Crossbeam MCP Server
Official Crossbeam MCP server for querying B2B partner ecosystem data, account overlaps, partner signals, and Ecosystem-Led Growth content.
The Crossbeam MCP server is an official, provider-hosted remote server that exposes Crossbeam's B2B partnerships platform to AI agents through the Model Context Protocol. It lets assistants pull ecosystem data on demand: which partners overlap with which accounts, where new partnership opportunities exist, how partners are performing, and what deal signals are firing across the partner graph. The server also indexes Crossbeam's help center, Insider blog, and the Ecosystem-Led Growth book so agents can answer questions about Crossbeam itself and partner-led sales strategy.
Crossbeam exposes roughly a dozen tools covering partner discovery (find_partners, get_partner_suggestions), population management (get_own_populations, get_partner_populations), account intelligence (get_account_overlap_info, get_own_account_info), performance reporting (get_partner_leaderboard, get_partner_tags), signal events (get_record_signals), and three content search tools across Crossbeam's owned media. Authentication uses an OAuth flow tied to a user's Crossbeam login, so no API keys need to be provisioned by hand.
The server is currently in Limited Availability and is restricted to Crossbeam Supernode and Enterprise customers whose company domain has been approved by Crossbeam. It works natively with Claude.ai and ChatGPT through their built-in connector menus and can be wired into any MCP-capable client (Cursor, n8n, LibreChat, Microsoft Copilot, Glean) by adding the remote server URL.
