Overview

Gralio SaaS Database MCP Server

A free hosted MCP server giving an AI assistant access to Gralio's database of 3M+ SaaS reviews, pricing, alternatives, and funding data for 30,000+ products. Use it for grounded software research and competitive intelligence instead of ad hoc web search; it is read-only and does not manage your own SaaS accounts.

What it does

This MCP server gives an LLM access to Gralio's database covering over 3 million SaaS reviews, detailed pricing data, competitor alternatives, ratings, funding information, growth metrics, user sentiment analysis, and functional feature data for more than 30,000 software products. The goal is to turn the connected model into a software research assistant that works from structured, comprehensive data rather than polluted web searches and marketing noise - all accessible through Gralio's free hosted MCP endpoint, with no local data hosting required.

Example use cases it supports include finding cheaper or easier alternatives to popular SaaS tools without sacrificing features, discovering tools that match specific feature requirements or use cases, scouting high-growth competitors in a market space before they become major threats, and getting a quick sentiment overview of what users are saying about a product across the web.

When to use - and when NOT to

Use it when you need grounded, aggregated data on SaaS products - pricing comparisons, alternative-tool discovery, competitor growth tracking, or review sentiment - instead of relying on an LLM's general knowledge or ad hoc web search. It is a read-only research data source, not a tool for managing your own SaaS subscriptions or configurations.

Capabilities

The server exposes Gralio's dataset through a single hosted MCP endpoint (https://market.gralio.ai/mcp/sse) rather than a set of individually named local tools: reviews and sentiment scores, pricing tiers and feature breakdowns, competitor and alternative mapping, and company funding/growth trajectories, all scoped to over 30,000 tracked software products.

How to install

Because the server is hosted remotely over SSE, integration is a matter of pointing your client at the endpoint. For Cursor, add to .cursor/mcp.json (project) or ~/.cursor/mcp.json (global):

{
    "mcpServers": {
        "gralio": {
            "url": "https://market.gralio.ai/mcp/sse"
        }
    }
}

Windsurf/Cascade uses the same JSON block added under Settings then Advanced Settings then Cascade; VS Code uses an equivalent servers block in .vscode/mcp.json with "type": "sse". Claude Desktop does not support remote SSE servers natively, so it needs a local bridge via supergateway:

npx -y supergateway --sse "https://market.gralio.ai/mcp/sse"

then the equivalent supergateway command block added to the Claude MCP configuration file, followed by restarting Claude Desktop.

Who it's for

Product researchers, buyers evaluating SaaS options, and competitive-intelligence teams who want an AI assistant to answer software comparison, pricing, alternatives, and market-sentiment questions from a structured dataset instead of unreliable web search - for example scouting cheaper alternatives to a tool already in use, or checking a competitor's funding trajectory and review sentiment before a market move.

โš™๏ธ Integration Instructions

Cursor Integration

To connect Gralio MCP to your Cursor editor, add the following configuration in either:

  • Project Configuration: Create .cursor/mcp.json in your project directory
  • Global Configuration: Create ~/.cursor/mcp.json in your home directory
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "gralio": {
            "url": "https://market.gralio.ai/mcp/sse"
        }
    }
}

Windsurf & Cascade Integration

  1. Navigate to Windsurf settings (Settings > Advanced Settings)
  2. Scroll down to the Cascade section
  3. Add a new MCP server with the following configuration:
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "gralio": {
            "url": "https://market.gralio.ai/mcp/sse"
        }
    }
}

VS Code Integration

Create or modify .vscode/mcp.json in your project's root directory:

{
    "servers": {
        "GralioSaaS": {
            "type": "sse",
            "url": "https://market.gralio.ai/mcp/sse"
        }
    }
}

Claude Desktop Integration

Claude Desktop supports remote HTTP/SSE MCP servers via supergateway:

  1. Test Supergateway:

    npx -y supergateway --sse "https://market.gralio.ai/mcp/sse"
    
  2. Configure Claude Desktop:
    Add to your Claude MCP configuration file:

    {
        "mcpServers": {
            "gralio_remote": {
                "command": "npx",
                "args": [
                    "-y",
                    "supergateway",
                    "--sse",
                    "https://market.gralio.ai/mcp/sse"
                ]
