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.

Connection URL

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.

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.

ChatGPT

Before you start: custom MCP servers are web only and are available on Pro, Plus, Business, Enterprise, and Education accounts. Not on Free. On Business only admins and owners can add one; on Enterprise and Edu an admin grants access first under Permissions & Roles → Connected Data.

1. Turn on developer mode. Open Settings → Security and login and turn on Developer mode.
2. Go to ChatGPT Plugins and select the + button to create a developer-mode app for a remote MCP server.
3. Give it a name and description, for example Chaiz.
4. Enter the MCP server URL including the /mcp path: https://mcp.chaiz.com/mcp.
5. Set authentication to No authentication. Anonymous read-only servers are explicitly supported, and Chaiz holds the partner credentials server-side.
6. Finish creating the app. Where the flow offers a tool scan, run it and confirm the four Chaiz search and lookup tools are listed before saving.

On a workspace plan the new app starts as a draft labelled Dev, and an admin has to publish it before anyone else in the workspace can use it. Admins manage this under Workspace settings → Plugins, and per-app permissions under Workspace settings → Apps.

To use it in a chat, pick Chaiz from the composer's + / tools menu for that conversation, or name it in your prompt. It is per-conversation, not a global switch.

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 Introduction.
