Perplexity

Build and update user cohorts inside Claude Desktop

The `upload_cohort` tool lets your agent sync user ID lists straight to Amplitude to build targeted segments. You don't have to export CSVs or click through the Amplitude UI to get your cohorts in place. Just tell your desktop client which users to group. To keep your taxonomy clean while doing this, the server lets you check existing groups with `list_cohorts`. This keeps your segment names aligned across your marketing campaigns.

Inspect real-time user profiles during support triage

The `get_user_profile` tool pulls live properties and behavioral history for any user ID directly into your chat. Your agent reads this data to diagnose why a specific account is hitting errors or failing to convert. If you need to fix incorrect user metadata on the fly, you can run `identify_user` to update their properties immediately. This saves you from writing custom script workarounds just to patch a database mismatch.

Ship tracking updates using this marketing MCP Server

The `create_release` tool marks code deployments directly on your charts so you can see exactly when metrics shift. This MCP Server lets your agent log these milestones the second you finish a deployment. You can also run `create_annotation` to pin critical incident dates or marketing campaigns to your timeline. Your team won't have to guess why traffic spiked on a random Tuesday.
