AI has changed where software buying begins, and most go-to-market teams are still catching up.
Buyers are building shortlists inside AI tools long before most revenue teams know they're in market, and what gets recommended in the AI search answers depends on what those AI systems can trust. The signals exist in buyer intent, customer voice, and competitive insights, but most teams have no way to act on them in the moment that matters.
At G2, we're building new capabilities designed to close that gap, bringing trusted buyer behavior data directly into the AI agents, CRMs, and analytics environments that go-to-market teams use every day.
G2's MCP integrations have seen strong early adoption. More than 350 customers and more than 100 weekly active users are already querying Buyer Intent and customer reviews. And they're doing so directly in the tools they use every day. G2 customers can also apply these MCPs to build agents that further automate their processes within each platform.
The motivation for growing our MCP quickly is straightforward: Teams shouldn't have to leave their preferred tools to access G2's buyer intelligence. MCPs make that type of seamless work experience possible while also enriching the available data.
G2 now offers MCP integrations with six platforms:
We're also introducing data connectors for Snowflake, BigQuery, and Databricks, bringing G2 data directly into existing analytics environments. Teams can combine these insights with CRM and product usage data to build a stronger, more complete view of the competitive market and potential pipeline.
Not only have we expanded Buyer Intent coverage across Capterra, GetApp, and Software Advice, giving teams up to 2x more buyer signals, but we're now adding new ways to see and act on that data.
Review presence is increasingly tied to AI search visibility, meaning the companies with the strongest, most credible review signals are the ones showing up in the results that matter. G2 introduced three new capabilities to help companies build and sustain that presence.
Most teams have moved past the question of whether to use AI. The harder question is how to actually implement it well. AI Blueprints is G2's answer to that.
AI Blueprints extends G2's peer validation model to help teams become more effective at implementing the AI tools they're already evaluating on G2. The library includes over 500 peer-submitted AI skills and workflows from real practitioners, not vendors. Each Blueprint covers the strategy, process, tools, and business impact behind real AI implementations across a range of use cases.
Every Blueprint also includes the option to save the corresponding skill or use a simple "Install" prompt to bring the task directly into an existing environment. Because these Blueprints come from practitioners, not vendors, teams can evaluate them the same way they'd evaluate a G2 review: as real experience, not marketing.
For go-to-market teams, getting trusted buyer signals into the tools you already use, without rebuilding workflows or exporting lists, is critical. For software vendors, stronger review presence and broader Buyer Intent coverage mean more visibility in the places buyers are actually doing their research. For organizations figuring out how to implement AI effectively, AI Blueprints applies G2's peer validation model to peer-submitted workflows that enable rapid scaling.
To see these innovations in action, watch G2's Quarterly Innovation Drop, AI Agents, MCP, and the New Intent Stack, on demand.
