Connect Claude & ChatGPT to Handwriting OCR
Ask your AI for the text of a handwritten letter you already processed in Handwriting OCR, and it fetches the result. It can list your documents by status or type of processing, read transcribed text, tables and extracted data, and see which extractors you have set up. It can also check your remaining page credits and delete documents you no longer need.
Free plan, no credit card. Takes about a minute.
Try asking
“Show me the text of the letter I uploaded this morning.”
The AI lists your newest documents, finds the letter and fetches its transcribed text.
“Which documents failed to process?”

Questions
What can the AI do in Handwriting OCR?
The AI can list your documents, read a document's status and results (transcribed text, tables, extracted data or translation), list your data extractors, read your account details with remaining page credits, and delete a document with its results.
Does the AI see my Handwriting OCR credentials?
No. Your Handwriting OCR 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 keep it to reading results. Deleting a document is permanent and can require your approval before it runs. 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 Handwriting OCR account.
Can the AI upload new documents?
No. The tools on this connection read and manage documents that are already in your Handwriting OCR account. You upload and process documents in Handwriting OCR as usual, and the AI then works with the results.
