How it works

1

Get a free API key

Sign up, verify your email, then create an API key. No setup wizard and no credit card to start.

2

Connect your AI tool

Paste one config block into Claude Desktop, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client. The VETR tools appear instantly.

3

Query your data

Ask "What’s the VETR score for solicitation W15P7T-25-R-0001?" and get a structured answer from your live proposals.

MCP quickstart

VETR exposes 20 tools via the Model Context Protocol. Paste the config for your client:

Claude Desktop

Edit ~/.config/claude/claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "vetr": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://vetrproposal.com/mcp/vetr", "--header", "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"]
    }
  }
}

Cursor

Create .cursor/mcp.json in your project root:

// .cursor/mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "vetr": {
      "url": "https://vetrproposal.com/mcp/vetr",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" }
    }
  }
}

Replace YOUR_API_KEY with the token from your developer dashboard. Other MCP clients (Windsurf, Cline, etc.) use the same HTTP transport URL.
