Connect Claude & ChatGPT to Academy by Coassemble

Ask your AI which learners have finished a course, to draft a new course from a learning goal, or to group courses into a collection. In Coassemble it can read courses and their content, publish and duplicate courses, get a signed link to view or edit a course, and check learner progress and your plan allowances.

Questions

What can the AI do in Coassemble?

It can list and read courses, course content, collections, learners, clients, progress records and plan allowances. It can generate courses with AI, publish, duplicate and delete courses, create collections, update learners and get signed links to view or edit a course.

Does the AI see my Coassemble credentials?

No. You paste your Coassemble workspace ID and API key into PipMCP once. Your Coassemble credentials are encrypted at rest, never shown to the AI and never shown again after you save them, not even to you. The AI only sees the results of the tools you have switched on.

Can I control what the AI is allowed to do?

Yes. You choose which tools are switched on, so you can start with reading progress only. Publishing changes what learners see and deleting a course removes it until it is restored, and actions like these can require your approval before they run. Every tool call is logged.

Does it work with ChatGPT?

Yes. In ChatGPT, open Settings › Apps & Connectors › Advanced, turn on Developer mode and 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, and you do not need a credit card to start. Paid plans are billed per completed task. You also need your own Coassemble workspace on a paid plan with API access.

Why is the key entered as COASSEMBLE:workspace ID:API key?

Coassemble expects the whole Authorization value in that format: the word COASSEMBLE, your workspace ID and your API key, separated by colons. You enter it as one value in PipMCP. Some features, such as authoring and analytics, can need extra entitlements on your Coassemble plan, and Coassemble refuses those calls if they are missing.
