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

Claude Code
In your terminal
- 1Add the server:claude mcp add chartlink --transport http https://chartlink.app/mcp
- 2Run
/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
- 1Make 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.
- 2Make 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"}]}}}' - 3Publish 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”.
