Connect Claude & ChatGPT to Push To Display
Ask your AI to put a message on a screen. Push To Display shows text boards on phones, tablets and TVs, and PipMCP gives your AI one tool: send new content to a board. You describe what should be on screen, and the AI builds the text blocks with size, weight, color and background and sends them to the board or panel you choose.
Free plan, no credit card. Takes about a minute.
Try asking
“Put 'Meeting room busy until 14:00' on the office screen.”
The AI sends a text block to your default board, and the new text shows right away.
“Show today's sales total in big green numbers on panel 2.”
It sends a large, bold block in green to panel 2 of the board.
“Show 'Closed for lunch' on the whole screen with a red background.”
It sends the text as a full-panel update with a red hex background.
What your AI can do
Text blocks
Send one or more blocks, each with its own text, size, weight, color and background.
Boards and panels
Target your default board or a board by ID, and panels 1 to 4 or the full panel.
Layout
Set density, horizontal and vertical alignment and a hex background for the update.
“Show three lines: order 118 ready, order 119 preparing, order 120 received.”
It sends three blocks in one update, each with its own text and style.
“Put the queue number on the board in the hallway, centered.”
It sends the update to the board ID you name, centered horizontally and vertically.
“Clear the old message and show 'Welcome, visitors' instead.”
It sends new content, which replaces what the panel showed before.

Questions
What can the AI do in Push To Display?
It can send new content to a display board. Each update replaces what the panel shows and appears on screen right away. It cannot read what a board currently shows, and it does not manage boards or accounts.
Does the AI see my Push To Display credentials?
No. Your Push To Display 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 whether the tool is switched on, and because an update is visible on screen immediately, you can require your approval before each one is sent. 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 Push To Display account.
Where do I get a Push To Display API key?
Open the Quick Start screen in the Push To Display mobile app, or go to API Keys in the web portal and create one. The key starts with pt_. Paste it into PipMCP.
