Inqvey MCP Server

Run real quantitative market research directly in Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, ChatGPT Desktop, and other AI tools via the Model Context Protocol.

What it does

Inqvey gives your AI assistant a real market research engine. Instead of guessing, it returns actual percentage distributions for any question you ask your target audience. Results are:

• ±2-6pp accuracy validated against Ipsos human panel studies
• Equivalent to surveying ~1,000 respondents
• Delivered in ~5 minutes per question (15-20 min for a typical 3-question research run)

Use cases: demand validation, pricing research, purchase intent, feature prioritization, message testing, audience analysis.

Why MCP (vs asking your AI directly)

Your AI can guess at market research questions from general knowledge. But guesses are not data. Inqvey runs an actual simulation calibrated against real human survey panels, so you get statistical percentages you can use to make product, pricing, or marketing decisions.
