Add IndustryLens to Cline

Install

Cline → MCP Servers → Configure (or edit cline_mcp_settings.json). Use a remote / streamable-HTTP server.

cline_mcp_settings.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "industrylens": {
      "type": "streamableHttp",
      "url": "https://api.industry-lens.com/mcp/public"
    }
  }
}

Steps

  1. In Cline, open MCP Servers → Configure MCP Servers.
  2. Add the industrylens entry (see the block above).
  3. Save; Cline reconnects and lists the tools.

Verify it worked

Cline’s MCP panel shows industrylens connected; ask "Who competes with apollo.io?".

Try these prompts

  • “Who competes with apollo.io?”
  • “What did Clay recently change in its go-to-market?”
  • “Give me a competitive profile of ramp.com.”
  • “List recent strategic moves for ZoomInfo.”
  • “Find competitors for cognism.com.”

Troubleshooting

Server won’t connect

Ensure type is "streamableHttp" and the URL is exactly https://api.industry-lens.com/mcp/public.

Where is the config?

Use Cline’s "Configure MCP Servers" button — it opens the JSON file for you.

Tools ignored

Ask an explicitly competitive question so Cline reaches for the tools.
