Before you connect
Questions about Sansan.
The practical details behind the request, access and result.
What does the Sansan MCP do for my AI agent?
It gives your AI agent direct access to your company's digitized business card library. Your agent can then find contact info, list departments, and search your network history for you.
Can I search for specific people in my Sansan account?
Yes, you can ask your agent to search for anyone by name. It will scan your database and provide the matching cards and contact details instantly.
How does this help with my business card history?
It turns your old physical cards into a searchable database. You can ask your agent to pull up details from years of networking without having to open the Sansan app.
Can the AI see my company's departments?
Yes, the Connector allows your agent to list all departments in your organization, making it easy to see how your company is structured.
Will this help me find contacts from past events?
Absolutely. If you have scanned cards from past summits or conferences, your agent can find those specific people and their current titles for you.
How do I get my contact tags into my AI client?
Once you connect the Connector, your agent can see all your organization tags. You can then ask it to find leads or contacts associated with specific categories like 'VIP' or 'Vendor'.
Can I see who else in my company uses Sansan?
Yes, the Connector can list all registered Sansan users in your organization, which is helpful for internal audits or checking who has access to the network.
Can my AI agent find a specific business card by just a first name?
Yes. Ask the agent to run the search_biz_cards capability with the contact's name. It will look through all digitized cards in the shared corporate database and return the matching profiles, including their company, department, and direct contact details.
Is it possible to list only contacts from a specific department?
Yes, you can ask your agent to first execute list_departments to view your organizational structure, and then cross-reference those entities with the cards via natural prompts to summarize card acquisitions per department.
What is the difference between business cards and persons?
Business Cards are individual scan snapshots of physical cards acquired over time. A 'Person' represents the consolidated identity created when multiple updated cards from the same individual are merged. You can query both views via list_biz_cards or list_persons.
