DDMarketer MCP Server

Validated SaaS opportunities, mined from real user complaints, inside your coding agent.

Your agent can already build almost anything. The hard part is knowing what is worth building. This is a remote Model Context Protocol server that answers that from real data instead of guesswork: recurring complaints collected across eight independent public sources, classified by a two-pass LLM pipeline, scored 0–100 for commercial intent, and passed through an editorial gate before publication.

No install. No API key required. Free tier is genuinely free.

Tools

Tool	What it does	Needs a key
search_gaps	Find validated gaps by keyword, optionally filtered by category	no
get_top_gaps	This week's highest commercial-intent opportunities	no
validate_idea	Score an idea you already have against the complaint corpus	no
get_dossier	Open one gap in full: source complaints, MVP scope, pricing, competitors, risks, playbook	yes

Try it

Once connected, ask your agent:

• "What SaaS gaps are trending this week?"
• "Is there real demand for a tool that reconciles Shopify payouts with accounting?"
• "Find validated complaints about developer onboarding."

Example response from get_top_gaps:

1. Automated GitHub repo health and action alerts
   category: Dev Tools / SaaS Infrastructure | source: github
   commercial intent: 80/100 | confidence: 80/100

2. Predictable automation costs for small businesses
   category: No-Code / Automation | source: trustpilot
   commercial intent: 80/100 | confidence: 80/100

The validator says no

validate_idea is built to be falsifiable. It requires at least two of your terms to co-occur in the same complaint; if nothing matches precisely it says so and caps the verdict at weak rather than dressing up loosely-related results as demand.

"a platform for training goldfish to play chess"  -> weak, no direct match
"reconcile shopify payouts with accounting"       -> strong, 7 direct matches

Free vs. keyed

Without a key you get the same depth already published free on Top 10 and State of SaaS Gaps: the gap, its category and source, and its commercial-intent and confidence scores.

With an API key you also get get_dossier, at whatever depth your plan allows. Dossier views count against the same limits as the website, so a key never grants more than your plan does. Create one in Settings.
