Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and more
The Model Context Protocol standardizes how applications expose capabilities to LLMs. Instead of operating in isolation, your AI gains direct access to external platforms, live data, and real-world actions through secure, standardized connections.
This connection provides 10 powerful capabilities that interface natively with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and other compatible AI platforms. No middleware. No custom integration required.
The pain of manually verifying event content is exhausting.
Right now, checking a single event's content means logging into the CMS, navigating away from the main dashboard to the 'Sponsors' tab, then maybe going back to check the schedule. You copy names here, paste them there, and cross-reference dates in another spreadsheet. It’s slow, and you always worry about missing one detail.
With this MCP, your agent handles the manual navigation for you. You ask it a question—like 'What are all my sponsors?'—and it pulls that exact data from `list_custom_lists` and hands it back to you instantly. It’s like having an expert content coordinator sitting next to you.
Pulling Core Data with the Guidebook MCP
The manual steps of gathering speaker bios, checking if a location is defined, and confirming schedule overlaps vanish. You don't have to jump between tabs or worry about which API endpoint you need for each piece of data.
Now, your agent orchestrates it all. It calls `list_guides` to get the project scope, then uses the appropriate tool—like `get_session` or `list_locations`—to build a complete picture in one go.
What your AI can actually do with this
This connector lets you manage the entire content lifecycle of a mobile event application without touching the Builder interface. Your agent talks to Guidebook, giving it read access across your whole catalog. You can ask your AI client to pull together all metadata for every guide in your account; then have it list out every session scheduled for one specific day.
Need speaker details? It grabs those too. And if you need to check the roster of sponsors or exhibitors, it pulls that custom data right into your conversation flow. Since Vinkius hosts this MCP, connecting is simple: link your key and let your agent do the heavy lifting across all these resource types.
019d75ac-9265-7216-ac33-85890a7973ae Here's how it actually works
The bottom line is you talk to your agent, and your agent talks to Guidebook's data layer. You never have to write API calls or touch a dashboard.
First, subscribe to this MCP on Vinkius and enter your Guidebook API Key (JWT token).
Next, connect your preferred AI client; it handles the authentication handshake.
You simply prompt your agent with a natural language question, like 'What are the speakers for the Tech Summit?' The agent then calls the necessary tool to get the data.
Who is this actually for?
Event tech leads who hate spending hours manually cross-referencing CMS dashboards; content managers who need to audit custom lists faster than they can copy and paste; developers building integrations that need reliable, structured event data.
Needs to check the accuracy of speaker bios or confirm if a sponsor is correctly listed in the custom list before publishing.
Has to verify session times and locations across multiple guides quickly, without digging through deep CMS menus.
Needs a clean data stream of guide details or schedule sessions to feed into a front-end application prototype.
What Changes When You Connect
Quickly verify session times and speaker assignments without clicking through the CMS. Use list_sessions or get_speaker to pull real-time data into your agent's memory.
Stop manual content auditing. Running list_custom_lists lets you audit sponsors, exhibitors, or other custom groups instantly from a prompt.
Build reliable front ends by letting the MCP handle structured reads. You can grab all location data with list_locations and feed it directly to your app's map view.
Get an accurate project overview immediately using list_guides. Know exactly what guides you have available without navigating complex menus.
Avoid API overages by checking usage first. The dedicated get_rate_limit tool lets you monitor your quota before running big data queries.
See it in action
Verifying Speaker Data Before Print
A marketing lead needs to confirm the full bio and title for 12 speakers across three different guides. They prompt their agent, which uses list_speakers first, then calls get_speaker multiple times to compile a single, verified list for their printing team.
Building an Event Map
An app developer needs all the physical venues and locations used in the event. They prompt their agent, which uses list_locations. The resulting structured data is then fed into a map rendering API for development.
Debugging Schedule Conflicts
The ops team finds two sessions listed for the same time slot. They ask their agent to use list_schedules and then get_session on both conflicting IDs, allowing them to see the details side-by-side in the chat window.
Auditing Sponsor Inclusion
A content manager wants to ensure all 50 contracted sponsors are included and correctly listed. They use list_custom_lists to pull the full roster, instantly verifying inclusion against their master spreadsheet.
The honest tradeoffs
Trying to get everything in one API call
Asking your agent for 'all guide details and all speaker bios' in a single, vague query. This often results in incomplete or mismatched data.
Break it down into specific steps. First, use list_guides to find the ID; then use that ID with list_speakers, followed by calling get_speaker for each individual person.
Ignoring API quotas
Running a massive data retrieval query (e.g., listing 10,000 records) and hitting the rate limit without warning.
Always start by checking get_rate_limit to understand your current usage and remaining capacity before executing large reads.
Confusing list results with detail data
Assuming that just calling list_sessions provides enough information, but finding the times or speaker names are missing.
After listing sessions using list_sessions, you must follow up by prompting for details on a specific time slot and running get_session to get the full context.
When It Fits, When It Doesn't
Use this MCP if your primary task is reading, auditing, or coordinating structured event data (guides, schedules, people). If you need to write content—like creating a new guide or updating a speaker's bio text—you'll need a different service. This connector excels at retrieval: getting the roster of sponsors (list_custom_lists), pulling up one person’s details (get_speaker), or checking what sessions are running (list_sessions). Don't use this if you just want to manage user accounts; that requires an identity management tool instead.
Questions you might have
How do I generate my Guidebook API Key? +
Log in to Guidebook Builder, click your profile dropdown in the top right, select 'Manage your account', and then navigate to the 'API Key' section to generate your token.
Can I see the schedules for multiple guides? +
Yes! You can use list_guides to find the IDs for all your guides, and then use list_sessions or list_schedules with the specific guide ID to see its agenda.
How many requests can I make to the Guidebook API? +
The Guidebook Open API typically has a limit of 10,000 requests per day per account. You can use the get_rate_limit tool to check your current usage.
What format should the API Key be in? +
The API Key should be the raw JWT token provided by the Guidebook Builder. The integration will automatically handle the 'JWT' prefix for authorization.
What happens if I run `get_guide` with an invalid guide ID? +
The API returns a specific error code and detailed message explaining the failure. This prevents data errors; your agent knows exactly why the request failed, allowing it to prompt you for corrections instead of guessing.
If I use `list_guides`, how do I retrieve results beyond the first page? +
The tool supports cursor-based pagination. When your agent gets a response, look for the next cursor token and include it in your subsequent call to pull all available guides efficiently.
When using `get_speaker`, can I confirm if that speaker is linked to a specific schedule session? +
The API response for get_speaker includes an optional field listing associated sessions. This confirms the linkage, letting your agent build a complete profile view without needing multiple tool calls.
What metadata does `list_custom_lists` return for content like sponsors or exhibitors? +
It returns structured records containing the custom list name, item ID, and core data points specific to that category. This lets your agent manage all non-standard content using a single command.
