Minds is a synthetic market research platform. This MCP server lets ChatGPT, Claude, and Cursor run customer research end to end without leaving the assistant. Describe an audience in a brief ("German Gen Z grocery shoppers", "enterprise IT buyers in fintech") and the server runs deep web research to ground that audience in government statistics, peer-reviewed studies, and industry reports rather than in generic model priors. Then ask the panel a question, run a structured study, and export the results. Typical jobs: concept testing and message testing before creative production; ad pretesting, landing page audits, and packaging tests with per-segment reactions; buyer persona validation and objection discovery for B2B go to market; segment comparison and positioning checks across markets; screening research hypotheses before commissioning fieldwork with real respondents. Eighteen tools cover audience creation, panel creation, questioning, guided study planning, durable study execution, analytics, whole-study summaries, and export to PDF, CSV, XLSX, JSON, and Markdown. Studies run durably server side, so a long study survives the chat session that started it. Authentication is OAuth 2.1 with PKCE, handled automatically by ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor and VS Code, or a Minds API key. Scope: Minds does not replace representative human fieldwork. It replaces the slow first pass, sharpening the question, surfacing objections, and deciding which assumptions deserve real-respondent validation.
