The Polar MCP (Model Connection Protocol) enables a secure, direct connection between Polar Analytics and ChatGPT, allowing you to query your ecommerce and marketing data conversationally.

Once connected, you can use ChatGPT as an AI-powered analyst to:

  • Ask questions like “What was my ROAS by channel last month?” or “Which products had the highest profit margins last quarter?”

  • Pull live data from your Polar workspace.

  • Receive accurate, real-time insights without building dashboards or writing SQL.

This guide explains how to install and configure the Polar MCP in ChatGPT — whether you’re on the ChatGPT Personal or ChatGPT Team plan — and outlines the key differences between the two.


Understanding the Polar MCP Connection

The Model Connection Protocol (MCP) is the foundation that connects external data platforms like Polar Analytics to AI tools such as ChatGPT.

When installed, the Polar MCP:

  • Provides secure, read-only access to your Polar data.

  • Enables real-time queries directly from ChatGPT.

  • Uses Polar’s semantic layer, so your AI assistant understands metrics and business terms exactly as defined in your Polar workspace.

For example:
You can simply ask:

“What were my Meta Ads conversions in August compared to July?”
And ChatGPT will respond with data pulled directly from your Polar account.


Installing Polar MCP in ChatGPT

Step 1. Get Your Polar MCP Endpoint

  1. Log in to your Polar Analytics account.

  2. Make sure your workspace is connected to your data sources (e.g., Shopify, Meta, Google Ads).

  3. Copy your Polar MCP endpoint:

    https://api.polaranalytics.com/mcp

Step 2. Open ChatGPT Settings

  1. In ChatGPT, click your profile picture (bottom left corner).

  2. Go to Settings → Beta features → Enable “Tools” (if not already active).

  3. Then navigate to Settings → Tools → Model Connections (MCP).

  4. Click Add new connection.

Step 3. Configure the Polar MCP Connection

  1. Under Server URL, paste the Polar endpoint:

    https://api.polaranalytics.com/mcp
  2. When prompted, log in using your Polar Analytics credentials (same credentials you use for app.polaranalytics.com).

  3. Once authenticated, ChatGPT will display “Polar MCP Connected.”

You’re now ready to query Polar data directly through ChatGPT!

You can also ask ChatGPT to format results — for example:

“Show this data as a summary table sorted by highest ROAS.”
