What Claude can do with Octolens

Ask instead of query

“What are people saying about our launch this week?” — Claude searches mentions, filters by sentiment and relevance, and summarizes with links.

Analytics in conversation

Volume trends, share of voice, sentiment by keyword — Claude runs the analytics tools and explains what changed.

Manage the workspace

Add keywords, review suggestions, create feeds, and point them at Slack channels — write tools are clearly marked and always yours to approve.

Feed your agent workflows

Claude Code agents use the same connection to run playbooks from our skills library — triage, tickets, CRM deals, content research.

Connect Claude in under a minute

OAuth handles authentication — there's no API key to create, paste, or rotate.

Claude Code: add the server

Run the command, then type /mcp inside Claude Code and pick octolens → Authenticate. A browser tab opens — sign in to Octolens and you're connected.

Terminal
claude mcp add --transport http octolens \
  "https://app.octolens.com/api/mcp/v2"

# Then inside Claude Code:
/mcp
# → octolens → Authenticate (opens browser sign-in)

Claude Desktop / Web: add a connector

Go to Settings → Connectors → Add Custom Connector and paste the server URL. Claude opens a browser tab to sign in — no client ID or secret to enter.

Server URL
# Settings → Connectors → Add Custom Connector
https://app.octolens.com/api/mcp/v2

# Alternative for Claude Desktop (claude_desktop_config.json):
# { "mcpServers": { "octolens": {
#     "command": "npx",
#     "args": ["mcp-remote", "https://app.octolens.com/api/mcp/v2"] } } }

Start asking

Try a few prompts to see the shape of what's possible — every answer comes with the underlying mentions linked.

Example prompts
What are people saying about us this week? Anything negative I should see?
Compare mention volume for us vs [competitor] over the last 30 days.
Create a feed for buy-intent mentions and send it to #sales-signals in Slack.

Frequently asked questions

No. The connection uses OAuth — Claude opens a browser tab, you sign in to Octolens, done. Access can be revoked any time from your Octolens settings.

Only through the write tools, which are clearly marked — adding keywords, creating feeds, wiring destinations. Claude asks before acting, and everything it does is visible in your workspace.

Both, plus Claude on the web — Claude Code via the CLI command, Desktop and web via a custom connector. Same server, same OAuth sign-in.

Every plan, including the trial. MCP, the REST API, and webhooks are never enterprise-gated at Octolens.
