CONNECT
Wire it into the AI you already use.
Connecting takes one paste, and it’s the same move on every AI: add a custom connector, paste your personal link, Authentication None. Pick your AI below for where that setting lives and any plan requirement.
Your personal link is in your welcome email and looks like this:
https://api.exascale.build/mcp/your-code
The code in it is what unlocks your unlimited access, so keep it private. Don’t have one yet? Get your key — $49/mo, 7-day full refund. Just want to see it work first? Try the live demo — no setup, right on the homepage.
ChatGPT Plus · Pro · Business · Enterprise
Set up on chatgpt.com on a computer — once added there, it’s available in the ChatGPT phone app too (confirmed on-device).
- On chatgpt.com: Settings → find and turn on Developer mode. OpenAI moves this switch around — it’s currently under Security and login; on some accounts it’s under Apps → Advanced settings.
- Settings → Apps (some accounts say Plugins) → the + / Create button → name it
exascale, paste your personal link as the MCP server URL, Authentication: None → Create. ChatGPT lists our tools — that means you’re connected. - In a new chat: click the + next to the message box → enable exascale. (Developer-mode connectors are chosen per chat — if ChatGPT isn’t using the tools, this step is the one that was missed.)
Steps checked against OpenAI’s docs 10 Jul 2026; phone availability confirmed on-device 13 Jul 2026.
Claude Every plan — including Free
Add it once on claude.ai — it then shows up in the Claude apps on your phone automatically (confirmed on-device).
- Open claude.ai/settings/connectors → Add custom connector.
- Paste your personal link → Add. Authentication: None — nothing else to fill in.
- In any chat, the tools are under the + menu → Connectors. On your phone: log out and back in if it doesn’t appear right away.

Grok Custom connectors — paid tier reported
Setup at grok.com/connectors; connectors work on Grok web, iOS, and Android. xAI’s docs don’t state the plan requirement — third-party reporting says paid SuperGrok.
- Go to grok.com/connectors → New Connector → Custom.
- Paste your personal link as the MCP server URL — Authentication: None.

Perplexity Pro · Max · Enterprise
Custom connectors need a paid Perplexity plan.
- Account Settings → Connectors → + Custom connector → Remote.
- Name it

Gemini Honest answer: limited
The regular Gemini app cannot add custom connectors — that’s gated to the Google AI Ultra tier via Spark. Your options:
- Google AI Ultra: gemini.google.com → Settings & help → Connected Apps → Custom apps for Spark → Add a custom app → paste your personal link. Once added on web, it works in the Gemini phone app too.
- Gemini CLI (terminal): see the Terminal agents card.
- No Ultra? See the data in the live demo, or connect a different AI above.

Terminal agents One line each
Terminal agents take your key as a header. Swap exa_your-code for the key in your welcome email:
# Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http exascale https://api.exascale.build/mcp \
--header "Authorization: Bearer exa_your-code"
# Codex CLI
codex mcp add exascale --url https://api.exascale.build/mcp \
--header "Authorization: Bearer exa_your-code"
# Gemini CLI — add to ~/.gemini/settings.json under mcpServers:
# "exascale": { "httpUrl": "https://api.exascale.build/mcp",
# "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer exa_your-code" } }
Or just paste your personal link (key in the URL) if the agent prefers a bare URL. Commands checked 10 Jul 2026.

What your AI gets
- Cited, verifiable answers — every value carries its source,
as_of, and a handle that resolves to the raw cell with a matching SHA-256. - Agent-first — discover → describe → query → verify; the tools tell your AI exactly how to call them.
- Live now — US power: capacity (EIA-860M), generation (EIA-923), demand (EIA-930, by balancing authority and national/region), retail sales (EIA-861), capacity factor, ERCOT day-ahead prices, and the interconnection queue for all 7 ISOs. Plus AI infra: data-center & semiconductor construction (Census C30), employment — the data-center & semiconductor industries plus total, construction, retail, accommodation & food-service jobs for every US county (BLS QCEW), integrated-circuit (HS-8542) chip imports, chip-making-equipment (HS-8486) imports by country of origin (Census International Trade), and semiconductor production & capacity utilization (Fed G.17). Plus robotics: monthly industrial-robot imports in dollars and robot counts by country of origin (Census HS-10), and robotics adoption — the share of US factories using robots, workers exposed, and robotics capex by state and industry (Census Industrial Robotic Equipment). Plus space: the FCC satellite licensing docket — every space-station filing back to the 1960s, applicant, status, and lifecycle dates (FCC IBFS daily dump).
