What you can do with Mail Blaze in Claude and ChatGPT

For marketers and small businesses who send email campaigns with Mail Blaze.

Count subscribers on each mailing list

The AI lists your mailing lists with subscriber counts and opens one list for its settings, fields and segments.

Compare opens, clicks and bounces of campaigns

The AI reads report summaries of up to 50 campaigns, with sent, opens, clicks, bounces and unsubscribes, and compares them for you.

Check if an address is subscribed and what it opened

The AI finds a subscriber by email in a list and reads that person's email activity, with sends, opens, clicks and bounces.

Add subscribers or update their details

The AI adds one subscriber, or up to 100 in one request, to a mailing list, and updates a subscriber's name or custom fields. The list may send a confirmation email.

Changes data

Unsubscribe or resubscribe a person

The AI unsubscribes a subscriber who asked to stop, or resubscribes someone who asked to be added back.

Changes data

Schedule a campaign or send a transactional email

The AI schedules a campaign from a template to a list or segment, or sends one email to one recipient. Both leave once sent and cannot be recalled.

How do I connect Mail Blaze?

Before you connect

The login page asks for your Mail Blaze API public key.

Find it in Mail Blaze → your Profile menu → API Keys: create a key and copy the Public key. The key acts with full access to your account; you can revoke it there at any time. Your key is used only to call the Mail Blaze API on your behalf; it is never shown to anyone.

Claude claude.ai · Desktop

No Add custom MCP server option? It depends on your account or workspace settings: see OpenAI's guide.

Claude Code

Run this command, then run /mcp in Claude Code to log in:

claude mcp add --transport http mailblaze https://mailblaze.usefulapi.io/mcp

Cursor

Add to Cursor or add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mailblaze": {
      "url": "https://mailblaze.usefulapi.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Add to VS Code or add this to .vscode/mcp.json:

{
  "servers": {
    "mailblaze": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mailblaze.usefulapi.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Codex

Run these commands. The second one opens the login page:

codex mcp add mailblaze --url https://mailblaze.usefulapi.io/mcp
codex mcp login mailblaze

Other clients

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.

https://mailblaze.usefulapi.io/mcp

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 Mail Blaze API public key. 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.

Pricing

PlanPriceLimit
Free$050 tool calls / month
Proper API key$9/mo · $90/yr10,000 tool calls / month
Pro+per API key$39/mo · $390/yr100,000 tool calls / month

Each paid plan covers this Mail Blaze server only. Ask your AI to run mailblaze_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 mailblaze_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 mailblaze_upgrade before then undoes the cancel. Or write to [email protected].

  • Add a subscribermailblaze_add_subscriber
    WRITE, MAY SEND A CONFIRMATION EMAIL: add one subscriber to a mailing list. Depending on the list's settings Mail Blaze may send the person a confirmation (double opt-in) email. Only add people who agreed to receive your email. An email that is already on the list answers with a conflict error.
  • Add or update subscribers in bulkmailblaze_add_subscribers_bulk
    WRITE, MAY SEND CONFIRMATION EMAILS: add up to 100 subscribers to a mailing list in one request; an email already on the list is updated instead. Depending on the list's settings Mail Blaze may send confirmation emails. Only add people who agreed to receive your email.
  • Update a subscribermailblaze_update_subscriber
    WRITE: update a subscriber's name or custom fields. Pass the subscriber's current email (Mail Blaze requires it) plus only the values to change. Does not change subscription status.
  • Unsubscribe a subscribermailblaze_unsubscribe_subscriber
    WRITE: set a subscriber's status to unsubscribed so they receive no more campaigns from this list. By default Mail Blaze also adds the address to the account's local blacklist. Do this only when the person asked to stop (or a data-protection request requires it). The subscriber record is kept.
  • Resubscribe a subscribermailblaze_resubscribe_subscriber
    WRITE: set a previously unsubscribed subscriber back to subscribed so campaigns reach them again. Only do this when the person asked to be re-added (consent).
  • Create an email templatemailblaze_create_template
    WRITE: create an email template from HTML (the tool base64-encodes it). Mail Blaze requires the HTML to contain an unsubscribe link. Sends nothing.
  • Create and schedule a campaignmailblaze_create_campaign
    WRITE, SENDS EMAIL TO PEOPLE: create a campaign for a mailing list (or one of its segments) from an existing template and schedule it for send_at. Once it goes out it reaches every subscriber of the list or segment, may use sending credit and cannot be recalled. Confirm the list, segment, subject, template and send time with the user before calling. Needs a template uid (mailblaze_list_templates) and a list uid (mailblaze_list_lists).
  • Send a transactional emailmailblaze_send_transactional_email
    WRITE, SENDS ONE EMAIL NOW: send a single one-to-one email to one recipient through Mail Blaze. It leaves immediately, uses sending credit and cannot be recalled. Give either html (the body) or template_id (a transactional template, with merge_tags covering every tag in it), not both. Confirm the recipient and content with the user before calling. Not for bulk or marketing mail; use a campaign for that.

Your usefulapi plan · 4

  • Usage status (free-tier meter)mailblaze_usage_status
    Report the caller's current usage: the plan, calls used this month, the limit of the plan (the free monthly cap or the Pro fair use limit), remaining, and whether the limit is reached. Read-only; does not count against the meter.
  • Request a missing featuremailblaze_request_feature
    Tell usefulapi that the user needs something the MailBlaze tools cannot do yet (a missing tool, field or filter). Call it only when the user asks for something none of the tools can do, and tell the user that you send the request. Do not call it for errors or for normal requests. Do not include personal data, credentials or customer records. Stored with the product name and the client type (for example Claude or Cursor), without the user's account. At most 5 requests per day. Does not count against the meter.
  • Upgrade to Pro or Pro+mailblaze_upgrade
    Get a paid plan for MailBlaze (the free tier caps monthly usage). Pro: 10,000 tool calls a month, for normal use — plan "monthly" ($9/month) or "yearly" ($90/year, 2 months free). Pro+: 100,000 tool calls a month, for automations and heavy use — plan "plus" ($39/month) or "plus_yearly" ($390/year). Without a plan it returns both Pro and Pro+, each with a payment link, for the user to choose; with a plan, one link. An existing Pro subscription changes to Pro+ in place (needs confirm: true; the price difference for the rest of the period is charged at once). Cancel any time: the plan then runs to the end of the paid period, so it also suits a one-time job. A link opens Stripe Checkout in the browser; after payment the account upgrades automatically. Does not count against the meter.
  • Cancel the Pro subscriptionmailblaze_cancel_subscription
    Cancel the caller's MailBlaze Pro subscription at the end of the paid period (no refund for the current period; Pro continues until then, then the free tier applies). Requires confirm: true. Run mailblaze_upgrade later to undo the cancel before the period ends. Does not count against the meter.

FAQ

What can I do with Mail Blaze in Claude or ChatGPT?

Count subscribers on each mailing list. Compare opens, clicks and bounces of campaigns. Check if an address is subscribed and what it opened. Add subscribers or update their details. Unsubscribe or resubscribe a person. Schedule a campaign or send a transactional email. See what you can do for the details.

Is this an official Mail Blaze product?

No. usefulapi is an independent service. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by Mail Blaze. The server calls the Mail Blaze API with your own Mail Blaze access, so it sees only the data that your account can see.

Can I connect Mail Blaze to Claude or ChatGPT?

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.

What do I need to connect?

The login page asks for your Mail Blaze API public key. See Before you connect for where to find it.

Do I put my Mail Blaze key or an Authorization header in the client config?

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 Mail Blaze API public key. 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.

How do you keep my Mail Blaze credentials?

The login stores them encrypted in the authorization grant of your connection. The server uses them to call the Mail Blaze 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 Mail Blaze.

Can the AI change my Mail Blaze data?

Yes, if you approve it. 8 of the 26 Mail Blaze tools can create or change data. The other 18 are marked read-only. Most MCP clients ask you to approve a tool call before it runs.

What does it cost?

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 Mail Blaze server only. Cancel any time: your paid plan then runs to the end of the paid period. Run mailblaze_usage_status to see how many calls you used.

How do I subscribe or cancel?

Ask the AI to run mailblaze_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 mailblaze_cancel_subscription. Your paid plan continues to the end of the paid period.

What if a Mail Blaze tool that I need is missing?

Tell the AI what you wanted to do. It can send the request with mailblaze_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.

Which AI clients can I use?

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.
