Chaiz MCP Server

The Chaiz MCP Server lets any AI assistant search and quote vehicle service contracts (VSCs / extended warranties) in a normal conversation. Ask "VSC for my 2020 Toyota Tundra" and the assistant returns live plan data and quotes — real prices, coverage levels, and Chaiz expert ratings — so you can compare plans and continue to checkout on chaiz.com.

It speaks the Model Context Protocol (MCP), the open standard for connecting AI assistants to external tools, so the same endpoint works across ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and any other MCP-capable host.

No API key required. The MCP server connects anonymously — Chaiz holds the partner credentials server-side. Just point your assistant at the connection URL below and start asking for quotes.

Connection URL

Environment URL
Production https://mcp.chaiz.com/mcp
UAT https://mcp-uat.chaiz.com/mcp

The server uses stateless streamable HTTP, the standard remote MCP transport. No authentication, no installation, no local process — it runs on chaiz.com and your assistant connects directly.

What you can do

Once connected, your assistant gains these capabilities. They are read-only — the server returns quotes but never writes data or charges anything; purchasing always happens on chaiz.com via a checkout link.

Capability What it does
Search by make / model / year "Warranty for my 2019 Honda Accord"
Search by VIN Most accurate — the 17-character VIN is decoded to the exact vehicle
Search by license plate "Quotes for plate ABC1234 in CA"
Vehicle lookup Resolves fuzzy input ("toyotta tundre" → Toyota Tundra) and lists supported makes and models

Each search returns multiple providers as structured plan data. For every plan the assistant receives the provider and plan name, the monthly and total price and down payment, the coverage term and mileage, the coverage level (Basic / Basic Plus / Best), the Chaiz expert rating and verdict, highlight badges, and links to the full plan details and checkout pages on chaiz.com. Because the results come back as structured data, the assistant can compare, sort, and filter plans for you — by Chaiz expert rating (the default), by lowest or highest price, or by recommended order.

Add it to your AI assistant

Hosts that support MCP Apps (SEP-1865) — ChatGPT today, with Claude and others as their support matures — render an interactive plan comparison. On every other host you still get the full results as a formatted plan summary in the assistant's reply.

ChatGPT

  1. Open Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector.
  2. Name it Chaiz and set the URL to https://mcp.chaiz.com/mcp.
  3. Leave authentication as None and save.
  4. In a chat, enable the Chaiz connector and ask for a quote.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http chaiz https://mcp.chaiz.com/mcp

Claude.ai (web)

Open Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector, then enter the URL https://mcp.chaiz.com/mcp (no authentication).

Claude Desktop

Add the server to claude_desktop_config.json (macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json, Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json), then restart Claude Desktop:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "chaiz": {
      "url": "https://mcp.chaiz.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Cursor

Add the server to your mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "chaiz": {
      "url": "https://mcp.chaiz.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Any other MCP client

Connect over streamable HTTP to https://mcp.chaiz.com/mcp. The server is stateless and requires no authentication.

Example prompts

Once Chaiz is connected, try:

  • "VSC for my 2020 Toyota Tundra" — the assistant asks for the current mileage and state, then quotes plans.
  • "Get me warranty quotes for VIN 1FTFW1ET5DFC10312, 60k miles, in TX."
  • "Quotes for plate ABC1234 in CA, 45,000 miles."
  • "What makes do you cover?"
  • "Compare the cheapest and the highest-rated plan for a 2019 Honda Accord, 50k miles, FL."

How it works

The Chaiz MCP server is a thin, secure wrapper over the Chaiz Partner API. It exposes only the read-only search and lookup capabilities above, applies per-user rate limits to keep the service responsive, and identifies all traffic as AI-assistant traffic for analytics. Purchasing is always a link-out to chaiz.com — the server never collects payment or personal data from the chat.

Under the hood it runs the same plan searches documented in the API Reference, returning the lean, assistant-optimized response. Partners who want deeper, programmatic integration (orders, leads, async search, custom UI) should use the Partner API directly — start with the Overview.
