Zapier MCP: 9,000+ apps behind one AI app connection

Zapier MCP is a hosted server that connects AI assistants to 9,000+ apps and 40,000+ actions through Zapier. ContextGate adds it to Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor next to your other connections, signed in with your Zapier account, so you can see each Zapier action an AI app runs and switch off any tool you'd rather it didn't call.

Watch what Zapier does on your behalf

  • Switch off a Zapier tool and it's hidden from your AI apps and refused if called.
  • Workspace policies check each call, so personal data headed to another app through Zapier can be hidden first.
  • Activity records every Zapier call, so an action run in another app can be traced back to the AI app call behind it.
