Great Question
io.github.GreatQuestionPublished by GitHub account GreatQuestionv1.0.0Updated Oct 25, 2026
Run user research from any AI tool. Create studies, recruit participants, query insights.
Overview
Official Great Question MCP server that lets an AI assistant create user research studies, recruit participants and query research insights.
- What you can do
- Create, configure and launch interview studies, surveys and prototype tests from a prompt or conversation. Search the customer CRM, segment by attributes and build participant lists for studies. Set up availability, screening questions and incentive structures. Search past sessions, transcripts, highlights and tags across the research repository. Query existing reports and generate summaries across multiple studies.
- When to use it
- Useful for product, design and research teams already on Great Question who want to run research workflows and pull customer insights without leaving their AI client. It suits discovery work where studies, recruitment and past findings need to be reached quickly.
- Requirements
- A remote hosted endpoint; nothing is installed locally. A Great Question workspace on any plan and an MCP-compatible client that supports remote HTTP servers. OAuth 2.0 sign-in to Great Question on first connection; no API keys or environment variables are declared.
Installation
In SourceWeft
- Open Great Question in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
- Connect the required credentials. They are stored privately and never shown on public pages.
- Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.
Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.
Use with an agent
Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.
Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/io.github.GreatQuestion%2Fmcp/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.Other MCP clients
Add this to your client's mcpServers config. The client completes OAuth sign-in on first connect.

Great Question MCP Server
Run user research from any AI tool. The official Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Great Question — the AI UX research platform for product builders.
Once connected, Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Windsurf, Gemini CLI, and any other MCP-compatible client can create research studies, recruit participants, and query insights directly from your Great Question workspace.
"The Great Question MCP surfaces insight across studies in minutes, not days. It brings real customer patterns into discovery when decisions are happening, so we can act with confidence and build what matters most." — Matt Radel, VP of Design & UX at InvoiceCloud
What it does
This is not a read-only research lookup tool. AI agents connected to this server can actively run research workflows:
- 🎤 Create moderated interview studies from a single prompt
- 📝 Build multi-question surveys without leaving the conversation
- 🧪 Set up prototype tests with screeners, scheduling, and incentives
- 🎯 Search your customer CRM to identify the right participants for each study
- 🔍 Query your research repository for insights, summaries, and reports across past sessions, transcripts, and tags
Who it's for
- Product managers bringing the customer voice into PRDs and discovery work
- UX researchers scaling research programs without scaling hands-on coordination
- Designers referencing past usability findings while building new flows
- Research ops teams streamlining workflows across studies and repositories
- Founders doing product discovery without a dedicated research function
Setup
Prerequisites
- A Great Question workspace (any plan)
- An MCP-compatible client (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, ChatGPT, Gemini CLI, or any other)
Installation
The Great Question MCP is hosted — there is nothing to install locally. You add it to your MCP client by pointing it at our endpoint:
Claude Code
Claude Desktop
Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, then add:
Restart Claude Desktop. You'll be prompted to authorize via OAuth on first use.
Cursor
Cursor → Settings → MCP → Add new MCP server:
Windsurf
Windsurf Settings → Cascade → MCP Servers → Add custom server with URL https://greatquestion.co/api/mcp/v1. Windsurf supports OAuth automatically.
ChatGPT
In ChatGPT, go to Settings → Connectors → Add connector. Use the URL https://greatquestion.co/api/mcp/v1. You'll be prompted to sign in via OAuth.
Gemini CLI
Other MCP clients
Any MCP client that supports remote (HTTP) servers can connect using the URL https://greatquestion.co/api/mcp/v1. Authentication is OAuth 2.0.
Authentication & security
- OAuth 2.0 — credentials are never exposed to the AI client. You sign in to Great Question on first connection; the AI agent receives a scoped access token.
- Role-based permissions — every action respects the role you have in your Great Question workspace. If you can't create studies in the UI, you can't create them via the MCP either.
- SOC 2 Type II compliant — Great Question maintains an active SOC 2 Type II attestation; the MCP inherits the same controls as the rest of the platform.
- Workspace isolation — your data never crosses workspace boundaries.
Example prompts
Here are some prompts that work well with the Great Question MCP. They're meant as a starting point — the server exposes the full set of research workflows, so phrasing is flexible.
- "Create a moderated interview study about checkout abandonment, 6 participants from our enterprise customers, 30 minutes, $100 incentive."
- "Find the 5 most-mentioned pain points across our usability tests from the last 90 days."
- "Recruit 10 PMs from our CRM who fit our ICP for a survey on AI tool adoption."
- "Summarize what we've heard from customers about our pricing in the last quarter."
- "Pull every quote from our research repository where someone mentions [feature name]."
Tools exposed
The server exposes the following toolsets. Tool names and exact arguments are discovered automatically by your MCP client — this list is for orientation.
- Studies — list, create, configure, and launch interview studies, surveys, and prototype tests
- Participants — search your customer CRM, segment by attributes, generate participant lists for studies
- Scheduling & screeners — configure availability, screening questions, and incentive structures
- Repository search — full-text and semantic search across past sessions, transcripts, highlights, and tags
- Insights & reports — query existing reports and generate summaries across multiple studies
