Using Fyonta's MCP server with Claude

If you're already using Claude for research or outreach drafting, connecting it directly to Fyonta means it can look up real contacts mid-conversation instead of you copy-pasting results back and forth.

What you need first

An API key. Sign up free and subscribe from the dashboard, or use an existing key — the MCP server uses the exact same key as the REST API, so there's nothing separate to provision.

Add the MCP endpoint

Point your MCP client configuration at Fyonta's endpoint with your key as a header:

{
  "fyonta": {
    "url": "https://api.fyonta.com/mcp",
    "headers": { "X-API-Key": "$FYONTA_KEY" }
  }
}

That's the entire setup. No OAuth flow, no separate agent-specific pricing tier.

What Claude can do with it

Seven tools become available: search_leads for the owned database, and six enrichment tools mirroring the REST API — email search, phone search, reverse email lookup, domain search, contact finder, and company finder. Ask something like "find the VP of Sales at Acme Corp" and Claude will call the right tool with the right parameters on its own.

It shares your rate limit

Worth knowing: MCP calls count against the same per-minute limit as your REST API usage, because they go through the same backend. If you're running both a script and an agent off one key, they're sharing one budget, not two.

Full tool reference is on the MCP page.
