Connect Claude & ChatGPT to 46elks

Ask your AI to send a text from your 46elks number, check what was sent yesterday or look up a call. It can send SMS and MMS, place outgoing calls, read your message, call and recording history and list your phone numbers. Your account balance is one question away.

Connect 46elks free

Free plan, no credit card. Takes about a minute.

Try asking

  • “Send an SMS to +46701234567 from our number saying the order has shipped.”

    The AI sends the text with your 46elks number as sender. It is a real message and costs money, so you can ask for a dry run first.

  • “Which texts did we send today, and did they arrive?”

    It lists sent and received SMS, newest first, with recipient, text and status.

  • “What is our 46elks balance?”

    It reads the connected account with name, balance and currency.

Numbers and account

  • “How long was the last call to +46812345678, and what did it cost?”

    It lists calls and reads the one you mean, with numbers, duration, state and cost.

  • “Which of our numbers can receive SMS, and where do they forward to?”

    It lists the phone numbers on the account with their capabilities and the URLs they forward SMS and calls to.

Questions

What can the AI do in 46elks?

The AI can send SMS and MMS, place outgoing calls, and read SMS, MMS, calls, call recordings, phone numbers and your account details, including balance. It works with the numbers already on your 46elks account.

Does the AI see my 46elks API password?

No. Your 46elks credentials are encrypted at rest and never shown to the AI. After you save them, they are not shown again, not even to you. The AI only sees the results of the tools it calls.

Can I control what the AI is allowed to do?

Yes. You choose which tools are switched on, so you can start with only reading history. Sending SMS or MMS and placing calls reach real people and cost money, and they can require your approval before they run. Every tool call is logged.

Does it work with ChatGPT?

Yes. In ChatGPT go to Settings › Apps & Connectors › Advanced and turn on Developer mode, then add your PipMCP link. Developer mode needs a paid ChatGPT plan: Plus, Pro, Business or Enterprise. The same link also works in Claude (Settings › Connectors › Add custom connector), Cursor and other MCP clients.

What does it cost?

PipMCP has a free plan with no credit card required. Paid plans bill per completed task. You also need your own 46elks account. Messages and calls are charged to your 46elks account by 46elks.

Can I test an SMS without sending it?

Yes. The send_sms tool has a dryrun option. Ask the AI to do a dry run, and 46elks checks the message without sending it, so you can see what would go out before a real text is sent.
