and select Organization settings.
- In the left menu, click Connectors.
- Click Add Custom Connector at the bottom of the page.
- Enter: - Name: Intentwise - Server URL:
https://mcp.intentwise.com/mcp/ - Click Save.
Once saved, Intentwise appears in the connector list for every member of the organization.
Part 2 — Each team member:
- Click your profile icon in the top-right of Claude.ai and select Settings → Connectors.
- Find Intentwise in the list (marked Custom) and click Connect.
- Sign in with your Intentwise credentials and authorize the connection.
B) Claude.ai Pro or Max:
Individual Pro and Max users add the connector directly to their own account. No admin is needed.
- Click your profile icon in the top-right of Claude.ai and select Settings → Connectors.
- Click Add Custom Connector at the bottom of the page.
- Enter: - Name: Intentwise - Server URL:
https://mcp.intentwise.com/mcp/ - Click Save, then click Connect.
- Sign in with your Intentwise credentials and authorize the connection.
Using the connector in Claude.ai (all plans):
- Start a new conversation.
- Click the + button at the bottom-left of the input box.
- Select Connectors, then toggle Intentwise on for the conversation.
- Ask your question.

Troubleshooting
| Issue | Resolution |
|---|---|
| Intentwise isn't visible in Settings → Connectors (Team/Enterprise) | Your org admin hasn't added the custom connector yet. Share this article and ask them to complete the steps under Setup — Team or Enterprise → Part 1. |
| "Connection failed" or "Server unreachable" | Confirm the MCP URL ends with a trailing slash (/mcp/, not /mcp). |
| Sign-in window doesn't appear | Allow popups for claude.ai in your browser and click Connect again. |
| "No data returned" | Open Intentwise and confirm at least one Amazon Ads, DSP, Seller Central, or Vendor Central source is connected and has finished its first sync. |
| Claude doesn't seem to use the connector | Confirm the Intentwise toggle is on in the + → Connectors menu for that conversation. Toggles are per-conversation, not global. |
