What is the LinkDeal MCP server?
Learn how the LinkDeal MCP server lets your AI assistant find leads, enrich contacts, and send to Slack hands-free.
Last updated: 8 August 2026
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a standard that lets AI assistants like Claude use external tools. LinkDeal provides an MCP server with 18 tools, giving your AI the ability to prospect on your behalf.
What MCP enables
With the LinkDeal MCP server connected, your AI can:
- Find leads using Post Engagement or ICP Search
- Enrich contacts with email addresses and phone numbers
- Unlock recent posts to see what leads are posting about
- Send leads to Slack individually or in bulk
- Check your credits and subscription status
- View search history and saved searches
All through natural language conversation.
Example interactions
Finding leads:
"Find people who reacted to posts from Gong.io in the last week"
Enriching contacts:
"Enrich the top 5 leads from that search"
Checking status:
"How many credits do I have left?"
Sending to Slack:
"Send all the VP-level leads to Slack"
Who is it for?
The MCP server is ideal for:
- Power users who want to automate repetitive prospecting
- AI-first teams building workflows with Claude or other assistants
- Developers integrating LinkDeal into custom applications
If you prefer the visual interface, you do not need MCP. The web dashboard does everything the MCP server does, just with clicks instead of chat.
