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 12 powerful capabilities that interface natively with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and other compatible AI platforms. No middleware. No custom integration required.
Updating event guides is usually a nightmare of clicks.
Today, if you want to change a session time or add a new sponsor, you're stuck. You have to log into the web builder, find the specific tab for 'Schedules,' then switch tabs to 'Custom Lists.' If you mess up one thing, you might break the map data too.
With this MCP, you just tell your agent what needs changing. The AI handles the complex sequence of API calls—updating the schedule and ensuring the location details follow automatically. You get back confirmation that everything is live.
Using the Guidebook MCP for list management.
Before, adding a new speaker meant finding the right list template, manually inputting their name, bio, and photo URL in separate fields. It was tedious, error-prone copy/pasting across five different sections of the backend.
Now you simply ask your agent to 'Add Jane Doe to the speakers list.' The MCP runs `create_custom_list_item`, handles all the required data formats, and gets it into place. Done.
What your AI can actually do with this
You can now manage complex mobile event guides using only conversation. Whether you’re planning a massive conference or an internal company kickoff, this MCP lets your AI agent act as your dedicated coordinator. You simply tell the system to check the current schedule for 'Global Tech Expo' and get back a clean list of sessions.
Need to add 20 new speakers? Just ask the agent to update the custom list. This means you stop clicking through complex web builder menus, manually checking APIs, or hunting down specific data points across different tabs. It all happens in chat. Connecting this MCP via Vinkius gives your AI client full control over listing guides, mapping locations, and keeping every attendee updated automatically.

Here's how it actually works
The bottom line is you talk to your AI client, and it handles the complex API work behind the scenes.
Subscribe to this MCP on Vinkius and retrieve your API Key from Guidebook Builder.
Connect your preferred AI client (like Cursor or Claude) using the key. The agent now has access to all event data.
Ask a natural language question, like 'Show me the speaker list for the Partner Summit,' and the MCP executes the necessary calls.
Who is this actually for?
This connector is for event operations leads or marketing managers who dread manual data entry. If your job involves syncing schedules, maps, and speaker lists across multiple systems before a major conference, this saves you hours of cross-referencing.
Manages the entire content lifecycle for the event guide, needing to update sessions or create new guides quickly as plans change.
Updates sponsor and exhibitor lists across dozens of different guides using simple text prompts instead of logging into multiple backend portals.
Uses the MCP to keep internal employees updated on company training schedules, location changes, and speaker rosters without leaving their primary workspace.
What Changes When You Connect
Stop updating guides piece by hand. Use the update_guide tool through chat to change titles, descriptions, or core details for any guide instantly.
Instantly get a full picture of what's happening. Running list_events lets you pull every session scheduled, so you never miss an important time slot.
Build out your content without manual effort. Use create_guide to spin up new event guides and immediately populate them with core metadata.
Keep track of who attended. The list_attendees tool pulls the full roster for any guide, letting you quickly audit participation numbers.
Organize your intellectual assets. You can use create_custom_list_item to add new speakers or sponsors and then list them all using list_custom_list_items.
See it in action
The schedule changed last minute
The conference coordinator asks, 'What's the updated program for tomorrow?' The agent runs get_event and list_events, pulling all changes and confirming that the keynote speaker is now in Ballroom B instead of the main hall. No manual calendar updates needed.
Need to onboard a new client
The onboarding lead asks, 'List all current training guides for new hires.' The agent runs list_guides, providing IDs and titles immediately so they can send the relevant materials without searching through folders.
Marketing needs to add sponsors
Instead of logging into a separate sponsor portal, the marketing manager asks the agent to 'Add TechCorp as a new sponsor.' The agent uses create_custom_list_item and updates the custom list automatically.
Checking venue readiness
An operations team member needs to know where all the breakout rooms are. They ask the agent, 'List all mapped locations for the summit.' The agent uses list_locations and provides a clean list of coordinates.
The honest tradeoffs
Trying to remember every tool name
The user tries, 'Hey, I need the guide details. Is it get_guide or list_guides?' They waste time trying to recall API names.
Just ask your agent in plain English: 'Tell me about the Global Tech Expo guide.' The MCP handles the translation and uses get_guide for you.
Manually updating a list
A team member has to copy 50 sponsor names from an email spreadsheet into the web builder's manual input fields.
Use your agent to run create_custom_list_item repeatedly or ask it to bulk-add items by referencing a simple text file upload.
Assuming content is always current
A planner assumes the schedule data hasn't changed since last month and publishes outdated session times.
Always check first. Ask your agent to check_guidebook_status or prompt it: 'Verify that all event details are current for this guide before publishing.'
When It Fits, When It Doesn't
Use this MCP if you manage dynamic, interconnected content—meaning a change in one area (like an attendee list) immediately affects another (like the schedule). You need to link events, maps, and people. Don't use it if your goal is just general document storage or simple note-taking; for that, a standard knowledge base tool works better. However, if you are building something complex—like a multi-day conference app—you absolutely need this MCP because the data points (schedules, locations, lists) talk to each other constantly.
Questions you might have
How do I use the list_guides tool? +
You ask your agent to 'List my guides.' It retrieves a list of every mobile guide you've set up, giving you the ID and name needed for further actions.
Can I update schedules using the get_event tool? +
No. The get_event tool only pulls details; it doesn't change them. To modify a session, you must use the update_guide tool via your agent.
What is the difference between list_events and get_event? +
The list_events tool gives you an overview of all sessions. If you need deep details—like a speaker's bio or specific session materials—you use get_event on a single, known event.
Do I need to list_locations for my conference? +
You should if your guides are mapping physical venues. The tool lets you search and pull accurate details about every room or area used during the event.
How do I use the `check_guidebook_status` tool? +
This tool confirms if your connection to Guidebook is working. Running it verifies that your API key and credentials are correctly set up, giving you peace of mind before running larger data queries.
How do I use the `create_custom_list_item` tool? +
You use this to add new records, like a speaker or exhibitor, directly into your custom lists. It's perfect for onboarding new data without manually editing the web builder.
When should I use the `update_guide` tool? +
Use this when you need to make structural changes across an entire guide, not just a single session. It's your go-to for large-scale modifications that affect the overall scope of the mobile app.
How do I list all participants using the `list_attendees` tool? +
This tool pulls a complete roster of every person registered in an active guide. You can then process this data to segment users or check attendance metrics quickly.
How do I find a Guide ID? +
You can use the list_guides tool to retrieve all mobile guides in your account along with their unique identifiers and names.
Can I see the speakers or exhibitors for an event? +
Yes! Use the list_custom_lists tool with a specific guide_id to retrieve all custom directories like speakers, exhibitors, or sponsors.
Does the integration support viewing the event map? +
The list_guide_locations tool provides the metadata for all mapped locations within a guide, helping you identify precisely where sessions take place.
