Try asking

“Find the contact with phone number 555 0142 and show me their tags.”
The AI looks up the contact by phone number and shows name, email, tags and other details.
“Text Maria Lopez that her appointment is confirmed for Friday at 10.”
It finds Maria's contact and sends her the text. This is a real SMS, so you can require approval first.
“Send the Spring sale template to everyone in the VIP smart list tomorrow at 9.”
It finds the smart list and the template, gets the contacts in the list and schedules a broadcast to them.

Questions

What can the AI do in Project Broadcast?

It can search and read contacts, custom fields, templates, smart lists, campaigns, keywords and trackable links, and check your credit balance. It can create, update, archive and restore contacts, create and rename smart lists and change who is in them, add contacts to campaigns or remove them, apply keywords, create trackable links, and send texts and broadcasts.

Does the AI see my Project Broadcast credentials?

No. Your Project Broadcast 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 lookups only. Sending a text or a broadcast reaches real people, and applying a keyword can trigger automatic replies, so these can require your approval before they run. Every tool call is logged.

Does it work with ChatGPT?

Yes. In ChatGPT, open Settings › Apps & Connectors › Advanced, turn on Developer mode and 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 Project Broadcast account.

Will the AI send texts without asking me?

Only if you let it. send_text_to_contact and send_broadcast send real SMS messages to your contacts. You can switch them off, or require your approval before each one runs, and still keep contacts, smart lists and campaigns available to the AI.
