Perplexity

Run funnels inside Claude Desktop

The `get_funnel` tool calculates conversion rates across specific event paths right in your chat window. You hand your AI client a list of comma-separated event names and a date range in YYYYMMDD format to start the query. Claude then returns the exact drop-off metrics between each step. If you need to dig into specific behaviors driving those numbers, the `event_segmentation` tool pulls the raw counts for any individual event name over that same period.

Investigate individual user journeys

The `search_users` tool accepts an email, user ID, or device ID to locate a specific customer account in your workspace. This MCP Server makes it trivial to find the exact profile you need before diving into their history. Once you have the right ID, feed it into the `get_user_activity` tool to pull their entire event stream. You see exactly what they clicked, when they logged in, and where they got stuck, all rendered right in your conversation.

Track growth metrics instantly

Pulling daily, weekly, or monthly active user counts happens through the `active_users` tool by passing simple start and end dates. Your agent formats the raw DAU/WAU/MAU numbers into a readable summary without making you log into a separate dashboard. Tying those usage metrics to dollars requires the `revenue_analysis` tool. It outputs daily revenue figures for your specified window, letting you correlate feature launches with actual financial impact.

Common questions about Amplitude MCP in Claude Desktop

Add the Vinkius endpoint URL directly in your browser via Settings, Integrations, and Add custom connector. Desktop app users can edit their config file to include the MCP Server details. Both methods work perfectly.

The AI reads raw JSON responses from the endpoints. It then formats that data into markdown tables or text summaries depending on your prompt.

Large cohorts take time to generate on the backend. The server uses polling to check status, so you might need to ask your client to wait and try the request again if it times out initially.

Most tools expect YYYYMMDD format for start and end parameters. Exporting raw events requires an hourly timestamp formatted as YYYYMMDDTHH.

Vinkius routes your requests through a V8 Isolate Sandbox that destroys itself after execution. Your raw event streams, user IDs, and email strings pass directly to the target API without being logged on our infrastructure.
