Connect AI Directly to Your Business Systems
The game changer: MCP (Model Context Protocol) lets AI assistants directly access your business systems. No more copy-pasting. No more context switching. Just intelligent automation with full system access.
What Are MCP Servers?
MCP servers are lightweight connectors that bridge AI assistants (like Claude Desktop) with your business systems. They expose your tools and data as functions that AI can call directly, enabling:- Direct Database Access: AI reads and writes to your database
- API Integration: LLMs interact with any REST or GraphQL API
- Tool Execution: AI runs scripts, queries, and automations
- Real-Time Data: Fresh data access without manual updates
- Secure Context: Controlled access with proper authentication
Why MCP Changes Everything
- Copy data from CRM to ChatGPT
- Paste responses back to systems
- Manually trigger automations
- Context lost between sessions
- No real-time data access
