Other clients

Open Connectors

Add the server

Enter the name Orthogonal and the URL https://mcp.orthogonal.com, then click Add.

Click Connect and authorize with your Orthogonal account. The tools appear once it connects.

Open settings

Press Cmd+, (Mac) or Ctrl+, (Windows/Linux) → MCP.

Add the server

Click “Add Server” and enter:

Name: orthogonal
URL: https://mcp.orthogonal.com

Enable it

Toggle the server on and start a new chat.

For any MCP-compatible client, point it at the Orthogonal server:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "orthogonal": {
      "url": "https://mcp.orthogonal.com"
    }
  }
}

Available Tools

The server exposes seven tools:

Tool	Description
`search`	Find APIs by describing what you need
`get_details`	Get full parameter info for an endpoint
`quote`	Get the exact price of a call without running it or spending credits
`use`	Execute an API call
`integrate`	Get ready-to-use code snippets
`batch_use`	Execute up to 20 API calls in parallel
`batch_get_details`	Get parameter info for up to 20 endpoints in parallel

When you ask your assistant to do something like “enrich this lead”, it will search for enrichment APIs, get_details to understand the parameters, then use to make the call and return the result.

Verify Installation

Ask your assistant:

“Search Orthogonal for APIs that can enrich leads by email.”

If it’s configured correctly, it will use the search tool and return results.

Troubleshooting

Server not showing up

Fully restart the client application.
Check that the URL is exactly https://mcp.orthogonal.com.
Verify your MCP client supports HTTP transport.

Tools not working

Check that your account has credits at orthogonal.com/dashboard.
Try a simple search first to verify connectivity.
Check the client’s MCP logs for errors.
