DataLayer MCP Server
Give your AI agent access to 60M+ companies and 300M+ verified contacts. Enrich leads, find work emails, discover tech stacks, and identify buying intent — directly from Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, or any MCP-compatible AI agent.
What is this?
DataLayer is a B2B data enrichment API. This MCP server lets AI agents call it directly — no code, no HTTP requests, just natural language.
Ask your agent:
"Find the VP of Engineering at Stripe and get their verified email"
"Show me all SaaS companies in the US using Salesforce with 50+ employees that are actively hiring"
"What's the tech stack at HubSpot? Do they use AWS or GCP?"
"Find companies spending $10K+/mo on Google Ads with employee growth above 15%"
The agent calls the right DataLayer tool, gets structured data back, and reasons about it.
