AI MCP

Kanna now supports the Model Context Protocol (MCP), an open standard that allows AI agents such as Claude to connect directly to your Kanna data. Rather than manually pulling reports or digging through project records, you can interact with your site information using natural language, letting AI do the heavy lifting so your team can focus on the work that matters.

Put Your Project Data to Work with AI

MCP acts as a bridge between AI tools and the data already living inside Kanna. Ask questions, generate reports and manage projects, all without leaving your AI environment or exporting a single spreadsheet.

What is MCP and Why Does It Matter?

The Model Context Protocol is an open standard, developed by Anthropic, that gives AI agents a structured, secure way to read and interact with external software platforms. Think of it as a universal connector: rather than building one-off integrations, MCP lets AI tools like Claude plug directly into Kanna and understand your project data in context. For industries like construction, utilities, and manufacturing, where information is scattered across reports, photos, and schedules, this kind of direct AI access is a genuine step forward in operational efficiency.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the requirements to use Kanna's MCP integration with Claude?

To use Kanna's AI MCP integration, you will need an active Kanna account and your own paid Claude subscription. Please note that MCP connectivity is only available on paid Claude plans. If you are unsure which plan is right for you, our team is happy to help point you in the right direction.

Is Kanna's MCP integration secure?

Yes. Security is a core part of how Kanna is built, and the MCP integration is no different. AI agents only access data within your Kanna account through authenticated, controlled connections. Your project data is never shared outside of your account environment, and all existing Kanna security features, including two-factor authentication, device restrictions, audit logs and IP address restrictions, remain fully in place. If you have specific security or compliance requirements, please get in touch with our team to discuss.

Is the AI MCP feature available to all Kanna users?

The MCP integration is live now and available to Kanna customers. New capabilities are being added to the integration over the coming weeks. If you would like to know more or need help getting started, please get in touch with our team.
