Guide

Can I see my competitors' Meta and Google ads from ChatGPT or Claude?

Yes, for the rivals whose ad sources you turn on in Spiderlook. A daily scan collects Meta and Google ads and keeps them as evidence. Claude Desktop, the claude.ai connector, and ChatGPT can ask about that project through the MCP server. Among other tools, public pages confirm ad monitoring for Spyglass, Trendtrack, Competitors App, and Similarweb.

Use it in Claude and ChatGPT

These are the published Spiderlook steps. Sign-in is OAuth. Do not paste a bearer token.

Claude Desktop

  1. Add a remote MCP server named spiderlook.
  2. Set the URL to https://api.spiderlook.com/mcp.
  3. Or run claude mcp add --transport http spiderlook https://api.spiderlook.com/mcp.
  4. When Claude asks you to sign in, approve access in Spiderlook. Do not paste a bearer token.

claude.ai connector

  1. Open Claude on the web and go to Customize, then Connectors.
  2. Add a custom connector named Spiderlook and paste the MCP endpoint.
  3. The prefilled connector link opens that modal with the name and URL filled in.
  4. Choose Connect. Claude starts OAuth and opens Spiderlook so you can sign in and approve.

ChatGPT

  1. In ChatGPT, add a custom connector or app that accepts a remote MCP server URL.
  2. Name it Spiderlook and set the server URL to https://api.spiderlook.com/mcp.
  3. Create the connector. ChatGPT starts OAuth and opens Spiderlook so you can sign in and approve.
  4. Do not paste a bearer token. Spiderlook does not deep-link ChatGPT, because ChatGPT does not provide a connector install link.

Open the claude.ai connector with Spiderlook prefilled. Setup steps.
