Connect Claude & ChatGPT to Botdog

Ask your AI which leads replied this week, how a campaign is performing, or to add a batch of LinkedIn profiles to a campaign in Botdog. It can create, pause and resume campaigns, manage leads and lead lists, reply to LinkedIn conversations and send or schedule messages. You get outreach numbers and follow-ups without clicking through every campaign.

Try asking

“Which leads in the Agency owners campaign have replied?”
The AI finds the campaign and lists the leads who have replied, with their campaign status.
“How did our campaigns do over the last 30 days?”
It reads the team's outreach analytics for the period, and the numbers per campaign, such as invites sent, acceptances and replies.
“Add these 20 LinkedIn profiles to the Agency owners campaign.”
It adds the leads to the campaign by LinkedIn URL. If the campaign is active, Botdog starts contacting them on LinkedIn.

What your AI can do

Campaigns

Create, rename, pause and resume campaigns, read their sequence of visits, invites and messages, and add leads to them.

Leads and lists

Search leads by campaign, list, LinkedIn URL or reply status, update names, companies and notes, and build lead lists.

Messages and analytics

Reply to LinkedIn conversations, send or schedule messages, and read team, campaign and day-by-day outreach numbers.

“Pause the Webinar follow-up campaign.”
It pauses the campaign, which stops all its LinkedIn activity until you ask it to resume.
“Reply to Anna and say Tuesday at 10 works for me.”
It sends the reply in the LinkedIn conversation. The message reaches Anna right away.
“Send Jonas a follow-up message tomorrow at 9:00.”
It schedules the LinkedIn message to the lead, and Botdog sends it automatically at that time.

Questions

What can the AI do in Botdog?

It can read campaigns, campaign sequences and statistics, leads, lead lists, message snippets, team users, connected LinkedIn accounts and outreach analytics. It can create and update campaigns, pause and resume them, add leads to campaigns and lists, update leads, reply to conversations, send or schedule LinkedIn messages and delete a lead.

Does the AI see my Botdog API key?

No. Your Botdog 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 campaigns and analytics only. Actions that reach people on LinkedIn, like send_message, reply_to_conversation and add_leads_to_campaign, and deleting a lead 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 Botdog account.

Which LinkedIn account sends the messages?

Messages and invites go out from the LinkedIn sender accounts connected to your Botdog team. The AI can list those accounts with their status, and it can show which Botdog team your API key belongs to. PipMCP talks to Botdog, not to LinkedIn directly.
