Claude + HeyMark

Connecting Claude to HeyMark avoids a fairly absurd task: copying posts and metrics one by one before you can analyze them. HeyMark already gathers that context. The connector lets Claude access it inside the chat.

How to connect Claude to HeyMark

You save the connection once. There is one small catch: having HeyMark in Settings does not mean it is active in every chat. That is why the final two steps verify access before the analysis begins.

1. Open Claude

   Go to claude.ai and sign in with the account you will use for the analysis. You should see the main Claude screen.

   

2. Go to Connectors

   Open Customize → Connectors or go directly to the connectors page. You should see the connectors available to your account and the Add button.

   

3. Add a custom connector

   Select Add → Add custom connector. Claude will ask for a name and the MCP server URL. On Team or Enterprise, the organization owner may need to add it first.

   

4. Set up HeyMark and copy your MCP URL

   Complete this short setup in HeyMark:

   1Create your account

   Open HeyMark and complete registration. It includes a 14 day free trial.

   

   2Connect Instagram

   3Open Connectors

   4Copy your MCP URL

   If your HeyMark and Instagram accounts are already connected, start directly in Connectors. Everyone uses the same server URL; the authorization you complete next connects Claude to your workspace.

5. Paste the URL into Claude

   Return to the form, name the connector HeyMark, paste the URL, and select Add. If an authorization flow appears, review and complete it. HeyMark should now appear in your configured connectors.

   

6. Connect, authorize, and enable HeyMark

   Complete these three checks before starting the analysis:

   1Connect HeyMark

   Open HeyMark in your connector list and select Connect to begin authorization.

   

   2Allow all three categories

   3Enable it in the chat

   Once all three categories are set to Always allow and the HeyMark toggle is on, the connector is ready in that chat.

7. Run a short test

   Before using the long prompt, confirm that Claude is reading HeyMark instead of answering from general knowledge. Open and copy the verification prompt, paste it into the chat, and send it. The response should include specific data from your account or explain what Claude cannot access.

   Copy

   Before starting the analysis, review HeyMark and tell me exactly what information you can access from my Instagram account.
   
   Tell me:
   1. Which Instagram account or accounts are available to you.
   2. How many posts you can access and from what period.
   3. Which metrics are available for each post.
   4. Which follower or audience data is available.
   5. Which information is NOT available.
   
   Do not make recommendations yet. Only confirm the actual scope of the data you can read from HeyMark and give me 3 specific examples of posts or metrics you found.

   

8. Paste the master prompt

   If the test returned specific data, open and copy the master prompt, paste it into the same conversation, and send it. The result should cite real posts and metrics and clearly identify which parts are hypotheses.

   Copy

   Analyze my Instagram account using only the information available through HeyMark.
   
   Before reaching any conclusions, review the post history and available metrics. If a data point does not exist or you cannot access it, say so and do not estimate it.
   
   Use widgets.
   
   Complete the analysis in this order:
   
   1. Account snapshot
   Summarize what is happening with my content today in 5 to 8 findings. Prioritize specific patterns over general advice.
   
   2. Best performing content
   Identify my best performing posts. For each one, review the format, topic, hook, caption, CTA, date, time, and every metric available to you. Explain what they have in common and what probably made them work.
   
   3. Worst performing content
   Look for recurring patterns in posts that perform below my usual results. Separate what the data demonstrates from what is only a hypothesis.
   
   4. Audience
   Analyze everything HeyMark makes available about followers, reach, interactions, comments, and audience behavior. If detailed demographic data does not exist, do not invent it. In that case, infer interests only from content and comments you can actually access, and label those conclusions as hypotheses.
   
   5. Content formula
   Summarize which topics, formats, approaches, and types of hooks I should repeat more often. Also tell me what I am doing too much and which opportunities I am not using yet.
   
   6. Account growth strategy
   Propose a specific strategy for the next 30 days. Include organic content, distribution, collaborations, ways to repurpose my best posts, actions in comments or DMs when appropriate, and 5 growth experiments.
   
   For each experiment include the hypothesis, the exact action, the metric to measure, and the result that would count as a positive signal. Use my own historical performance as the reference whenever possible.
   
   7. Ideas ready to execute
   Give me 12 post ideas based on patterns that have already worked for my account. For each idea include the format, concept, opening hook, and objective.
   
   8. Executive summary
   Finish with three clear sections: what to keep, what to change, and what to test this week.
   
   Connect every recommendation to a real post, pattern, or metric whenever possible. Avoid generic phrases such as "post more," "be consistent," or "know your audience" unless you explain exactly what they mean for this account.

   

Keep working with your results

Once Claude finishes the analysis, open the prompt you need to turn it into a specific next step.

Use the previous analysis and turn it into a 30 day content calendar.

Do not invent a new strategy. Build the calendar from the patterns you already found in my account.

For each piece include the day, format, idea, hook, objective, CTA, and the reason you are proposing it. Keep a realistic mix of formats and clearly identify which pieces are experiments. (use widgets)

Focus only on my best performing posts now.

Compare them with one another and reconstruct a repeatable formula: topics, hook structure, format, caption style, CTA, posting rhythm, and any interaction pattern you find.

Then propose 10 new variations that preserve the same logic without copying the original content.

Review your previous recommendations and remove everything generic.

For each recommendation, add:
1. Evidence from my account.
2. What it means.
3. A specific action.
4. The metric I should monitor.

If a recommendation cannot be supported by real data or a real pattern, label it as a hypothesis.

What to expect from the result

The clearest sign that it worked is that you recognize your account in the response. You should see specific posts, metrics, and patterns, not a strategy that could apply to any profile. The result should include:

• A short account snapshot with observable findings.
• The best and worst posts, with patterns explained using real data.
• An audience analysis that does not invent demographic data when HeyMark does not provide it.
• A repeatable content formula, not a list of best practices.
• A 30 day strategy with five experiments and one metric for each.
• Twelve ideas ready to execute, based on what has already worked for your account.
