Analyse your SurveyLane results with AI.

01Quick start

Three steps from zero to chatting with your survey data.

02Install

Drop the endpoint into any MCP‑capable client. HTTP transport, Bearer auth, no SDK.

claude mcp add surveylane https://mcp.surveylane.app \
  --transport http \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer slk_..."

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "surveylane": {
      "url": "https://mcp.surveylane.app",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer slk_..."
      }
    }
  }
}

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "surveylane": {
      "url": "https://mcp.surveylane.app",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer slk_..."
      }
    }
  }
}

curl -s -X POST https://mcp.surveylane.app \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer slk_..." \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Accept: application/json, text/event-stream" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/list"}'

03Authentication & privacy

Every request other than GET /health must carry a Bearer token. Tokens are personal, read‑only, and shown once at creation.

04Tools · 22

Everything the AI can call. All read‑only. Each returns plain building blocks (counts, distributions, raw text) — the model does the interpretation.

05Prompts

Server‑hosted prompt templates the AI invokes directly. In Claude Code: /mcp__surveylane__<name>. One click gives you a full guided analysis instead of having to ask the right questions yourself.

06Example prompts

Real questions you can paste into your AI client — from a quick summary to significance tests, key-driver analysis, cohorts, weighting and pre/post comparisons. The model decides which tools to call and chains them together; you stay in plain English.

07From data to a polished report

Ask your AI for a full analysis and it reads the numbers straight from the MCP tools — then a small script turns them into a branded, board-ready PDF. Here’s the workflow and a sample.

08Rate limits

Per‑user, sliding 60‑second window. Hitting the limit returns a clean tool error with a retry_after_seconds hint — not an HTTP 429 — so your AI client can back off without breaking the conversation.
