Night Watcher for Claude

Ask Claude what to build, and get an answer backed by data.

Connect Night Watcher to Claude and it can look up search demand, click prices, how winnable Google's first page is, and which AI companies are growing, right inside your conversation. Some tools work without an account; a free account adds 50 live lookups a month.

What you can ask

Find something to build

Claude pulls searches with rising demand, real click prices and a first page a small product can win, then turns the best into ideas with an MVP and a first channel.

"Find me an app idea I could build in a few weekends."

Check an idea before you code

Describe the idea and Claude checks how many people search for it, whether that is growing, what advertisers pay, how winnable the first page is and who already has the traffic.

"Is an AI tool that checks whether a photo is AI-generated worth building?"

Track the AI market

See which of 24 AI categories are growing, how they changed week by week, the breakout and newly launched AI companies, and how any tracked company is doing.

How to connect

Claude on the web, desktop and mobile

  1. Open the Add connector dialog with Night Watcher filled in, and click Continue.
  2. Under Authentication choose Sign in when needed. Claude may suggest No sign-in because some tools are public; that setting never offers the Connect button.
  3. Under OAuth client choose Register automatically, then click Add.
  4. Ask a question. The public tools answer straight away.
  5. When Claude needs live data it shows a Connect button. Sign in or create a free Night Watcher account, then allow access.

Or add it by hand: Customize, then Connectors, then Add custom connector, with the URL https://nightwatcherai.com/mcp.

Claude Code

Add the connector from your terminal:

claude mcp add --transport http nightwatcher https://nightwatcherai.com/mcp

Then run /mcp in Claude Code to sign in when you want live data. A Night Watcher plugin with find-an-idea and validate-an-idea skills is coming to the Claude plugin directory.

Figures are estimates with their dates: search volumes and click prices for Google searches, and third-party traffic estimates and modeled revenue for companies. They are research inputs, not company-reported financials or investment advice. Adult topics are hidden by default; an account owner can change that in Account settings.

Privacy

Night Watcher receives the requests Claude makes to its tools, such as a search phrase, an idea description or a company domain. It does not receive your conversation, your other messages, Claude's memory or your files. For a signed-in account it keeps monthly counts of which tools were used, to run the free allowance, and records usage events (tool name, plan and outcome, never your questions or inputs) in its product analytics. The privacy policy has the details.

Help

  • No Connect button? Ask for something live, such as checking an idea; public tools never ask you to sign in.
  • Sign-in loops or fails: disconnect the connector in Claude, add it again, and confirm your Night Watcher email address.
  • Used your 50 lookups: they reset on the 1st of the month at 00:00 UTC. Ask Claude "what's left on my Night Watcher account?" to check. One detailed question often uses several lookups.
