Model Context Protocol
A standard way for AI models to reach your apps and data — no custom integration per pairing. Set an MCP server up as a plugin, and it works like every other plugin in your workspace.

A universal adapter between models and your tools
MCP lets an AI model talk to an app — a task manager, a calendar, a database — over a standard protocol, instead of custom glue code written and maintained for every pairing of tools.
It runs on a client-server architecture using JSON-RPC, and it is secure, open source, and built to keep pace with a growing ecosystem of apps and models.
Set up as a plugin, like everything else
In the admin panel, create a new plugin and pick Model Context Protocol under Implementation, then paste your server config JSON. Variables like user ID and authentication settings work just as they do in any other plugin.
Once installed, the plugin behaves like every other one in TypingMind and becomes available to your end users.
Your servers run where your data already is
TypingMind uses the open-source MCP Connector to run your MCP servers. Run it on your own machine, or deploy it to a private remote server so everything runs in an isolated environment.
That matters when a server needs to reach data you would rather not move — it can sit next to the data instead.
“TypingMind has given us a great, consistent UI for LLM use across the various models. It’s a substantial improvement over some of the early native AI apps many on our team had been using.”
What teams are already connecting
MCP is in use in practical, high-impact scenarios today.
Business tools
Fetch customer data from your CRM on demand, create or update tickets in Jira or Linear, and summarize Slack threads with updates posted back automatically.
E-commerce and logistics
Sync product inventory between an online store and a warehouse system, and let the AI handle order status updates or notify users of delays.
Translation and localization
Link a translation API for multilingual chat support, and translate messages, documents, or app content on the spot.
Content and task management
Turn meeting notes into task lists, auto-tag and archive content across Notion, Trello, and Asana, and schedule social posts.
Real-time access
Models reach external data and services live, rather than working from whatever was pasted into the conversation.
Secure and extensible
Models interact with tools in a secure, extensible way, and you decide where the servers run and what they can reach.
One connector, every server you run
The MCP Connector is open source and free to run — on your own computer, or on a private server you pay for. It manages every active MCP server in one place, so you decide where they run without exposing your local device to them.
Why MCP changes the maths
Most AI systems cannot reach external tools unless a developer builds a bespoke integration for each one.
No custom code per pairing
One standard protocol replaces the glue code you would otherwise write between every model and every app.
No more silos
Bespoke integrations create silos and slow innovation. A shared protocol removes that friction.
Everything in one context window
Search your database, check delivery times in your logistics app, and file a bug in your tracker without leaving the conversation.
Open and evolving
MCP is open source and designed to keep up with a fast-growing ecosystem of apps and AI models.
See why our customers love us
Read the impact we've had from those who matter most —our customers!
“I have entirely switched to TypingMind from the normal ChatGPT client. The responses are typically faster, and you can put chats in folders, search them, switch between all sorts of models.”
Thomas Frank
YouTuber with 3M+ subscribers
“I'm the CEO/CTO of an AI Edtech startup, and I've been using TypingMind daily since December 2023. Easily one of the best frontends for AI models I've tried: fast, clean, and really optimized for professional workflows.”
Cesar N'Gouan
CEO/CTO of AI Edtech
“We started using TypingMind when it was giving out team licenses and our team uses it every day! I use it for my product management work and I'd be quite disappointed if it went away.”
Shavin Peiris
Product Manager at Aristotle
“It's incredibly powerful and flexible. It allows me to centralize all my interactions with the different models. There's almost no reason for me to use any other application.”
Graydon T.
Founder
“TypingMind is a state of the art user interface for generative AI. I have been using it every day since I stumbled upon it a year ago.”
Roland Priborsky
CEO at Nionium Inc
“I love Typing Mind. One of the best purchases I have made. There is not one single LLM I use — I use ChatGPT for some tasks, Claude for others, and Gemini for others. With TypingMind I don't have to pay a monthly subscription for all of them.”
Larry James
Verified Trustpilot User
“We use TypingMind across various tasks to streamline our workflows and enhance productivity. We fell in love with the product and believed it to be the only one of its kind.”
Tommy Cunningham
Web Developer & Technical Manager of Entrepreneurs Circle
“As a CTO of multiple startups, I love this web app. It works well and I save a lot of money by using it because I don't have to pay a subscription to try different models.”
Youcef Lkml
Verified Trustpilot User
“This is the best ChatGPT client and I tested so many! So much better than the OpenAI user interface. Added my GPT-4 API to bypass the 25 message cap PLUS have a better user experience.”
