Connect Claude & ChatGPT to ContactDrive

Ask your AI to find a contact, show what has been logged with them lately or list the tasks due this week in ContactDrive. It can filter contacts on any field, create, snooze and complete tasks, link contacts with relationships and add people to lists. It can also create and edit email campaigns and read their reports.

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

Try asking

“What tasks are due this week?”
The AI lists your own tasks with a due date between today and the end of the week.
“What have we logged with Maria Jensen lately?”
It searches for the contact and lists the activity on her timeline.
“How many contacts do we have in Aarhus?”
It filters contacts on the matching field and returns just the count.

What your AI can do

Contacts and activity

Search, filter and read contacts, see logged activity, and link contacts with relationship types from your workspace.

Tasks

List, search, create and update tasks, mark them complete or snooze them until tomorrow or next week.

Lists and email campaigns

Create lists and add or remove contacts, and create, edit and read reports for email campaigns, with your templates.

“Remind me to call Acme's CFO next Tuesday.”
It finds the contact and creates a task with that due date, linked to the contact.
“Add Peter Holm to the Newsletter list.”
It finds the contact and the list and adds him. Removing someone from a list later does not delete the contact.
“How did last month's newsletter campaign do?”
It finds the campaign and reads its performance report.

Questions

What can the AI do in ContactDrive?

The AI can search, filter and read contacts, activity, relationships, tasks, lists, email campaigns, campaign reports and templates. It can create relationships, tasks, lists, tags and email campaigns, update tasks and campaigns, complete or snooze tasks, and add or remove contacts on lists.

Does the AI see my ContactDrive API key?

No. Your ContactDrive API key is encrypted at rest and never shown to the AI. After you save it, it is 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 read-only. Creating an email campaign makes a draft, and there is no tool to send it. Changes like removing contacts from a list 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 ContactDrive account.

Which access level should I choose for the key?

ContactDrive lets you create a key as Read-only, with Custom scopes or with Full access. Read-only is a good start if you only want the AI to look things up. To create or change tasks, lists or campaigns, the key needs access to do that. Each key is tied to one workspace.
