OpenGlad

What is OpenGlad?

OpenGlad is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that acts as a loss‑prevention friction engine for startup founders. It connects to AI clients like Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf and runs diagnostic tools—using live Reddit discussions, behavioral pattern scanning, failure simulation, and a revenue gate—to evaluate a startup idea before any code is written.

How to use OpenGlad?

Add the following configuration to your MCP client:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "openGlad": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://openglad.tuguberk.dev/mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Then describe your startup idea to the AI client. For example: “Run the bet on my idea: an AI tool that generates investor pitch decks from a one-page brief.”
