Product Researcher MCP Server
An MCP server that gives Claude Code web search and product research capabilities. Never leave your terminal to research a product again.
What It Does
5 tools, one server:
Tool | What It Does |
| Full product brief — features, pricing, tech, API |
| Side-by-side comparison of 2-5 products |
| Focused pricing/plans lookup |
| Find competitors and alternatives |
| Raw web search for anything else |

Quick Setup
1. Install dependencies
cd product-researcher-mcp
pip install -r requirements.txt2. Pick a search provider and get an API key
Provider | Free Tier | Best For | Sign Up |
Tavily | 1,000/month | AI agents (returns summaries) | |
Brave | 2,000/month | Privacy, good free tier | |
Serper | 2,500 total | Google-quality results |
3. Set your environment variables
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env — set SEARCH_PROVIDER and the matching API key4. Add to Claude Code
Add this to your Claude Code MCP config (~/.claude/claude_desktop_config.json or project-level .mcp.json):
{
"mcpServers": {
"product-researcher": {
"command": "python",
"args": ["/full/path/to/product-researcher-mcp/server.py"],
"env": {
"SEARCH_PROVIDER": "tavily",
"TAVILY_API_KEY": "tvly-your-key-here"
}
}
}
}Or if using Brave:
{
"mcpServers": {
"product-researcher": {
"command": "python",
"args": ["/full/path/to/product-researcher-mcp/server.py"],
"env": {
"SEARCH_PROVIDER": "brave",
"BRAVE_API_KEY": "BSA-your-key-here"
}
}
}
}5. Test it
In Claude Code, just ask:
research Kling AIcompare Supabase vs Firebase vs PlanetScalewhat's the pricing for Vercelfind alternatives to Midjourney for AI image generationHow It Works
You ask Claude Code
→ Claude calls research_product tool
→ MCP server builds smart search queries
→ Hits your search API (Tavily/Brave/Serper)
→ Deduplicates & formats results
→ Returns structured markdown brief
→ Claude synthesizes the answer for youThe server is search-API-agnostic. Swap providers any time by changing one env var.

Want to add a new search provider? Add a function following the pattern:
async def _search_newprovider(query: str, max_results: int) -> List[Dict[str, Any]]:
# Hit the API, return list of {"title": ..., "content": ..., "url": ...}
passThen add it to the providers dict in the search() function. Done.
