Verified connector
Listed by Anthropic as a partner connector in its Connectors Directory.
Connection checked by Agentman on .
Anthropic states this reflects the level of review a connector received, not a security audit.

Ramp Data Tools & Capabilities (9)
List Categories List all available Ramp Rate software categories, call this first to discover valid category names. Returns a list of category objects each with a 'software_category' field (e.g. 'CRM', 'Observability', 'Communication').
Get Category Summary Get adoption stats for a single software category including adoption rate, YoY/MoM change, growth rank, vendor count, and FTE segment breakdown. Example: {"category": "CRM"}. Call ramp_rate_list_categories first to discover valid category names.
Get Category Vendors Get ranked vendor leaderboard within a category. Returns per-vendor adoption rates, spend share, growth metrics, and competitive rankings. Note: competitor_switch_rate is the share of within-category switchers who chose this vendor (a win rate among switchers), NOT a retention or churn rate. Example: {"category": "CRM", "limit": 10}. Call ramp_rate_list_categories first to discover valid category names.
Resolve Vendor Resolve a vendor name to its canonical slug and list its software categories. Pass a human-readable vendor name and get back the vendor_slug needed by other tools. Example: {"vendor_name": "Slack"} returns {"vendor_slug": "slack-technologies", "software_categories": ["Communication"]}.
Get Vendor Profile Get a vendor's Ramp Rate profile across all categories it belongs to. Accepts a canonical vendor slug and can recover from common vendor names, domains, Slack links, Markdown links, and public Ramp vendor URLs. Example: {"vendor_slug": "slack-technologies"}.
Compare Vendors Compare adoption metrics across 2-10 vendors side by side. Requires vendor_slugs (call ramp_rate_resolve_vendor first to get slugs from names). Example: {"vendor_slugs": ["slack-technologies", "salesforce"]}.
Get Ai Adoption Get AI adoption snapshot with vendor breakdown. Returns a list of monthly records, each containing the overall AI adoption share and per-vendor adoption shares (e.g. OpenAI, Google, Anthropic). Per-vendor shares can overlap because customers may use multiple AI vendors. Use `months` to request up to 120 months of history (default 1); available history begins around January 2023, so fewer months may be returned.
Get Ai Adoption By Sector Get AI adoption broken down by industry sector. Returns a list of monthly records with per-sector AI adoption shares (e.g. Technology, Healthcare, Finance). Use `months` to request up to 120 months of history (default 1).
Get Ai Adoption By Size Get AI adoption broken down by company size. Returns a list of monthly records with per-size-segment AI adoption shares. Use `months` to request up to 120 months of history (default 1).

Frequently asked questions
Can the Ramp Data MCP server see my company's Ramp transactions?
No. None of the nine tools takes an account, card, user or transaction identifier. Their inputs are software category names, vendor names or slugs, and a months count. Ramp ships a separate account-scoped server, Ramp MCP, at a different endpoint and behind OAuth. Ramp Data reads published benchmark datasets only, so connecting it exposes nothing about your own spending.
What is the difference between Ramp Data MCP and Ramp MCP?
They are two different servers with two different directory listings. Ramp MCP connects an assistant to your own Ramp account through OAuth to query transactions and take actions. Ramp Data MCP serves Ramp Rate and AI Index benchmark datasets and holds no account context at all. Ramp's own documentation lists three MCP servers and describes them as scoped to different audiences.
Why does the Ramp Data endpoint contain an /anthropic/ path segment?
Because it is a route Ramp provisioned for this distribution channel. Ramp's documentation gives the general server URL as mcp.ramp.com/ramp-data/mcp and says access requires a provisioned API key sent as a bearer token. The directory's listed URL adds /anthropic/ and answered our anonymous handshake on 2026-08-17, so this route carries the provisioning rather than the reader.
Do you need a Ramp account to use the Ramp Data MCP server?
Not for the connector listed in Anthropic's directory. Our anonymous handshake against the listed endpoint returned all nine tool schemas with no credential attached on 2026-08-17. Ramp's docs do require a provisioned key for the general Ramp Data endpoint and for the underlying REST API, which you request through the Ramp Data Partner Program.
Where does Ramp Rate benchmark data come from?
From spending Ramp already observes on its own platform. Ramp describes the vendor directory as powered by aggregated, anonymized data from its corporate card and bill pay platform, covering billions of dollars of spend. Ramp Rate measures over a trailing twelve-month window anchored to the latest complete month, and its metric definitions are published on Ramp's developer documentation.
Are the vendor benchmarks named companies or anonymised ones?
Sellers are named; buyers are not. Ramp Rate publishes adoption, growth and switching figures for named software vendors such as Slack or Datadog, and the same profiles are already public on Ramp's vendor directory. The businesses whose purchases produce those figures are aggregated and, in Ramp's word, anonymized. So the connector reveals nothing about any individual buyer.
How much history can the AI Index tools return?
Up to 120 months per call, though far less exists. All three AI Index tools accept a months parameter between 1 and 120 with a default of 1, and their own descriptions state that available history begins around January 2023. Requests reaching further back return fewer records, and a request with no matching data returns an empty result rather than an error.
