For AI assistants · MCP server

Real Alpha's MCP server gives Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and any other assistant the moments we cut from long interviews with the people building AI: 2558 of them, from 445 episodes of 72 shows. Each comes with who said it, the show, the date, their words and the page to cite, so your assistant can quote the source instead of guessing. Free, with no account and no key.

https://realalpha.app/mcp

Add it to your assistant

Claude

1. In Claude on the web or the desktop app, open Customize, then Connectors, and choose + Add, then Add custom connector.
2. Name it Real Alpha, paste the address and choose Continue twice. Under Authentication pick No sign in, then Add.
3. In a chat, choose + at the lower left, then Connectors, and turn Real Alpha on.

Free plans can add one custom connector. On Team and Enterprise an owner adds it first, then each member chooses Connect.

Claude Code

1. Run this in a terminal:

Command

claude mcp add --transport http real-alpha https://realalpha.app/mcp

ChatGPT

1. In ChatGPT on the web, open Plugins, choose +, then Add custom MCP server.
2. Name it Real Alpha, paste the address as the Server URL and pick No authentication. Confirm the warning and choose Create as a plugin.
3. Open it in your personal plugins and choose + to install it. In a chat, type @ and pick Real Alpha.

On a workspace, an admin may need to allow plugins first.

Cursor

Add to Cursor

1. Or add it to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

mcp.json

{ "mcpServers": { "real-alpha": { "url": "https://realalpha.app/mcp" } } }

VS Code

Add to VS Code

1. Or run MCP: Add Server from the Command Palette, or add it to .vscode/mcp.json:

mcp.json

{ "servers": { "real-alpha": { "type": "http", "url": "https://realalpha.app/mcp" } } }

Anything else

1. Windsurf, Zed, Cline, Goose and most other clients take the address as it is, as a remote server over Streamable HTTP.
2. A client that only runs local servers can reach it through mcp-remote:

Config

{ "mcpServers": { "real-alpha": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://realalpha.app/mcp"] } } }

What it can do

Six tools, all of them read-only. Ask in your own words: the assistant picks the tool.

search_moments

Searches every moment by what was said, with filters for who’s talking, a company, a show or a date.

“What have the people building AI said about the AI bubble?”

what_did_they_say

Everything one person said in the interviews we cut, or only what they said on a topic, with who they are.

“What has Jensen Huang said about AI demand?”

answers_to

How builders answer a big question about AI, grouped by which way they answer, with what each one says.

“Will AI replace software engineers? What do the people building it say?”

get_moment

One moment in full: the quote, the takeaways, its topics, the questions it answers and the episode’s other best minutes.

“Tell me more about that Satya Nadella moment.”

transcript_excerpt

About a minute of an episode’s transcript from any second, to check the exact words around a quote.

“What exactly did he say around 31:50?”

latest_moments

The newest best minutes, from every show or one.

“What did AI leaders say on podcasts this week?”

How it works

Every answer is a short excerpt and a link: a quote, a summary, or a minute of transcript at most. The whole conversation is on each moment's page on realalpha.app, which plays the episode from that minute in YouTube's player. The videos and what's said in them belong to their shows, so when your assistant uses a moment, it names the speaker, the show and the date and links the page.

It only reads. It doesn't ask who you are and doesn't keep what you ask. Each address can send 120requests a minute. Using it means agreeing to our terms, as using the site does.
