create_audience_from_brief
Build a grounded synthetic Audience from a population brief.
Minds · Model Context Protocol
Remote MCP server · Live
Build evidence-grounded synthetic audiences, test decisions, and inspect disagreement from the AI assistant where your work already happens.
The research sequence
Minds grounds a population before the first question is asked, then keeps the study available for follow-up instead of collapsing it into one answer.
Describe a market, buyer group, stakeholder set, or research population in plain language.
External statistics and research shape the audience before synthetic respondents are created.
Test concepts, messages, products, positioning, or hypotheses across the complete Study.
Compare segments, follow disagreement, and move structured results into the next decision.
Connect
Use OAuth when your client supports it. For clients that accept custom headers, generate an API key in Minds under Settings → API Keys.
claude mcp add --transport http mindsai https://getminds.ai/mcp \
--header "Authorization: Bearer minds_YOUR_API_KEY"
Enable developer mode in Settings → Security and login, then open Plugins and select the plus button. Enter the server URL and choose OAuth. Full guide.
Open Customize → Connectors, add the remote endpoint, and complete OAuth authorization.
Add https://getminds.ai/mcp as a remote MCP server in the client’s MCP settings.

Scope
Minds does not replace representative human research. It improves the first pass: expose objections, compare reactions, and decide which assumptions deserve validation with real respondents.
