Read-only SPAC data: universe, league tables, lockups and earnouts
Overview
SPACInsider maintains data on special purpose acquisition companies. The connector queries it read-only: the current SPAC universe, point-in-time historical snapshots, IPO counts, underwriter league tables, participant relationships, corporate actions, and lockup and earnout terms. Point-in-time snapshots are the part worth noting, since they allow a question to be asked as of a past date rather than against a revised present-day view. Authorization runs through OAuth at spacinsider.com, twenty-nine tools are claimed, and the record is cross-filed under financial services.

OAuth sits in front of the server, so an unauthenticated tools/list gets a 401 and the twenty-nine tools remain a published number.
Availability
SPACInsider is listed in the Claude connectors directory only. SPACInsider has no app under the same domain in the ChatGPT directory; 392 of the 3,150 products here are on both marketplaces, and this is not one of them.
The MCP server behind a Claude connector is usually the same server a ChatGPT app would need, so the absence is a distribution decision rather than a technical one.
Claude listing
SPACInsider publishes 29 tools to Claude, deeper than 80.3% of the 1,253 Claude-listed connectors.
The median Claude-listed connector filed under Data & Analytics publishes 12, so this one runs 17 tools above its bucket's median and ranks 28th of 198 by tool count.
It falls in the 21-50 tools band, which holds 20% of the Claude directory.
SPACInsider publishes a remote MCP endpoint. Claude connects to it over HTTP; there is nothing to install locally.
Every connector in the Claude directory is remote, all 1,253 of them, so transport is not a differentiator there.
https://api.spacinsider.com/v2/mcp SPACInsider is community-listed in the Claude directory, the tier 770 of 1,253 connectors sit in (61.5%). It is the default for a self-published server, and says nothing either way about quality.
In the publisher's words
SPACInsider provides read-only access to comprehensive SPAC market data through a hosted MCP server. Ask questions about the SPAC universe, point-in-time historical snapshots, IPO counts, underwriter league tables, participant relationships, corporate actions, and lockup/earnout terms. The connector uses OAuth via spacinsider.com. Data is retrieved through structured MCP tools.

This is an independent catalogue entry compiled by Node8 from SPACInsider's public marketplace listing as it stood in August 2026. Listing facts come from the marketplaces; the comparisons against the rest of the directory and any live-endpoint measurements are Node8's. Node8 is not affiliated with SPACInsider, and inclusion here is not an endorsement.
Node8 builds MCP servers end to end: deciding which tools are worth exposing, the authentication and permission model, the review submissions, and the onboarding that gets them used. One server serves ChatGPT, Claude, and Microsoft Copilot.
