to Vercel AI SDK
Learn how to connect Hotjar to Vercel AI SDK and start using 15 AI agent tools in minutes. Fully managed, enterprise secure, and ready to use without writing a single line of code.
What is the Hotjar MCP Server?
Connect your Hotjar account to any AI agent and access user experience analytics through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Survey Management — List all surveys, inspect questions and settings, retrieve individual responses, and review aggregate statistics (completion rate, NPS score, trends)
- Feedback Widgets — Browse incoming feedback widgets, inspect rating breakdowns, and review individual user submissions with screenshots
- Heatmaps — List all heatmap snapshots and inspect click, scroll, and move data for specific pages
- Session Recordings — Browse session recordings with duration and page count, and inspect metadata and events for individual sessions
- Conversion Funnels — List all funnels with step-by-step drop-off data for conversion optimization
- User Lookup — Retrieve session history and behavior data for a specific user ID
- Site Management — List all tracked sites configured in your Hotjar account
How it works
1. Subscribe to this server
2. Enter your Hotjar Client Secret from the API settings
3. Start analyzing user behavior from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- UX Researchers — review survey responses, analyze heatmap patterns, and watch session recordings to understand user behavior
- Product Managers — track conversion funnels, identify drop-off points, and monitor NPS scores
- Growth Teams — analyze feedback trends, optimize page engagement, and identify usability issues through AI

Frequently asked questions
Can I view survey responses and NPS scores?
Yes. Use list_surveys to see all surveys with response counts and status. Use get_survey_stats for aggregate metrics including completion rate, NPS score, and response trends. Use list_survey_responses to read individual user responses. Use get_survey for the full question list and settings.
Can I analyze heatmap data for specific pages?
Yes. Use list_heatmaps to browse all heatmap snapshots, then get_heatmap with a specific Heatmap ID to retrieve click, scroll, and move interaction data along with the page URL. This reveals where users focus attention and which elements they interact with most.
Can I track conversion funnel drop-offs?
Yes. The list_funnels tool retrieves all configured conversion funnels with step-by-step drop-off data. Each funnel shows the number of users entering each step and the percentage that continue to the next, helping you identify exactly where users abandon the flow.
How does the Vercel AI SDK connect to MCP servers?
Import createMCPClient from @ai-sdk/mcp and pass the server URL. The SDK discovers all tools and provides typed TypeScript interfaces for each one.
Can I use MCP tools in Edge Functions?
Yes. The AI SDK is fully edge-compatible. MCP connections work on Vercel Edge Functions, Cloudflare Workers, and similar runtimes.
Does it support streaming tool results?
Yes. The SDK provides streaming primitives like useChat and streamText that handle tool calls and display results progressively in the UI.
