New Hosted MCP Server for Claude, Cursor and AI Agents
Say Hello to the New Hosted Gender-API MCP Server
We are excited to launch the new hosted Gender-API MCP Server — a simple way to connect Claude, Cursor, and other MCP-compatible AI tools directly to live Gender-API data. If you have been looking for a hosted MCP server for gender detection, name enrichment, or country-of-origin lookups, this release was built for you.
Instead of writing custom wrappers or manually teaching your assistant how to call REST endpoints, you can now point your MCP-compatible client to our hosted endpoint and start using structured Gender-API tools right away. Your existing API token still works, your existing credits still apply, and the setup is intentionally lightweight.
What is included?
- Hosted MCP endpoint: Use a production-ready remote MCP URL instead of running your own protocol bridge from scratch.
- Live Gender-API tools: Query first names, full names, email-derived names, country of origin, and account statistics through a standard MCP tool interface.
- Simple authentication: Authenticate with the same bearer token you already use for the Gender-API V2 endpoints.
- AI-tool friendly setup: Perfect for Claude, Cursor, internal copilots, research assistants, enrichment agents, and workflow tools that support hosted MCP.
Real-world examples
A hosted MCP server is especially useful when you want your AI tools to work with real customer data instead of making things up. Here are a few examples we think customers will love:
- A sales copilot can enrich lead lists with likely gender and country-of-origin context before outreach.
- A support assistant can inspect email addresses, infer likely first names, and help your team draft more natural replies.
- A spreadsheet or CSV cleanup agent can process contact lists with structured Gender-API tool calls instead of ad-hoc prompt instructions.
- An internal analytics assistant can check remaining credits with `get_statistics` before a larger enrichment workflow starts.
Why this matters for MCP, Claude, and Cursor users
Many teams are now searching for terms like “hosted MCP server”, “MCP server for Claude”, “Cursor MCP integration”, or “remote MCP API tools”. With this release, Gender-API becomes a ready-to-use answer for exactly those workflows. If your AI tool supports Streamable HTTP MCP, you can plug into live name intelligence without building a custom integration layer yourself.
Getting started is easy
Add your bearer token, connect your MCP client, and you are ready to explore the available tools.
Ready to try it?
If you do not have an account yet, this is a great time to create one and start experimenting. If you already have a token, head straight to the MCP integration page and copy the setup examples for your favorite client.
We hope the new hosted MCP server makes it easier and more enjoyable to bring Gender-API into your AI workflows. Give it a try, connect it to your favorite MCP-compatible tool, and see how much smoother live enrichment can feel.
