ContentStudio MCP Server
ContentStudio now provides its own MCP (Model Context Protocol) server, making it possible to connect ContentStudio directly into AI assistants and automation frameworks. This allows you to schedule and manage your content seamlessly without switching platforms.

The MCP Server is a backend service that allows different apps to connect with ContentStudio using an API key. With it, clients like Claude, Copilot, and LangChain can fetch data, create content, and schedule posts — all from one place.
Where You Can Use It
The ContentStudio MCP Server works with a variety of AI assistants and automation frameworks, making it flexible for different workflows.
- Bring AI-powered publishing tools into Outlook, Teams, and other 365 apps.
- Deploy actions and automations without switching platforms.
- Use LangChain or LlamaIndex for advanced AI pipelines.
