Read supporters, contributions, recurring donations, fundraising products and feed posts. Hosted by usefulapi: connect it to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or any MCP client.
Turn on the Givecloud connector, then ask in plain words. The AI picks the tools.
For fundraising teams using Givecloud for supporters and donations.
Search supporters by name or email, then inspect a matching record and its contact and consent status.
List contributions between UTC date boundaries and inspect an individual contribution’s amount, payment status and selected line items. Continue through result pages for the period.
List recurring profiles and inspect their donation amounts, status and next billing dates without exposing payment instruments.
Find fundraising products by code or name, then review their prices, fundraising goals and reported progress.
The login page asks for your Givecloud account and Givecloud personal access token.
Create a dedicated token in My Profile → Personal Access Tokens. Enter only the account label from account.givecloud.co; custom domains are not supported. API access must be enabled for your account. These tools only read data, but your token may allow broader actions: revoke it in Givecloud to disconnect. Requested donor identities, emails, donation amounts and other selected business data pass through UsefulAPI to your chosen AI client and model provider. Addresses, payment instruments, child/sponsorship records and arbitrary custom fields are omitted. Billing and usage are per account/token pair; rotating the token creates a separate identity. Independent integration, not an official Givecloud product.
Team and Enterprise: an Owner adds the connector for the organization first.
No Add custom MCP server option? It depends on your account or workspace settings: see OpenAI's guide.
Run this command, then run /mcp in Claude Code to log in:
Add to Cursor or add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"givecloud": {
"url": "https://givecloud.usefulapi.io/mcp"
}
}
} Add to VS Code or add this to .vscode/mcp.json:
{
"servers": {
"givecloud": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://givecloud.usefulapi.io/mcp"
}
}
} Run these commands. The second one opens the login page:
Windsurf, Cline, Zed and other MCP clients: add this URL as a remote MCP server (Streamable HTTP). The client then opens the login page in your browser.
Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your Givecloud account and Givecloud personal access token. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.
| Plan | Price | Limit |
|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | 50 tool calls / month |
| Proper account/token pair | $9/mo · $90/yr | 10,000 tool calls / month |
| Pro+per account/token pair | $39/mo · $390/yr | 100,000 tool calls / month |
Each paid plan covers this Givecloud server only. Ask your AI to run givecloud_upgrade and choose Pro or Pro+, billed monthly or yearly (it returns a Stripe Checkout link). If you already have Pro, ask to change it to Pro+. The change requires your confirmation, keeps your billing interval and charges the price difference for the rest of the period immediately. Cancel any time with givecloud_cancel_subscription: your paid plan continues to the end of the paid period, with no refund for the current period, and asking to resume the same plan with givecloud_upgrade before then undoes the cancel. Or write to [email protected].

No. usefulapi is an independent service. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by Givecloud. The server calls the Givecloud API with your own Givecloud access, so it sees only the data that your account can see.
Yes. In Claude, add this server's URL as a custom connector. In ChatGPT, add it as a custom MCP server in Plugins. Then log in once. Cursor, VS Code, Claude Code and Codex work too. See the setup steps.
The login page asks for your Givecloud account and Givecloud personal access token. See Before you connect for where to find them.
No. Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your Givecloud account and Givecloud personal access token. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.
The login stores them encrypted in the authorization grant of your connection. The server uses them to call the Givecloud API for you and to derive a private account id for usage metering. usefulapi does not show them on any page or in any reply. To stop all access, remove the connector and change or delete these credentials in Givecloud.
All 10 Givecloud tools are marked read-only.
The Free plan gives 50 tool calls / month. Pro costs $9/mo or $90/yr, with 10,000 tool calls / month. Pro+ costs $39/mo or $390/yr, with 100,000 tool calls / month. Each subscription covers this Givecloud server only. Cancel any time: your paid plan then runs to the end of the paid period. Run givecloud_usage_status to see how many calls you used.
Ask the AI to run givecloud_upgrade and choose Pro or Pro+, billed monthly or yearly: it returns a Stripe Checkout link. If you already have Pro, ask to change it to Pro+. After you confirm, your existing subscription changes in place, keeps its billing interval and charges the price difference for the rest of the period immediately. To cancel, run givecloud_cancel_subscription. Your paid plan continues to the end of the paid period.
Tell the AI what you wanted to do. It can send the request with givecloud_request_feature. We store the text with the server name, the type of AI client and the tool you tried, not with your account, and read every request when we plan new tools. You can send up to 5 requests per day.
Any client that supports remote MCP servers (Streamable HTTP) with OAuth login: Claude (web and desktop), Claude Code, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf and others.
This is a Model Context Protocol endpoint — meant to be connected from an AI client, not opened in a browser. An invalid_token response at the URL is the auth gate working as designed; clients authenticate automatically.
