Your AI, connected to your business.
Instead of copying information back and forth between your tools and your AI, your assistant holds a live connection it can query and act on. This server exposes ECGrid as a set of MCP tools, so the AI you already use can work with the live network natively. The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that connects AI assistants such as Claude and ChatGPT directly to external services and data.
Ask instead of navigate
Query your account data in plain language instead of clicking through a portal.
Build AI agents
Wire your AI directly into your B2B workflow — look things up, diagnose problems, surface insights automatically.
Works with any MCP client
Claude Desktop, ChatGPT, or any tool or custom agent built on the MCP standard.
Resources & Prompts
Glossary, status catalogs, and guided diagnostic sequences available alongside tools.

Which credential to use
| Product | Header | Credential value |
|---|---|---|
| ECGrid Connectivity | X-Connectivity-API-Key |
Your ECGrid API key |
| Simplify (Translation) | X-Translation-API-Key |
Your Simplify Personal Access Token (PAT) |
| GPA (DataSync) | X-DataSync-API-Key |
Your GPA Personal Access Token (PAT) |
Supply the header for each product you want to use — one connection can carry several. Each header pairs with the matching credential value from the table above. The legacy X-APIKey header is still accepted as an alias for connectivity.
Claude Desktop
Add to your claude_desktop_config.json and restart Claude Desktop. Connect a single product, or several at once — replace each placeholder with its matching credential from the table above.
{
"mcpServers": {
"ecgrid-mcp": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"mcp-remote",
"https://mcp.ecgrid.io/mcp",
"--header",
"X-Connectivity-API-Key:YOUR_ECGRID_API_KEY",
"--transport",
"http-only"
]
}
}
}
Using Translation or GPA instead? Swap the header line for X-Translation-API-Key or X-DataSync-API-Key with its credential from the table above.
The legacy X-APIKey header is still accepted as an alias for connectivity.
Requires Node.js v18 or later — nodejs.org
Claude Code
Run this from your terminal — Claude Code connects to remote HTTP servers directly, no bridge needed. Repeat --header to add more products.
claude mcp add --transport http ecgrid-mcp https://mcp.ecgrid.io/mcp --header "X-Connectivity-API-Key: YOUR_ECGRID_API_KEY"
Using Translation or GPA instead, or several at once? Add another --header flag with X-Translation-API-Key or X-DataSync-API-Key from the table above.
Verify with claude mcp list. Requires the Claude Code CLI — code.claude.com/docs
ChatGPT
In ChatGPT go to Settings → Connectors → Add connector and paste this URL:
https://mcp.ecgrid.io/mcp
When prompted for authentication select API key, set the header name to X-APIKey, and paste your ECGrid API key as the value. Translation users: use header X-Translation-API-Key with your Simplify Personal Access Token (PAT). GPA (DataSync) users: use header X-DataSync-API-Key with your GPA PAT.
Requires ChatGPT Plus, Pro, Business, or Enterprise. Connector settings path may vary by client version.
After connecting, paste this into your AI to confirm it's working:
Using the mcp.ecgrid.io MCP connection, show me what tools are available and what you can help me with.
Using a different AI?
If your AI supports MCP, add https://mcp.ecgrid.io/mcp as the server URL in your AI's connector settings, then use this prompt:
I've connected to an MCP server at https://mcp.ecgrid.io/mcp.
Please show me what tools are available and what you can help me with.
