Use Backdrop in Claude, ChatGPT or any AI agent

Want Claude, ChatGPT or another AI agent to answer questions about your calls? Connect Backdrop once, and your assistant can look up your calls, summaries, transcripts and MEDDPICC scores for you. It takes about a minute, and it can only read your calls — it can't change anything.

What your assistant can see

• Your calls: title, company, date, and who was on each call
• Call summaries and the follow-up email Backdrop drafted
• Transcripts: every line, with the speaker and timestamp
• MEDDPICC scores: the overall score, and for each element what the call answered, what's still missing, and its score out of 100. If your team uses a custom framework, you get that one instead.
• Accounts: the companies you've had calls with
• Upcoming meetings: your next 72 hours, with attendees and the pre-call brief

We add more to the connector all the time, so this list keeps growing. Don't see something here? Ask your assistant anyway.

Step 1: Copy this link

https://mcp.app.getbackdrop.ai/mcp

That's Backdrop's MCP connector address. You'll paste it into your AI assistant.

Step 2: Add it to your assistant

Claude

1. Go to Customize → Connectors.
2. Click + Add, then Add custom connector.
3. Name it Backdrop, paste the link, and click Continue.
4. Claude detects the right settings for you. Leave them as they are:
   • Authentication: Sign in now
   • OAuth client: Use Claude's published identity
   • Request headers: leave empty. Backdrop doesn't use API keys.
5. Click Add.
6. Click Connect and sign in with your Backdrop account.

Claude's own walkthrough: custom connectors

ChatGPT

In the ChatGPT desktop app:

1. Turn on Work in the switcher (or switch to Codex), then open Plugins and select the MCPs tab.
2. Click Add, then Add MCP server.
3. Name it Backdrop, choose Streamable HTTP, paste the link, and save.
4. Back in the server list, click Authenticate next to Backdrop and sign in with your Backdrop account.

On chatgpt.com:

1. Go to Settings → Apps → Advanced Settings and turn on Developer mode.
2. Back in Apps, click Create.
3. Name it Backdrop and paste the link.
4. Click Scan Tools, sign in with your Backdrop account, then click Create.
5. Open a chat, click +, and turn on Backdrop.

Claude Code

Run this in your terminal:

claude mcp add --transport http backdrop https://mcp.app.getbackdrop.ai/mcp

Then open Claude Code, run /mcp, select backdrop and choose Authenticate.

Codex

Run this in your terminal, then sign in with your Backdrop account:

codex mcp add backdrop --url https://mcp.app.getbackdrop.ai/mcp
codex mcp login backdrop

Cursor

Add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json, then sign in with your Backdrop account when Cursor asks:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "backdrop": {
      "url": "https://mcp.app.getbackdrop.ai/mcp"
    }
  }
}

VS Code (GitHub Copilot)

1. Open the Command Palette and run MCP: Add Server.
2. Choose HTTP, paste the link and name it backdrop.
3. Sign in with your Backdrop account when asked.

Other AI tools

Add the link as a custom connector or remote MCP server. Your tool needs to support Streamable HTTP and OAuth sign-in — Backdrop doesn't use API keys.

If your tool takes a JSON config, use:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "backdrop": {
      "url": "https://mcp.app.getbackdrop.ai/mcp"
    }
  }
}

If it only supports local servers, use mcp-remote instead:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "backdrop": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://mcp.app.getbackdrop.ai/mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Step 3: Ask away

• "What did we cover on my last call with Acme?"
• "Summarize my discovery calls from this week."
• "List the objections that came up on yesterday's demo."
• "What's the MEDDPICC score on my last Acme call, and what's still missing?"

Problems connecting?

• Sign-in keeps looping? Connect again and make sure you pick your team when asked.
• Claude can't connect after you changed its settings? Remove the connector and add it again with Sign in now and Use Claude's published identity. Backdrop doesn't support Register automatically.
• No Developer mode on chatgpt.com? It's off by default. Turn it on in Settings → Apps → Advanced Settings — on a company workspace, your admin may need to enable it for you. Or use the desktop app steps instead.
• Still stuck? Email support@getbackdrop.ai.
