EdgeFinder for Grok

Give Grok access to live NFL, NBA, and MLB data, Polymarket odds, and player-level research through the EdgeFinder MCP server. Ask Grok any betting question and it can pull real data to answer.

Summary

EdgeFinder runs a remote MCP server so Grok can query NFL, NBA, MLB, and Polymarket data directly.

Grok connects to EdgeFinder over a hosted HTTPS URL, then pulls play-by-play, injuries, usage splits, and live odds to answer with sourced context instead of speculation.

Grok's custom connectors only accept a URL and don't let you set request headers, so you pass your EdgeFinder API key in the URL as a query parameter.

Use cases

  • - Player prop research with snap share, routes, targets, and red-zone usage.
  • - Injury impact checks using on/off samples and replacement patterns.
  • - Polymarket odds tracking and sportsbook cross-comparison.
  • - Parlay construction with per-leg probability reasoning.

Setup

  1. Step 1

    Create your EdgeFinder API key

    Open your EdgeFinder integrations page and choose Create API key. Copy the key — you'll paste it into the connector URL in the next steps.

  2. Step 2

    Build your connector URL

    Grok can't send request headers, so authenticate by adding your API key to the EdgeFinder MCP URL as the api_key query parameter. Replace YOUR_EDGEFINDER_API_KEY with the key you just created.

  3. Step 3

    Open Grok's custom connector form

    In Grok, go to Settings → Skills & Connectors → Connectors, click New connector, then choose Custom — "Add your own custom connector".

  4. Step 4

    Add the EdgeFinder connector

    In the Custom Connector dialog, give it a Name (e.g. EdgeFinder), paste your connector URL into Server URL, and click Add Connector.

  5. Step 5

    Verify Grok can see the tools

    In a new Grok chat, ask what tools it has available. The EdgeFinder tools should appear.

Example queries

  • - Research Saquon Barkley rushing yards tonight against a top-5 run defense.
  • - How does LaMelo Ball's usage change when Brandon Miller is out?
  • - Build me a three-leg NBA parlay for tonight with Polymarket context.
  • - Compare Polymarket and sportsbook prices on the Giants spread right now.

FAQ

Do I need a paid EdgeFinder plan to use Grok MCP?

Yes. The MCP server requires an EdgeFinder subscription because the underlying data queries run against the paid API.

How does Grok connect to EdgeFinder?

Grok connects to the remote EdgeFinder MCP server by URL over HTTPS as a custom connector. Because Grok can't send request headers, you authenticate by adding your API key to the URL as the api_key query parameter.
