Meridian AI MCP

Connect your AI agent to your firm’s Meridian workspace — and ask it anything about your pipeline, relationships, and documents in natural language.

Meridian AI MCP is a remote Model Context Protocol server. The Model Context Protocol is an open standard that lets AI agents securely connect to outside systems. This server connects your AI tool of choice to your Meridian AI CRM, so it can search across your deals, companies, people, meetings, emails, notes, documents, and reports on your behalf.

What is Meridian AI MCP?

Meridian AI is the CRM and deal-management platform built for private markets investment professionals. Meridian AI MCP exposes that workspace to AI agents through a single secure connection. Once connected, your agent can answer questions, pull context, and assemble briefs straight from your live CRM data — no copy-pasting, no exports, no switching tabs.

It works with any MCP-compatible client, including Claude (Desktop and web), ChatGPT, Cursor, and other tools that support remote MCP servers.

Why use Meridian AI MCP?

• One-click, secure sign-in — Connect with your firm’s existing single sign-on (SSO). There are no API keys to generate, store, or rotate.
• Ask in plain language — Query your pipeline the way you’d ask a colleague (“What’s the latest IC decision on Project Atlas?”) instead of clicking through filters.
• Your whole workspace, in one place — Pipeline, relationships, communications, and documents, all through a single connection.
• Semantic search built in — Notes, emails, and document contents are searchable by meaning, not just keywords, so you find the right passage even when you don’t know the exact wording.
• Your permissions are inherited — The AI agent sees exactly what you see in Meridian, scoped to your organization, respecting private meetings, note access, and email visibility rules.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

1. A Meridian AI account at your firm. You’ll use the same login you use for the Meridian web app.
2. An MCP-compatible AI client (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible AI client).

Connection & authentication

Meridian AI MCP authenticates with OAuth 2.0 and your firm’s single sign-on — the same identity you already use for Meridian. There are no API keys. When your client first connects, you’ll be redirected to a Meridian sign-in page and asked for your work email. Approve the request, and you’re connected.

2. Find the Meridian connector and click Connect to start sign-in.
3. Enter your work email, complete authentication flow, and approve access.
4. The Meridian tools are now available in your chats. Try "Who am I in Meridian?" to confirm.

Supported Tools

These tools are designed to read and compose (they cannot modify your Meridian data). The real power comes from combining them in a single prompt — for example, find a deal, pull its interaction timeline, and read the relevant passage of its CIM, all in one ask. The agent chains the calls for you.

Rate Limits

Requests are limited per authenticated user (not shared across your firm) using a token-bucket model — a steady sustained rate plus a small burst allowance for short spikes.

If you’re rate-limited:

• The server returns a standard MCP rate-limit error; wait a moment and retry.

Security Best Practices

Authentication

• Identity-bound — Every request runs as you, with the same organization scope and permissions you have in the app. A token issued for one firm can never read another firm’s data.
• Revoke access anytime — Sign out or end the session in your SSO or remove the connector in your AI client.

• Can’t connect? Ask your Meridian administrator to confirm that your account is active.
