Your own MCP server, doing your own work

You don't need to ship an app to get value from GetMCP. If a tool you use every day has an API, connect it once and ask Claude, ChatGPT or Manus to read it and update it for you. Here are real setups, step by step.

Run every client project in Kitchen.co from Claude

Connect the Kitchen.co API to your own MCP server once. Then ask Claude what's overdue across every client board, who you're waiting on, and have it post the update in the right conversation.

See which payments failed and which subscriptions need attention

Look after every client WordPress site from one chat

Give each client site its own server from the WordPress template, all behind one Gateway address. Then ask which sites have drafts waiting, or fix a page on any of them, without signing in to each one.

Your app isn't listed? It works the same way.

Give Claude the app's API documentation and say what you want to do. Claude builds the tools in GetMCP for you, with no code. Most of the setups above started exactly like that.

Connect the tools you already pay for, then just ask.

One MCP server on your own host, one address for every AI app you use.
