Claude connectors and MCP for 350+ data sources

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is the open standard Claude uses to talk to outside tools. A Claude MCP, or MCP server, is a service that exposes data or actions to Claude in that format; every connector in Claude’s directory is one. You host some MCP servers yourself and register them in Claude Code or the desktop app; others, like Windsor MCP, are listed in the directory and added with one click.

Windsor MCP is Windsor.ai’s MCP server for business data. It gives Claude read access to 350+ sources (ad platforms, analytics, social, e-commerce, CRM, warehouses) and write access on Meta Ads, Google Ads, TikTok Ads, LinkedIn Ads and Microsoft Ads, with every change confirmed by you first. There is nothing to host and no data preparation, and the same server works in the Claude app, on the web and in Claude Code.

Yes, and it is the same one. Windsor MCP covers all of them from a single connector, so you do not need a separate MCP server per platform. The sources people ask about most, each with its own setup page and example prompts:

• Instagram to Claude (insights for your own account, plus public data for any account)
• Google Ads to Claude (read and write: pause, budgets, negative keywords, new campaigns)
• Meta Ads to Claude (read and write)
• Google Analytics 4 to Claude (for Google’s own GA4 server, see the Google Analytics MCP guide)
• Google Search Console to Claude
• Google Sheets to Claude (the data in your sheets, into Claude)
• Pinterest to Claude, Salesforce to Claude, Shopify to Claude

Every other source is in the list at the top of this page. Connect two or more and Claude can blend them in one answer, for example Meta Ads spend against Shopify revenue.

Through Windsor.ai, Claude can connect to any of 350+ business data sources: ad platforms (Meta Ads, Google Ads, TikTok Ads, LinkedIn Ads, Microsoft Ads), analytics (GA4, Google Search Console), social (Instagram, Facebook Pages, LinkedIn Pages, TikTok, YouTube), e-commerce, CRM and email (Shopify, HubSpot, Salesforce, Klaviyo) and warehouses (BigQuery, Snowflake, Redshift). The full list is on this page.

Once connected, Claude reads your campaign, customer and revenue data to answer questions in plain language. On Meta Ads, Google Ads, TikTok Ads, LinkedIn Ads and Microsoft Ads it can also make changes, such as pausing a campaign or updating a budget, after you confirm. Claude only sees the accounts and sources you authorize; nothing else in your Windsor.ai account is exposed.

For anything in Claude’s directory: open Claude, go to Customize (or Settings) and then Connectors, and use the search box. To add Windsor.ai, search “Windsor” and click Add, then sign in to your Windsor.ai account when prompted. The connector stays in your list, so you do not need to add it again for new chats.

In Claude Code, install the Windsor.ai plugin from the terminal with claude plugin install windsor-ai and the same data sources are available there.

To use it, ask a question about your data in any chat, for example “Summarize last month’s Meta Ads spend by campaign”, and Claude pulls the connected data itself.

Three steps:

1. Connect your data source(s) to Windsor.ai and select the account(s) you want to pull data from.
2. In Claude, open Customize, then Connectors, search for Windsor and click Add. Sign in to your Windsor.ai account, and the connector appears in your Connectors list. You can also open the Windsor.ai listing in the Claude directory and click Connect.
3. Start a new chat and ask Claude questions about your data, or tell it what to change on your ad accounts.

Did our campaigns drive revenue? What is our true marketing ROI? What happens after a customer sees an ad?
