Pounce for ClaudeUse Pounce inside Claude
Pounce for Claude adds South Africa’s businesses, buying signals, open tenders and your own leads to Claude as a custom connector, so you can ask for them in plain words.
Set it up
Custom connectors work on Claude’s Free (one connector), Pro, Max, Team and Enterprise plans; on Team and Enterprise an owner adds the connector first.
Make the key in Pounce: Settings, API keys (Growth and Agency plans). Treat it like a password.
In Claude, open Customize, then Connectors, choose Add and then Add custom connector.
Name it Pounce and paste your private connector address:
https://app.pounce.co.za/mcp/YOUR_KEYFor sign-in choose No sign in (the key is in the address). Or use the plain address with a request header: Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY.
Choose Add, then switch Pounce on in a chat’s tools menu.
Ask Claude: “Use Pounce to show my plan and usage.” It should answer with your plan.
Then ask for what you need
- “Find steel fabricators in Ekurhuleni with a website”
- “Open the full record for the third one”
- “Which construction companies in KwaZulu-Natal won contracts this month?”
- “Show my ten best leads and why each fits”
- “Which cleaning tenders close this week in Gauteng?”
- “Here are my 20 customers: which of them had news lately?”
- “Draft an email to that contractor about our plant hire”
- “How many export rows have I used this month?”
The MCP server and the API come with the Growth and Agency plans. Each business returned with its contacts uses one export row, as a CSV row does.
