Every sales conversation contains signals: buying intent, competitor mentions, recurring objections, coaching moments, next steps, and customer commitments.
But too often, that signal stays buried in a recording library.
Demodesk MCP changes that. It connects your Demodesk meetings, including recordings, transcripts, AI summaries, and scorecards, directly to the AI tools you already use. Ask Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Codex, or another MCP-compatible assistant about your pipeline, discovery calls, coaching opportunities, or a specific customer commitment, and get an answer grounded in what was actually said.
No exports. No dashboard digging. No context switching. Just your Demodesk meeting data available inside your AI tool of choice.
Quickstart
MCP server URL: https://demodesk.com/mcp
Paste this URL wherever your AI tool asks for a custom MCP server, sign in to Demodesk, and authorize access.
Jump to setup instructions:
Claude · ChatGPT · Claude Code · Codex · Cursor · Other MCP tools
Before you start: personal vs. workspace AI accounts
Your setup path depends on whether your AI account is personal or managed by your company.
You can usually set up Demodesk MCP yourself if you use:
Claude Free, Pro, or Max
ChatGPT Plus or Pro, with Developer Mode enabled
AI tools that use a local MCP config file, such as Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor
Your workspace admin needs to add Demodesk first if you use:
Claude Team or Enterprise
ChatGPT Business, Enterprise, or Edu
On workspace plans, only Owners or admins can usually install custom connectors. If you do not see an option to add a custom connector, or the option is disabled, ask your AI workspace admin to install Demodesk MCP for your organization.
Once the connector is installed at workspace level, each user signs in with their own Demodesk account.
Coming soon: Demodesk is currently being reviewed for the Claude connectors directory and the ChatGPT app ecosystem. Once listed, setup will become simpler and require less manual configuration. We will update this article when that becomes available.
What you can do with Demodesk MCP
Once connected, your AI assistant can work directly with your Demodesk meeting data. Here are common use cases and example prompts.
1. Prepare for customer meetings
“I’m meeting Acme Corp at 3pm. Pull all prior Demodesk meetings with them and brief me on current status, open action items, key stakeholders, risks, and anything I should be careful about.”
Your AI can generate a meeting brief from real conversation history, not just CRM fields or notes.
2. Identify patterns across calls
“Across all discovery calls in Q1, what were the top three pricing objections, and which reps handled them best?”
Use transcripts and summaries to surface themes across many conversations without manually reviewing every recording.
3. Coach with evidence
“Pull the lowest-scoring demos from the last 30 days. For each one, identify the moment that most affected the score and quote the relevant exchange.”
Move from general coaching feedback to specific, reviewable examples from real calls.
4. Track competitor mentions
“Find every customer call this month where [competitor] was mentioned. What did the customer say, and how did the rep respond?”
Build competitive intelligence from actual customer conversations.
5. Draft follow-ups and summaries
“Draft a follow-up email for my call with Globex this morning. Reference the three commitments we made and the security review timeline.”
Generate follow-ups, account briefs, recap notes, and executive summaries from the meeting itself.
Set up your AI tool

Security and permissions
Demodesk MCP is designed to respect your existing Demodesk access controls.
Workspace-level MCP access
Demodesk admins can control which teammates are allowed to use Demodesk MCP.
This setting is available in Settings → Integrations → API → Demodesk MCP → Teammate access.
Admins can allow MCP access for all team members or limit it to selected team members. If access is limited to selected team members, only those users can authorize Demodesk MCP from an AI assistant.
This controls who can connect to Demodesk through MCP. It does not override meeting permissions. After a user connects, their AI assistant can still only access the Demodesk meetings that the user is already allowed to see.
OAuth authentication
You sign in to Demodesk during setup. Your AI tool receives a scoped access token. You do not need to create, copy, or manage an API key.
Existing Demodesk permissions apply
Your AI assistant can only access meetings that your Demodesk account is allowed to access.
If you can see a meeting in Demodesk, your AI tool can access it through MCP. If you cannot see it in Demodesk, your AI tool cannot access it either.
Granular tool control
Most AI tools let you approve individual MCP tools and revoke access later. You can manage this from the connector settings in your AI tool.
No Demodesk prompt storage
Demodesk MCP connects your AI tool to your authorized Demodesk data. Demodesk does not store your prompts or AI conversations as part of this connection.
FAQs
Which AI tools work with Demodesk MCP?
Any AI tool that supports MCP can connect to Demodesk. This includes Claude, Claude Code, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor, and other MCP-compatible assistants.
Why can’t I connect Demodesk MCP even though I have access to Demodesk?
Your Demodesk workspace may limit MCP access to selected teammates. Ask your Demodesk admin to go to Settings → Integrations → API → Demodesk MCP → Teammate access and confirm that you are allowed to use MCP.
If you use a managed AI workspace, your Claude or ChatGPT workspace admin may also need to install or enable the connector first.
Does Google Gemini work with Demodesk MCP?
It depends on which Gemini surface you are using.
In the consumer Gemini chat app at gemini.google.com, custom MCP connectors are not yet supported. Google has not released a way to add a custom MCP server through the standard Gemini interface, so Demodesk MCP cannot be connected there today.
If your organization uses Gemini Enterprise on Google Cloud, your admin can add Demodesk as a custom MCP server data source and make it available to your team. Use https://demodesk.com/mcp as the server URL.
If you work in the Gemini CLI, MCP is fully supported and you can connect Demodesk using the standard MCP configuration. And if you are building on the Gemini API or SDK, native MCP support launched in March 2026, which means you can call Demodesk MCP tools directly from your Gemini-powered applications.
We will update this article as soon as Demodesk MCP becomes available in the consumer Gemini app.
Can I install Demodesk MCP if my company manages my AI subscription?
If you use Claude Team or Enterprise, or ChatGPT Business, Enterprise, or Edu, your workspace admin usually needs to install the connector first.
After that, each user connects their own Demodesk account.
Why does ChatGPT require Developer Mode?
Developer Mode is the current ChatGPT setting that enables custom MCP connectors. It is required for personal Plus and Pro accounts when manually adding a custom MCP server.
Once custom MCP connectors become generally available, this step may change.
Can I set this up in the ChatGPT desktop app?
Initial setup is done on the ChatGPT web app. After the connector is added, it should become available in the desktop app as well.
What meetings can my AI assistant see?
Your AI assistant can see the same meetings your Demodesk account can see. Demodesk permissions are inherited automatically.
Is there a public API key?
No. Demodesk MCP uses OAuth. You sign in with your Demodesk account and authorize the connection. There is no API key to copy, store, or share.
When will Demodesk be available in Claude or ChatGPT connector directories?
Demodesk is currently under review for the Claude connectors directory and the ChatGPT app ecosystem. We will update this article once directory-based setup is available.
Where can I get help?
Contact Demodesk support. We can help you set up the connector, support your workspace admin, or work through specific use cases.
