Connect to the Zocks MCP Server

Learn how to connect your AI tool to the Zocks MCP server

Use the Zocks MCP server to bring your meeting intelligence directly into Claude. This lets you ask open-ended questions about client conversations, surface insights from conversations, and interact with Zocks data in the AI tools you already use.

Use cases

The Zocks MCP server makes your client intelligence available directly inside your AI tools. You can ask natural questions and get synthesized answers grounded in your actual meeting data.

With the Zocks MCP, you can:

  • Surface a client's motivators, concerns, and goals across all past meetings

  • Retrieve everything discussed with a household on any topic over a given time period

  • Score and evaluate your most recent advisor meetings

  • Identify financial planning gaps for any household

  • Track client sentiment and engagement trends over time

  • Scan meeting transcripts for compliance and suitability concerns

  • Identify referral opportunities hidden in client conversations

  • Build discovery talk tracks and coaching tools from real advisor meetings

  • And more!

How it works

The Zocks MCP server is a remotely hosted service that makes your firm's meeting intelligence available to any AI client that supports the Model Context Protocol. When you ask your AI tool a question about a client or meeting, the AI tool recognizes that it needs Zocks data, queries through MCP, and responds using your actual transcripts and AI-generated summaries.

When connected, the server:

  • Authenticates users via OAuth 2.0 through your Zocks login - meaning no passwords shared with AI tools

  • Provides access only to meetings and data the authenticated user is already authorized to see in Zocks

  • Allows the AI to interpret your question naturally while Zocks supplies the grounded, sourced meeting data

Note: The AI handles question interpretation and language generation. Zocks provides the underlying intelligence. This means you can ask open-ended questions like "What did the Johnson family discuss about college planning?".

Prerequisites

Before any user in your organization can connect to Zocks' MCP server:

  • Access must be enabled in Zocks. Follow steps described in this article.

  • Each connecting user must have an active Zocks account with access to the relevant meetings.

  • Your AI tool must support OAuth 2.0 authentication and Streamable HTTP transport. (The AI tools mentioned in this article, such as Claude and ChatGPT, all support OAuth 2.0.)

Connect your AI tool to Zocks MCP

Claude.ai and Claude for Desktop

For both claude.ai and Claude for Desktop, an Admin (Claude Admin, not Zocks Admin) must first add Zocks as a connector before other Claude users in the organization can connect.

Admin setup (one-time):

  1. Select your profile icon in the bottom-left corner of Claude, then select Admin settings.

  2. Open the Connectors tab, then select Browse connectors at the bottom of the list.

  3. Search for Zocks in the search box and select it.

  4. Select Connect. This adds Zocks to the list of available connectors for your organization.

User setup (each user connects their own account):

  1. Select your profile icon in the bottom-left corner of Claude, then select Settings.

  2. Open the Connectors tab.

  3. Next to the Zocks connector, select Connect.

  4. If prompted, sign in to your Zocks account, then select Allow to grant Claude access to your Zocks data.

  5. You are redirected to the Connectors page, where the Zocks connector displays with a Configure option. Select this to view each MCP tool available and choose whether to set tools to Always allow or Needs approval. By default, tools are set to Needs approval, which means Claude will ask for your confirmation before running a Zocks query.

Tip: Setting frequently-used tools to Always allow makes your workflow faster. You can change this at any time from the Connectors settings page.

ChatGPT

Zocks is available in the ChatGPT app directory. Available on ChatGPT Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise, and Edu plans.

Admin setup - Business plans (one-time)

Apps are enabled by default on Business plans, so Zocks should already be available to your users. To confirm or manage it:

  1. Go to Workspace Settings → Apps.

  2. Select the Enabled tab and confirm Zocks is listed. If it is not, open the Directory tab, find Zocks, and select Enable.

  3. Optionally, select the more options menu (•••) next to Zocks to review Action control settings or manage connected account domains.

Admin setup - Enterprise and Edu plans (one-time)

Apps are disabled by default on Enterprise and Edu plans. An admin must enable Zocks before anyone in the organization can connect.

  1. Go to Workspace Settings → Apps → Directory tab.

  2. Find Zocks and select Enable.

  3. Optionally configure before publishing:

    • Configure access to restrict Zocks to specific user groups via RBAC.

    • Configure actions to control which Zocks tools are available — we recommend enabling all tools.

  4. Select Publish. Zocks moves to the Enabled tab and becomes available to workspace users.

User setup (each user connects their own account)

  1. In ChatGPT, go to Settings → Apps.

  2. Find Zocks in the directory and select Connect.

  3. You will be redirected to the Zocks login page. Sign in with your Zocks account credentials, then select Allow to grant ChatGPT access to your Zocks data.

  4. You are redirected back to ChatGPT. Zocks is now connected and ready to use

To use Zocks in a conversation, type @Zocks in your prompt, or select the + button in the message composer and choose Zocks from the tools list.

Troubleshooting

  • Authentication error during sign-in - Verify you are signing in with the same account you use for Zocks. Check that your Zocks account is active and in good standing.

  • Claude returns no data for a client - Confirm you have access to that client's meetings in Zocks. MCP respects the same permissions as your Zocks account.

  • Claude asks for approval on every prompt - In your Connectors settings, set the relevant Zocks tools to Always allow.
