Use Slate Stats in Claude and ChatGPT
Our data is available to AI assistants as a connector. Add the address below and your assistant can ask the research this site runs on — who gains when a player sits, injuries, team measures, season leaders and the measured studies — and every answer comes back with its sample size and window. It is free, read-only and needs no account.
The address
https://api.slatestats.com/mcpConnect it
Claude (claude.ai or the desktop app): open Settings, then Connectors, choose Add custom connector, and paste the address. No sign-in is needed.
ChatGPT (paid plans): in Settings, under Apps & Connectors, turn on Developer mode in the advanced settings, then create a connector with the address and no authentication.

- Who benefits if CeeDee Lamb sits — in catches and receiving yards?
- For every starter on this week’s injury report, who absorbs the work?
- Who leads the league in targets this season?
- How many more carries does the backup get if the 49ers’ starting running back is out?
- What has Slate Stats measured about whether touchdowns repeat?
What it can do
| Tool | What it answers |
|---|---|
| leaders | Who leads the league in a counting stat this season — receptions, targets, receiving yards, carries, rushing yards or touchdowns. |
| team | One team's own numbers: what the STAFF chooses (pass rate over expectation, raw pass rate, plays a game), what it scores and allows, what its defense concedes by position, and the same measures season by season. |
| cascade | If this player sits, whose projections move and by how much. |
| injuries | Who is on reserve or carrying an injury designation, optionally for one team (use the team abbreviation). |
| study | A measured finding with its sample size. |
| resolve | Turn a partial or misspelled name into a player. |
What it does not do
It does not give our projections or rankings — those are on this site’s pages — and it gives no odds, lines or betting picks. Nothing it returns is advice. It cannot see your league or roster. Projections are conditional on a player appearing, and a player whose game has kicked off carries none.
