Documents and answers
Search documents, open a file, and ask Findable a question that comes back with the source document.
- “Find the latest fire strategy for Building A.”
- “What does the ventilation O&M manual say about filter changes?”
Works with Claude & ChatGPT
Use Findable from Claude, ChatGPT and Microsoft Copilot
Findable's MCP server lets the AI assistant your team already uses search your building documentation, answer questions with sources, and look up tasks and red flags. Everyone signs in with their own Findable account, so the assistant sees exactly what they can see in Findable, and nothing more.
Developer docs: MCP server
What is the Findable MCP server?
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that lets AI assistants use tools in other systems. The Findable MCP server is Findable's connector for it: add the server URL as a custom connector in Claude, ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot Studio, Cursor or another MCP client, sign in with Findable, and the assistant can work with your buildings and documents in the middle of a conversation.

What you can ask
Your building documentation, inside the conversation
The assistant picks the right Findable tool for each question. A few examples of what teams ask:
Buildings and portfolios
Find buildings, portfolios, projects and collections by name, and see what sits in each.
- “Which buildings are in our London office portfolio?”
- “List the documents in the handover project for Block C.”
Tasks and routines
Read tasks, routines and checklists. Where enabled, the assistant can propose a change that you approve in Findable.
- “Which maintenance tasks are overdue this month?”
Red flags
Read the red flag snapshot and its items: the documentation gaps Findable has found.
- “Which red flags are still open for Building B?”
SharePoint
Check the SharePoint sync status and list the documents synced from SharePoint.
- “Is the SharePoint sync for the Manchester portfolio up to date?”
Connect Claude & ChatGPT
Three steps, nothing to install
Server URL
https://mcp.findable.ai
- Open the connector settings in your assistant. In Claude and ChatGPT you add a custom connector; in Microsoft Copilot Studio you add a Model Context Protocol tool.
- Paste the Findable server URL.
- Sign in to Findable when prompted and approve access. Everyone connects with their own account.
Using Claude Code? Run:
claude mcp add --transport http findable https://mcp.findable.aiStep-by-step guides for each client are in the developer docs. Developer docs: MCP server
Security and access
The assistant sees what you can see. Nothing more.
Sign in with OAuth
People connect with their own Findable sign-in through OAuth 2.1 with PKCE. There are no shared API keys or client secrets to hand out.
Your permissions, not the assistant’s
Every tool call is checked against the same permissions as the Findable app, so an assistant only reaches the buildings and documents its user can open.
Controlled by your admins
Administrators decide what each person can see in Findable access control, and the assistant sees nothing more. Connected assistants can be revoked from Findable settings at any time.
Changes wait for approval
Most tools only read. Where changes to tasks and routines are enabled, the assistant prepares them and they run only after someone approves them in Findable.
Common questions
Which AI assistants work with Findable?
Any assistant that supports remote MCP servers with OAuth sign-in. That includes Claude on the web, Claude Desktop and Claude Code, ChatGPT connectors, Microsoft Copilot Studio through its native MCP connector, and Cursor. In assistants that support MCP Apps, such as Claude, many results appear as interactive cards; elsewhere the same data arrives as text.
Can the assistant see documents I do not have access to?
No. The assistant acts as the person who signed in. Every request is checked against that person’s Findable permissions, so it can only find buildings, documents and tasks they can already open in Findable.
Who processes the answers?
Findable returns the result of each tool call to the assistant, and the AI provider behind the assistant processes it under your organisation’s agreement with that provider. Choose an assistant and plan that meet your organisation’s data requirements.
How do we turn it on?
There is nothing to switch on. Anyone with access to an organisation, portfolio, building, project or collection in Findable can connect: they add the server URL https://mcp.findable.ai in their assistant and sign in. What the assistant can reach follows that person’s existing access.
