Connect your AI

Make charts in your brand from your AI

Add chartlink to your AI app once and sign in. Then give it data in a chat: it makes the chart in your brand and hands you a link to it. No keys to copy, nothing to install.

Claude

claude.ai, and the Claude desktop and mobile apps

  1. 1
    Open Settings → Connectors and choose Add custom connector.
  2. 2
    Name it chartlink and paste this address:
    https://chartlink.app/mcp
  3. 3
    Choose Connect, sign in to chartlink (or make an account) and pick the workspace it works in.

Claude Code

In your terminal

  1. 1
    Add the server:
    claude mcp add chartlink --transport http https://chartlink.app/mcp
  2. 2
    Run /mcp, choose chartlink and sign in in the browser.

API and automation

Applications, scripts, pipelines and agents that make HTTP requests and cannot sign in

  1. 1
    Make an API key in the studio under Workspace → API keysand keep it where your code keeps secrets — an environment variable or your CI's secret store, never in a chat.
  2. 2
    Make a chart. It comes back as a private draft with a preview and a link to it in the studio:
    curl -X POST https://chartlink.app/api/assets \
      -H "Authorization: Bearer $CHARTLINK_API_KEY" \
      -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
      -d '{"type": "line",
           "data": {"columns": [{"id": "year", "type": "date"}, {"id": "sales", "type": "number"}],
                    "rows": [[2022, 4], [2023, 7], [2024, 9]]},
           "config": {"title": {"text": "Sales grew three years in a row"},
                      "encoding": {"x": {"column": "year"}, "series": [{"column": "sales"}]}}}'
  3. 3
    Publish it when it should be public: POST /api/assets/{id}/publish gives the page, the embed code and the image. Everything else is in the API reference (and as OpenAPI); agents start from llms.txt.

Another AI app that takes MCP connectors with a sign-in: add a remote MCP server with the address https://chartlink.app/mcp and sign in when it asks.

After connecting

In a chat where chartlink is turned on, paste a table or attach a file and ask:

Make a chart of this in my chartlink brand, with the source. Show me the preview and the studio link.
  • Your brand. Every account starts with one, a clean starter look, so the first chart works right away. Make it yours later from screenshots, a few words or your website — ask your AI, or use Set up with AI in the studio.
  • Several brands?Name the one you want (“in my Newsletter brand”). Without a name, your workspace's default brand is used.
  • Private until you publish.A new chart is a draft only your workspace sees, in the brand's Charts in the studio. Ask your AI to publish it when you want a link or embed code.
Need help?
  • Can't find Connectors in Claude? It is under Settings → Connectors. On a Team or Enterprise plan, an owner may have to allow custom connectors first.
  • Signed in to the wrong workspace, or the sign-in failed? Remove the chartlink connector and add it again; you pick the workspace again when you sign in.
  • Your AI does not use chartlink? Check that chartlink is turned on in that chat, and mention it by name: “in my chartlink brand”.
