Connect Claude & ChatGPT to Live Data Technologies

Ask your AI to find a person, check whether your contacts still work where you think, or see who in a ledger has changed jobs. It can search Live Data's people database, read work histories, verify current jobs and manage the ledgers of people you track. It can also show your organization's API usage against its limits.

Try asking

“Who in our Customers ledger changed jobs in the last 30 days?”
The AI searches the ledger's contacts with a date filter and lists the people who changed jobs.
“Find Jane Miller at Acme and show me her work history.”
It finds the person from the details you give, with a match confidence, and reads her record with current job and work history.
“Do these five people still work at the companies in our CRM?”
It checks their current jobs from name, company or LinkedIn URL.

“Add these three contacts to the Customers ledger.”

Questions

What can the AI do in Live Data Technologies?

It can search Live Data's people database, find a specific person, read person records and verify current jobs. It can list, create and update ledgers, add, search, list and remove ledger contacts, read tracked fields and imports, and read your API usage.

Does the AI see my Live Data credentials?

No. Your Live Data 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 search only. Removing a contact from a ledger is permanent and can require your approval before it runs, as can verifying current jobs. 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 Live Data account.

Why do I need a service account and an organization ID?

Live Data gives API access through service accounts. PipMCP uses the service account's client ID and secret to get a short-lived access token and renews it when it expires. The organization ID, which starts with o_, is part of every call, so the AI works in the right Live Data organization.
