Connect Similarweb without code
Similarweb's docs confirm it works in Claude. You don't need a terminal or a config file. Check Similarweb's docs first: some vendors give you a personal URL or an API key to use in place of the plain endpoint.
Claude (web and desktop app)
If Similarweb shows up when you browse connectors in Claude, connect it from there instead. That skips steps 2 to 4.
- In Claude, open Customize → Connectors.
- Click + Add, then Add custom connector.
- Name it “Similarweb”, paste the server URL
https://mcp.similarweb.com, and click Continue. - Review the sign-in settings Claude detected and click Add.
- Click Connect and sign in to Similarweb. Then ask Claude something like “What can the Similarweb connector do?”
On Team and Enterprise plans, an Owner adds the connector first under Organization settings → Connectors → Add → Custom → Web. Each person then connects it from Customize → Connectors. Free plans can add one custom connector.

}
}
}
- Add the endpoint to your client config (above), or as a custom connector in Claude.
