Connect Novu to ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini

Set it up once and it works in ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and any other client you love. It all runs safely in the background, so you can relax and focus on what really matters. Manage workflows and subscribers through natural conversation.

Your AI does the work. We keep it safe and sound.

No other AI tool gives you this. Your workflow runs in the client you already love, your account stays protected, and you decide what the agent can and cannot do. It is the whole reason to make the switch.

Each Connector lives inside our infrastructure, the same place where your workflow runs. The three things below are already part of it, working quietly in the background so you never have to think about them. Nothing to add, nothing to set up, nothing to worry about.

V8 Isolate01

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed environment.

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed V8 runtime — no access to your files, your system, or other servers. A Connector never sees past its own request.

Kill Switch02

One switch stops every agent. Instantly.

One action deactivates every Connector, revokes every token, and ends every session at once. AI Governance keeps the record.

FinOps per User03

Spending limits that pause instead of surprise.

Every user keeps their own connections and credentials, isolated from everyone else. Anything that would cross your spending limit is held for your approval, not billed.

Three controls, built into the layer your AI connects through.

Automate a task

Put Novu to work on one thing.

Step-by-step automations your AI runs through this Connector: the workflow, the prompts to start with, and the exact capabilities behind each move.

One connector, every AI

Novu works with the most popular AI clients.

These are the most popular clients, each with a step-by-step guide: one link, set up once, with governance and visibility built in. And because everything runs on the MCP standard, the same connection also works in any other compatible client — nothing to rebuild.

Building your own app? The connector is yours to use.

You don't need a client to put Novu to work: the same hosted connection plugs into your own applications and agent code, with the same governance on every request. Build with it, chat with it — one connection for both.

Connect your client

One URL. Every client.

Activate the Connector, copy your link, and paste it into the client you already use. 39 capabilities arrive ready to run.

Preview access · not provider authentication

The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of Novu, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Novu. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.

FAQ

Questions Novu owners ask.

  • 01

    How do I connect this MCP to my AI client?

    You subscribe to the Novu MCP on Vinkius and enter your Novu Secret Key. Once connected, it is available in any MCP-compatible client like Claude or Cursor.

  • 02

    Do I need to use Postman to test my notifications?

    No. You can trigger events, update subscribers, and verify payloads directly through your AI client using this MCP.

  • 03

    Can I cancel a notification that is already scheduled?

    Yes. You can use the cancel_trigger capability with a transaction ID to stop active or pending workflows like digests or delays.

  • 04

    Which channels can I send notifications through?

    This MCP supports triggering notifications across Email, SMS, Push, and Chat via Novu workflows.

  • 05

    Can I manage user preferences through the AI?

    Yes. You can use capabilities to retrieve, update, or bulk update subscriber preferences to manage how users receive messages.

  • 06

    Can I send a notification to all my subscribers at once?

    Yes! Use the trigger_broadcast capability with your workflow name. This will initiate a notification event for every existing subscriber in your Novu environment.

  • 07

    How do I find a subscriber if I only have their email address?

    You can use the search_subscribers capability and provide the email as a parameter. The agent will return the subscriber's full profile, including their unique subscriberId.

  • 08

    Is it possible to stop a notification that is currently in a 'delay' or 'digest' state?

    Yes. By using the cancel_trigger capability with the corresponding transactionId, you can halt any active or pending workflow execution before it reaches the final delivery.
