Connect Claude & ChatGPT to Flashy

Ask your AI how last month's email campaigns did, to add a customer to a list, or to send a quick SMS from Flashy. It can search, create, update and block contacts, list your contact lists, record events and offline purchases, send SMS and read email, SMS and automation reports. Marketing questions get answered without building reports by hand.

Try asking

“How did our email campaigns do in September?”
The AI reads the email campaign report for those dates: sent, opens, clicks and revenue.
“Add [email protected] to the Newsletter list.”
It finds the list and the contact and updates the contact's list memberships. If the contact does not exist, it creates it first.
“Record an in-store purchase of 499 DKK for [email protected].”
It records the offline purchase with value and currency. This can trigger your automations.

What your AI can do

Contacts and lists

Search and read contacts by email or phone, create and update them with list memberships, block contacts and list your contact lists.

Events and purchases

Record customer events such as page views or add to cart, and in-store purchases with value and products. Both can trigger automations.

SMS and reports

Send SMS messages and read email campaign, SMS campaign and automation results for any date range.

“Send an SMS to +45 20 30 40 50 that the shop opens at 10 tomorrow.”
It sends the SMS right away from your sender name. It uses SMS credits.
“Stop all marketing to [email protected].”
It finds the contact and blocks them, so they stop receiving marketing messages.
“How are our automations performing this quarter?”
It reads the automation report between the dates you give.

Questions

What can the AI do in Flashy?

It can search and read contacts, list your contact lists, read your account details and read email campaign, SMS campaign and automation reports. It can create, update and block contacts, record events and offline purchases, and send SMS messages.

Does the AI see my Flashy API key?

No. Your Flashy 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 with reports and lookups only. Sending an SMS reaches the customer right away and uses credits, and recorded events and purchases can trigger automations. Those tools 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 Flashy account.

Why does my Flashy API key not work?

Flashy's API only works once your Flashy account is verified. If the connection fails even though you copied the key correctly, check that the account is verified in Flashy first.
