Connect Claude, ChatGPT or another MCP client to Wispr Flow

Last updated: September 19, 2026

Available on: Mac and Windows. Requires Notetaker and MCP access on your Wispr Flow account.

Connect Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini or another MCP-compatible client to search meeting notes without copying transcripts. Access is read-only: clients cannot create, edit or delete meetings or notes, or read dictation history or Notetaker chat history.

Before connecting

  • Use the account that holds your notes. Personal and work accounts have separate content. Authorize the correct Wispr Flow account in your browser.

  • Cloud access: If Flow prompts you to enable Cloud Sync, follow the prompt. The setting is labelled Dictation cloud storage in Settings and Private Cloud Sync in hub prompts. Organization policies may lock it; see data and privacy preferences.

  • Organization policies: Notetaker, cloud access and MCP are separate controls; enabling one does not override the others. MCP defaults on; solo accounts have no organization MCP policy. Turning off organization Notetaker blocks new recordings, not existing MCP reads; retention still applies.

  • HIPAA: Personal or organization HIPAA BAAs block meeting, calendar and account-info access, regardless of cloud storage. Review managing a signed BAA with the account owner or admin; revocation lifts only that agreement's restriction, not an organization's separate BAA.

Connect your client

Note: Email-and-password sign-ins cannot currently complete MCP authorization. Only Google, Apple, Microsoft and enterprise SSO sign-ins work. Finish browser sign-in within 5 minutes.

Authorization is account-wide and includes existing content, without per-meeting consent. No API key or token is needed.

  1. Open Wispr Flow Settings → MCP.

Claude, ChatGPT or Gemini

The connection page opens in your default browser; Gemini opens gemini.google.com/apps.

  1. Choose Add to Claude, Add to ChatGPT or Add to Gemini.

Claude: enable Wispr Flow for the conversation using the chat box's + → Connectors → Wispr Flow toggle. On a Claude Team or Enterprise plan, an Owner may need to add the connector for the organization first; then connect from Claude's Settings → Connectors.

Another MCP client

The read-only Server URL is https://api.wisprflow.ai/connect/mcp; paste it exactly, without a trailing slash.

  1. Copy the URL under All other apps: by clicking the field or Copy server URL.

  2. Add that URL as a remote MCP server in your client.

The location varies; follow the client's documentation.

Authorize and test

  1. Sign in with your Wispr Flow account and authorize access.

  2. Confirm Wispr Flow appears as authorized in your client's MCP server or connector list.

  3. Start a chat and ask about a recent meeting. Check that the answer refers to your actual meetings.

What the connection can read

Clients can read meeting summaries, notes, transcripts, attendees and tasks; Scratchpad notes; Google Calendar events and linked recordings; upcoming meetings with available pre-reads; recurring meetings; shared-note links you can access; and account identity. They can also resolve calendar or conference links to events.

Shared links still require your own meeting-access permissions. Transcripts require ownership or an email invitation, plus the owner's organization allowing transcript sharing; domain/team or anyone-with-link access gives summaries only.

When enabled for your account, Scratchpad access can work without Cloud Sync, including for HIPAA-covered accounts; organization MCP and Scratchpad restrictions still apply.

Warning: Retention deletes transcripts and audio, not summaries, My Notes or tasks. Deleted transcripts are unavailable through MCP and cannot be restored by an offline device. Retention deletion starts only when you or your organization sets a retention period. Deleting a meeting is permanent; MCP cannot restore it. See meeting-data retention.

Manage connections

Clients read from your Flow account, so Flow does not need to stay open locally. Each new client needs browser authorization. You can use the same Server URL with multiple clients; remove Wispr Flow from a client's connector settings whenever you want to disconnect it.

After connecting, a client's card offers … → Reconnect, which reopens its connection page; Flow has no disconnect control. Cards reflect client-reported identity—Codex shares ChatGPT's card—not proof of current access or revocation. Return to Flow to refresh the display; refreshes can be 30 seconds apart.

Changes to MCP, Notetaker, HIPAA or cloud access can take a few minutes to apply, including revocation.

Fix connection or missing-note problems

Connected, but no matching notes

Search matches titles, summaries and notes, not transcripts; attendee-email filters only find recordings linked to calendar events.

  1. Check the authorized account, cloud access and the connector's per-chat toggle.

  2. Try a specific meeting or date.

Meetings recorded while Cloud Sync was off can remain missing after re-enabling it. Transcripts must be requested explicitly; long notes and transcripts arrive in portions, while summaries are complete.

Connection cancelled or authorization error

Expired access prompts reconnection. An expired or failed setup attempt can end at the dashboard without connecting; restart from the client.

  1. Connect again and approve access in the browser.

  2. Check the client's connector settings for the exact error.

MCP settings can be hidden while access is loading or unavailable, without an explanation.

What you see

What to do

“Cloud Sync must be enabled to use this feature.”

Enable it if unlocked; otherwise request access and contact your admin, since requests do not change policy.

“This feature is not available for HIPAA-covered accounts.”

Review the BAA guidance under Before connecting.

MCP settings hidden, or “MCP access has been disabled by your organization's administrator.”

Ask an admin to check MCP and Notetaker access; only admins can change organization policy.

“Scratchpad access has been disabled by your organization's administrator.”

Ask your admin to check Scratchpad access.

Too many requests

Pause repeated queries, wait about a minute, then retry.

Enterprise IP-allowlist denial

Connect from an approved network or contact your admin, then retry.

Banned or deleted account

Contact support.

For temporary service unavailability, try again later; this can happen without exceeding a limit. If an error says retrying with the same inputs will not help, contact support; other tools may still work.

After recovery, repeat the meeting test above; if it still fails, contact support.

Still need help?

For a persistent failure, contact support with the AI client, platform, failing step and exact error. Include your device and what you tried.

Report an issue automatically attaches app logs; you do not need to paste them. You can attach one image up to 10 MB.
