Conductor remote MCP connector

  • Updated

The Conductor remote Model Context Protocol (MCP) connector in Optimizely Opal brings AI search intelligence directly into Opal. Use it to monitor your brand's visibility and citation share across AI search engines like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity. Also use it to identify where competitors are outranking you so Opal can help you act on those gaps.

First, an Opal administrator must Add Conductor Remote MCP to Opal. After adding the MCP server, individual Opal users and agent builders can log in to Conductor to access their information from Opal. Administrators only need to add the Conductor Remote MCP once.
