No usage claims. Nobody has run this tool. The other tier is BENCH-TESTED, which means Andrew personally ran the tool on a stated date and cannot be bought at any price. Across the whole directory that count is 1. Vendor: [https://hginsights.com](https://hginsights.com) · entry id 05-hg-insights · source 05-signals-intent-abm.md line 235 **What it does** Aggregates B2B technographic data (software/tech a company runs, sourced from job postings, web crawling, public filings, partner feeds), firmographics, IT spend estimates, and third-party intent (via TrustRadius review/research activity) into a unified company profile. **AI features, separated from automation with an AI label on it** Long-standing data-aggregation/technographics business that predates the "AI" framing. Newer "RGI Agent Builder" and MCP layer expose existing structured data to AI agents - infrastructure for AI, not AI-derived data itself; skeptical of "AI-ready infrastructure" marketing beyond that. **RevOps role** Firmographic/technographic enrichment and account intelligence, feeding ICP fit-scoring and territory/account prioritization upstream of outbound. **MCP server** - **Status bucket**: Official MCP - **Auth**: api key (`x-api-key` header; throttled to 100 calls/60 seconds per connection) - **Parsed URLs**: 1 found in the mcp_url field - **Endpoint probe**: docs page, not an endpoint - **Docs URL**: [https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/connectors/hginsightsmcp/](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/connectors/hginsightsmcp/) - **Probed**: 2026-09-04, HTTP 200 The vendor ships and maintains the server itself. A wrapper built by Zapier, Composio or a similar third party does not count as official. The status was established by hand on 2026-08-24. On 2026-09-04 the recorded URL served a documentation page, not an MCP endpoint. That is where to read about the server, not where to connect to it. An agent needs the second. mcp_status, verbatim from the file: official mcp_url, verbatim from the file: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/connectors/hginsightsmcp/ (Microsoft-certified connector, publisher HG Insights) - [https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/connectors/hginsightsmcp/](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/connectors/hginsightsmcp/) **What this server exposes** - **Tools named**: 43 - **Strongest evidence**: in the vendor docs - **Harvested**: 2026-09-27 - **Catalogue shape**: a fixed catalogue the vendor publishes A tool below is one the server NAMES. Nobody has called it. That is the same two tier honesty rule the rest of the directory runs on: a named tool is research, and BENCH-TESTED stays the only claim that anybody ran anything. - **company_ai_maturity** Company AI Maturity evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **company_cloud_spend** Company Cloud Spend evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **company_contracts** Company Contracts evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **company_fai** FAI Scores evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **company_firmographic** Company Firmographics evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **company_gov_opportunities** Company Gov Opportunities evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **company_gov_relationships** Company Gov Relationships evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **company_install_time_series** Company Install Time Series evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **company_intent** Company Intent evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **company_operating_signals** Company Operating Signals evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **company_research** Company Research evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **company_spend** Company Spend evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **company_technographic** Company Technographics evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **contact_enrich** Contact Enrich evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **contact_search** Contact Search evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **customer_data_explore** Customer Data Explore evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **customer_data_query** Customer Data Query evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **get_company_hierarchy** Company Hierarchy evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **get_product_attribute** Get Product Attribute evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **get_product_category** Get Product Category evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **get_product_information** Product Information evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **get_product_reviews** Product Reviews evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **get_vendor_information** Vendor Information evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **hg_catalog** HG Data Catalog evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **hg_data_query** HG Data Query evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **hg_query** HG Query (NL to SQL) evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **intent_category** Intent Category evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **list_fai_departments** FAI Departments evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **list_intent_topics** Intent Topics evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **phoenix_get_artifact** Get Artifact evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **phoenix_get_run_status** Get Run Status evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **phoenix_invoke_agent** Invoke Agent evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **phoenix_list_agents** List Agents evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **phoenix_list_artifacts** List Artifacts evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **phoenix_onboarding** Guided Onboarding evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **product_search_and_enrich** Product Search and Enrich evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **search_companies** Company Search evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **search_federal_contracts** Search Federal Contracts evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **search_gov_opportunities** Search Gov Opportunities evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **search_industries_naics_sic** Industry Search (NAICS/SIC) evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **sec_filing_section** SEC Filing Section evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **sec_full_text_search** SEC Full Text Search evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads - **web_search** Web Search evidence: in the vendor docs · calling it reads 141 of the 741 entries that record an official or community MCP server carry a harvested tool list. The other 600 are unmeasured, which is not the same as empty. Harvest last run 2026-09-27. Every name across every server is on the [tools index](../tools-index.md). **Command line** No CLI found by the 2026-09-27 harvest across vendor docs, npm, PyPI, Homebrew and GitHub. That is a probe result, not proof of absence. **Access gate** - **Gate bucket**: Enterprise only - **Can a solo operator reach it**: Not without a contract api_gate, verbatim from the file: enterprise-only **API documentation** No documentation URL recorded. 727 of 1252 entries are in the same position. Blank is legal and it is published as blank. **GitHub health** Not measured. github_url, github_stars, github_last_commit and github_archived are null on every entry in this build. The refresh rail specced in SPEC section 7.2 has not been run. An unstamped star count is a lie, so nothing is shown rather than something stale. **On GitHub** [github.com/HGData](https://github.com/HGData) tied to the vendor by rule 3, account website http://www.hginsights.com has the vendor's domain, confidence strong - **Public repositories**: 27, forks excluded, as read on 2026-09-08 - **Mention MCP**: 0 of them - **Look like CLIs**: 1 of them - **Latest push**: 2026-02-20 The five most recently pushed, on 2026-09-08: | Repository | Kind | Description | Stars | Pushed | Latest release | |---|---|---|---|---|---| | [action-setup-elixir](https://github.com/HGData/action-setup-elixir) | SDK | Checks out the code, configures Elixir, fetches dependencies, and manages build caching | 0 | 2026-02-20 | v1.0.6 | | [mk-developers](https://github.com/HGData/mk-developers) | other | | 2 | 2024-09-12 | | | [mk-node-mixpanel-export](https://github.com/HGData/mk-node-mixpanel-export) | other | | 0 | 2024-07-09 | | | [mk-node-marketo](https://github.com/HGData/mk-node-marketo) | other | REST Client for Marketo API | 50 | 2024-02-05 | 0.7.8 | | [mk-node-eloqua](https://github.com/HGData/mk-node-eloqua) | other | | 4 | 2024-01-03 | 1.3.5 | Kind is a heuristic guessed from the repository name, topics and description, not a fact the vendor stated.

The finder searched GitHub ("HG Insights mcp", owners hginsights and HGInsights), npm, PyPI and the official registry and probed https://mcp.hginsights.com/mcp with no result.
