How the connection helps

You ask your AI

“Find or build a workflow that turns a web page into a short briefing.”

Your AI connects to FlowDot

It can search for a workflow, build the steps, and run them with your inputs.

What you can keepA workflow you can run again

Use a different page next time, or give it a simple app interface.

Illustrative example. You choose what to connect and allow.

Build a workflow that fetches a web page on the server and returns its title and links. Run it on https://www.grants.gov. Then publish a small app with a URL box that runs it.

A connection, in plain English

MCP is how your AI app talks to FlowDot.

It stands for Model Context Protocol: a standard way to connect AI apps to tools and services. Set up the connection once, then ask your AI to use FlowDot in the same chat you already use.

Prefer to start in a browser? Use the FlowDot agent without setting up an MCP connection.

Start with something useful

What could you ask your AI to do?

"Find or build a workflow that summarizes my meeting notes."

Connect a series of steps, save it to your account, and run it again with new notes.

"Turn that workflow into an app with a form."

Give a saved process an interface you can open and use again. A free account is required to run a published app.

"Keep this project brief in my knowledge base and find it in my next session."

Your documents stay outside the chat. Your AI can search them from another session or another connected app.

"Find or build a toolkit that connects to Google Sheets."

A toolkit is a set of tools your AI can use with a connected service. Connect your own account or credentials when needed.

These are example requests. Your AI can look for existing resources or help build what you need.

A one-time connection

Get connected in three steps.

  1. Create your free FlowDot account.

    Sign up or log in using this page. We take you to MCP Tokens in your account settings.

  2. Create a private connection key.

    FlowDot calls this a token. Choose what it can access. Keep it private, like a password; you can revoke it later.

  3. Add FlowDot to your AI app.

    Your token page provides setup instructions with your key filled in. Choose your app below to see the format it uses.

Before you start: use an AI app listed below on your computer. These instructions use npx, a command included with Node.js, so Node.js must be installed. You will paste a command in a terminal or edit a settings file.

Choose your AI app for setup details

Claude Code
claude mcp add flowdot -e FLOWDOT_API_TOKEN=fd_mcp_your_token -- npx -y @flowdot.ai/mcp-server
Codex
codex mcp add flowdot --env FLOWDOT_API_TOKEN=fd_mcp_your_token -- npx -y @flowdot.ai/mcp-server
Cursor, Windsurf and Claude Desktop
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "flowdot": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@flowdot.ai/mcp-server"],
      "env": { "FLOWDOT_API_TOKEN": "fd_mcp_your_token" }
    }
  }
}

Cursor reads this from .cursor/mcp.json in your project. Windsurf and Claude Desktop read it from their MCP config file.

VS Code
{
  "servers": {
    "flowdot": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@flowdot.ai/mcp-server"],
      "env": { "FLOWDOT_API_TOKEN": "fd_mcp_your_token" }
    }
  }
}

Put this in .vscode/mcp.json.

The token in every example is a placeholder. Your token page shows the Claude Code command and the JSON block with your token filled in.

After connecting, ask your AI: “Show me what I can do with FlowDot.” If FlowDot is not listed among its available tools, check that you used your own token and added the connection in the app you are using. Read the full connection guide.

What it costs

Free, $0

5 workflow runs a day / 10 toolkit calls a day / No card

Creator, $19 a month

500 workflow runs a month / 200 toolkit calls a day

A workflow run carries out a saved series of steps. A toolkit call uses one connected tool. Model usage may also use FlowDot credits or your own provider key. See plans and pricing for details.

Before you connect

Do I need to know how to code? You can describe tasks in ordinary language. The initial connection does involve pasting a command or a settings block on your computer. You can also start with the FlowDot browser agent using the link above.

Claude Code can already run code. What does this add?

A place off your machine. The workflow is saved to your account, runs on FlowDot's servers, and can be run again by Claude, by a published app, or from the editor in your browser.

Can I control the token?

You choose its permissions when you create it. You can revoke it at any time.

Do connectors need other accounts?

The Grants.gov search works without keys on a new free account. Other connectors need your credentials for that service.

Does it work outside Claude Code?

Yes. It is a standard MCP server started with npx. Codex has its own add command. Cursor, Windsurf and Claude Desktop use a JSON config block, and VS Code uses the same block under a servers key.

Who built it

FlowDot is built by one engineer, Elliot Mousseau, with 20+ years in software. He was lead engineer on a Phase II SBIR delivery for a US defense training simulation.
