Grok reaches Crustdata through the same MCP server as every other client. Crustdata is not in the Grok connector catalog, so you add it as a custom connector. The endpoint is the same everywhere:
  • One URL to add. No SDK, no local process, no config file.
  • Browser sign-in. No API key to paste into a chat.
  • Grok Bot too. Bots use the connectors on your account, so this covers them as well.

Before you start

  • A Crustdata account. Sign in or create one.
  • Allow popups for grok.com. The sign-in opens in a popup window.

Add the connector

1

Open your connectors

Go to grok.com/connectors, or click Plugins in the Grok sidebar and open the Connectors tab.
2

Start a new connector

Click New Connector, then choose Custom.
3

Fill in the connection

  • Name: Crustdata
  • Server URL: https://install.crustdata.com/mcp
Click Add Connector.
4

Authorize

A popup asks Authorize Grok?. Click Continue, then sign in. To use a key instead, click Connect with an API key.
5

Pick a team

Choose the team the connector acts as. It uses that team’s credits and data access.
Crustdata then appears under Connected with a status of Added.

Check it worked

Ask Grok:
How many Crustdata credits do I have?
A number means you are connected. If you get no number:
  • Check the Connectors tab. If Crustdata is not under Connected, the sign-in did not finish.
  • Confirm popups are allowed for grok.com, then add the connector again.
  • Start a new chat. A connector added mid-conversation may not be picked up until you do.

Try it

Ask for what you want in plain English:
  • “Show me AI startups with 100-500 employees”
  • “Who are the engineering leaders at Anthropic?”
  • “What jobs does Stripe have open right now?”
  • “Find the profile for jane.doe@acme.com
A single request can chain steps: “Find AI startups hiring engineers, then get me the founders’ emails.”
Credit costs vary by request and plan. See Pricing for per-request credit costs and Rate limits for limits.
