Perplexity

Pull live attendee lists directly into Claude Desktop

This MCP Server lets your agent run `list_event_attendees` to pull real-time participant registration data directly into your chat, so you can stop exporting CSVs just to see who registered for your keynotes. You can ask Claude to filter the list by registration status or cross-reference it with session schedules. By pairing this with `list_registration_types`, you instantly know which ticket tiers are driving your attendance numbers.

Coordinate event schedules and venues on the fly

Running `list_event_sessions` and `list_event_speakers` through this MCP Server lets your agent map out your entire conference schedule in one go. If a room assignment changes, the agent checks `list_available_venues` to find an open spot that fits your capacity limits. You get instant layout and scheduling options without opening five browser tabs.

Monitor active campaigns using this MCP Server

Using `list_active_events` directly in your chat allows your agent to find what is running right now and grab specific configurations via `get_event_details`. When you need a quick status update, just ask Claude to search your catalog using `search_events_by_filter`. It pulls dates, capacities, and active counts so you can make fast decisions.
