Claude Connector
Connect Anakin to Claude (claude.ai, Claude Desktop, or the Anthropic API) as a remote MCP connector over Streamable HTTP with OAuth 2.1 — scrape, search, map, crawl, run deep research, extract structured data via Wire, monitor websites, compare AI engine answers, and run AI browser tasks, with no API-key pasting.
The Anakin connector gives Claude live web-data tools over remote MCP. Connect by URL and authorize with OAuth 2.1 — you never paste an API key. Anakin mints a dedicated, revocable key scoped to your account.
Server URL:
https://mcp.anakin.io/mcp· Transport: Streamable HTTP · Auth: OAuth 2.1 (Dynamic Client Registration).
Requirements
- An Anakin account with available credits — get one free at the Dashboard (300 credits, no card required). Tool calls consume credits.
- Claude.ai (Connectors), Claude Desktop (custom connector), or the Anthropic API MCP connector.
Connect

https://mcp.anakin.io/mcp. - Claude opens an Anakin sign-in page. Log in (Google or email/password).

The connector exposes 21 tools across the Anakin product surface. Read tools are auto-permitted; write tools (marked below) are annotated as state-changing, and your MCP client asks for your confirmation before each call. The connector never executes payments or transfers funds — such actions are refused.
