  "notes": "Disambiguated as the YC-backed, HubSpot Ventures/SignalFire-funded contact-based marketing \"Vector\" (Reveal + Target products), not any dev-tools product of the same name. Reveal plan is self-serve ($399-$999/mo, 14-day trial); Target (ad activation) requires an annual contract from $3,000/mo. Checked mcp.so and glama.ai directly - no listing found on either, consistent with waitlist-stage MCP. 2026-09-02: CHANGED none-found -> unknown. Vector's own blog now carries a launch series: 'We built an MCP for marketing. Here's what it actually does.' (2026-05-06), 'How Vector uses Vector MCP' (2026-05-14) and 'What can you actually ask your ads with Vector MCP?' (2026-05-26). The launch post describes V1 as read-only access to LinkedIn Ads performance plus de-anonymized site visitors and says the MCP 'lives in Claude', but the only call to action is 'Sign up for early access', and vector.co/mcp returns 404. No endpoint, setup docs, auth method or registry listing (registry search for vector.co is empty), so per law 1 this is a first-party claim without a URL that answers: unknown, not official.",
