For people who already work in Claude or ChatGPT
Connect Claude or ChatGPT to FollowArc
The FollowArc MCP server gives your AI tools a safe way into your outreach workspace. Ask in plain English, and the AI looks things up, drafts replies, builds campaigns and sets up signal triggers, while FollowArc's limits and checks stay in force.
Connect in two minutes
- Server address. Use this in your AI tool's custom connector or MCP settings:
https://www.followarc.com/api/mcp - Sign in. Connector-capable clients such as Claude open a FollowArc sign-in window and ask you to approve access. For other clients, create a key in Settings under API keys and send it as
Authorization: Bearer <key>. - Choose how much it can do. A read-only key can look things up and draft. A write key can also take the actions listed below, always through the same safety checks as the app.
Things to ask
- "Show me who changed jobs in my network this month."
- "Which replies need me today? Draft an answer for the top three."
- "Build a draft campaign for IT services founders and show me the steps."
- "For my 'Warm intros' campaign, enroll people who started a new role and had a strong signal."
- "How is my funnel this week compared with the last 30 days?"
What it can do
Look things up
Read-only. These never change anything.

Draft and build (nothing is sent)
These produce drafts for you to review.
sophia.draft_replyThree reply drafts (warm, professional, quick) in your voice for an inbound message.sophia.build_campaignBuilds a full step sequence from a short brief. Always saved as a draft with no contacts.sophia.search_prospectsRuns a real LinkedIn search now and returns the people it finds.
Take action (needs a write-enabled key)
These change things, and the same safety checks as the app apply.
sophia.send_inviteSends a LinkedIn connection request through the full safety stack: limits, send window, suppression list.sophia.add_to_best_friendsAdds someone to your drip list.sophia.set_signal_triggersTurns signal-based enrollment on or off for a campaign.
Two ready-made prompts are included too: sophia.draft-followup drafts a follow-up for one contact, and sophia.campaign-health-check reviews a campaign and suggests next steps.
What it will not do
- Delete data, activate a campaign or get around the send limits. Those stay in the app.
- Show you another customer's workspace. Every call checks that you are a member.
- Treat text from your contacts as instructions. It is fenced as data before the AI sees it.
Frequently asked questions
What is the FollowArc MCP server?
It lets AI tools you already use, such as Claude or ChatGPT, talk to your FollowArc workspace: look up contacts and replies, draft responses, build campaigns and turn signal-based enrollment on. You work in the AI tool you prefer, and FollowArc does the outreach work with its safety checks intact.
Do I need my own API access for the AI model?
No. The AI tool uses its own model access. FollowArc only exposes your workspace to it through the connector.
Can the AI tool send messages without my approval?
Not past the safety stack. Sending an invite goes through the same limits, send window and suppression list as the app, and a read-only key cannot send anything. Building a campaign always saves a draft with no contacts, and nothing starts until you activate it.
What does the AI tool see?
Only the workspaces you are a member of, and only what the tools return. Text that came from contacts, such as names and reply bodies, is fenced before it reaches the AI tool so it is treated as data, not instructions.
How do I connect it?
In a connector-capable client such as Claude, add a custom connector with the server address below and sign in. For other clients, create an API key in Settings under API keys, choose read-only or write access, and send it as a Bearer token.
