The official MCP server filters its 209 tools by edition, plugin and permission and has per-category read-only settings. No status page, OpenAPI document or published API rate limit was found, and the Flex trial needs a credit card.\n\n**Heap.** Heap's server-side API suits an agent that records events. Limits are published, bulk calls take 1,000 items and track accepts an idempotency key. The API returns no analytics, and ingest calls carry no secret beyond the environment ID. Heap's help centre lists a Heap MCP article, which a bot check stopped us reading, so the MCP server is ungraded.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Countly\n\n1. Create a dedicated token in the Token Manager, limited to the apps and endpoints the task needs, and send it in the `countly-token` header, not the URL\n2. Set `COUNTLY_TOOLS_ALL=R` unless the task needs writes. The token's own permissions still apply and the stricter of the two wins\n3. Call `apps_list` first. Most tools need `app_id` or an exact `app_name`\n4. Check `get_version` for the detected edition before planning funnel, retention or cohort queries, which need Enterprise plugins\n5. Set `ENABLE_ANALYTICS=false` to stop usage reports to stats.count.ly, and prefer the stdio server to mcp.count.ly so the server URL and token stay local\n\n### Heap\n\n1. Send EU projects to https://c.eu.heap-api.com instead of https://heapanalytics.com. The path stays the same\n2. Pass one of `identity` or `user_id` on track, never both\n3. Set `idempotency_key` on every track event so a retry doesn't duplicate it\n4. Stay under 30 requests per 30 seconds per identity, or batch up to 1,000 events in one bulk call\n5. For deletion, exchange the app_id and API key of the Main Production environment for a token first. Any other environment ID returns Unauthorized\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Countly or Heap?\n\nCountly scores 54.8 (C) on agent readiness against Heap's 53 (D), and leads in 5 of 7 scored categories. Heap leads on reliability and payments \u0026 pricing.\n\n### Do Countly and Heap need an API key?\n\nCountly needs an API key. Heap takes an API key or an OAuth sign-in.\n\n### Can an agent call Countly and Heap without installing anything?\n\nYes. Countly has a hosted endpoint at https://mcp.count.ly/mcp and Heap at https://heapanalytics.com.\n\n### Are Countly and Heap open source?\n\nCountly is open source (Countly Lite is AGPL-3.0 with added branding terms under Section 7. Enterprise plugins are proprietary. Flex is a hosted service under Countly's terms. The MCP server is MIT). No open-source release is listed for Heap.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/countly-vs-heap.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/countly-vs-heap.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"countly\", \"b\": \"heap\"}`.
