Vivid MCP: open a Vivid Business account from your AI chat

Vivid's MCP server lets you start a Vivid Business account from a chat: your AI app sends your company's details and gets back a link to finish onboarding with Vivid. Vivid Business is built for companies with a team that spends. ContextGate connects Vivid's own server to Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor and records each call, so you can see exactly what company details were sent to Vivid.

  • Activity keeps a record of each call made while the account was being opened.
