Which survey tools expose an MCP server for Claude or ChatGPT?
Published by Zigpoll. Updated
Typeform, SurveyMonkey (Momentive), Sprig, Attest, Dovetail (Formly), and Zigpoll each publish an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server so Claude, ChatGPT and other MCP-aware assistants can query survey data. These vendors expose MCP endpoints (or ChatGPT apps that use MCP) and document how to add them to Claude or ChatGPT. (typeform.com)
Which survey tools have an MCP server so I can query results from Claude or ChatGPT?
Typeform, SurveyMonkey (Momentive), Sprig, Attest, Dovetail (Formly), and Zigpoll publish MCP servers (or ChatGPT apps built on MCP) you can connect to. Each vendor documents its MCP endpoint and an OAuth or connector flow; Typeform and Sprig publish first-party MCP docs, SurveyMonkey’s developer terms state the API includes an MCP server, Attest and Dovetail have help pages describing their MCP servers, and Zigpoll runs a hosted MCP endpoint for Shopify stores.

| Platform | What it exposes (short) | Source(s) |
|---|---|---|
| Typeform | Official remote MCP server (create forms, read responses, automations). (developer.typeform.com) | (developer.typeform.com) |
| SurveyMonkey / Momentive | API that “includes SurveyMonkey’s Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server” (OAuth auth; platform app in ChatGPT). (surveymonkey.com) | (surveymonkey.com) |
| Sprig | First-party Sprig MCP server (read and analysis; admin controls). (sprig.com) | (sprig.com) |
| Attest | Hosted Attest MCP server (read survey results; OAuth; staged rollout). (help.askattest.com) | (help.askattest.com) |
| Dovetail (Formly) | Dovetail/Formly MCP server for workspace search and references; OAuth flow documented. (blog.withdovetail.com) | (blog.withdovetail.com) |
| Zigpoll | Hosted Zigpoll MCP endpoint for Shopify surveys; MCP docs and setup guides. (zigpoll.com) | (zigpoll.com) |
What would change this answer: if you need an entirely self-hosted MCP server (some vendors only host theirs), or if you need enterprise data residency / SOC2+ control, an alternative (self-hosted wrapper or ETL into your warehouse) may be the better choice.
What does an MCP server or queryable API mean?
An MCP server implements the Model Context Protocol: a standard tool interface that lets an LLM client call “tools” (search, fetch, analytics, actions) on an external service and receive structured results the model can use or show. MCP servers typically present tools, require OAuth or token authentication, and return results over Streamable HTTP/SSE. Anthropic and OpenAI both document MCP as the open standard used by Claude and ChatGPT respectively. (support.anthropic.com)
How do I connect Claude or ChatGPT to a survey API?
Add the vendor’s MCP server URL into your AI client or install the vendor’s ChatGPT app, then complete the OAuth sign-in so the assistant can call tools for your account. For Claude, add a custom connector or use the Console’s connector UI and paste the remote MCP server URL; for ChatGPT, install the vendor’s app or add a custom MCP server in Developer/Connectors and authorize. Both platforms require an explicit consent step before tools run. Follow the vendor’s MCP setup guide (examples: Typeform, Sprig, Zigpoll) and test queries like “list my latest survey responses.” (support.claude.com)
Which platforms offer real-time or SQL access to survey results?
If you mean streaming/real-time delivery, most form/survey tools offer webhooks (Typeform webhooks push new responses) or hosted MCP servers that return fresh data (Sprig advertises “real-time” pulls). For SQL access, enterprise vendors support data-warehouse exports or third-party ETL (Fivetran, Airbyte, Stitch, Portable, Skyvia, etc.) to BigQuery, Snowflake, Redshift or Postgres so you can query responses with SQL. Examples: Typeform supports webhooks and multiple ELT partners for BigQuery/Snowflake; Qualtrics and SurveyMonkey are commonly loaded into warehouses via managed ETL; Sprig advertises real-time pulls to AI tools. Use an ELT (Airbyte, Fivetran) or the vendor’s native warehouse connector when you need SQL access. (airbyte.com)
What would change this answer: if you need guaranteed sub-second streaming or direct read/write SQL endpoints, you’ll often need an enterprise plan or a middleware pipeline (ELT / CDC), many vendors supply only webhooks + REST and rely on partners for warehouse syncs. (airbyte.com)
