IndustryLens Overview

The IndustryLens MCP server brings B2B SaaS competitive intelligence into MCP-compatible clients through a public Streamable HTTP endpoint. It provides company profiles, competitor discovery, strategic-move timelines, pricing changes, reports, comparisons, and category landscapes. Published reports and comparisons can be browsed or retrieved by slug, while market tools map tracked players within a monitored category. Reach for it when an agent needs current, dated competitor or market information rather than private account-level analysis.
