You can now use @Pipedream MCP in OpenAI's @ChatGPT and newly announced Agent Builder! We've also recently shipped major updates include OAuth and static URL support, richer metadata, and a new user experience. Let’s break it down 🧵

we launched our open source MCP Chat by @pipedream on product hunt — you can chat directly with all the tools you use, and if you're building your own AI app, you can fork the repo or use it as a reference implementation. *it's free and open source* producthunt.com/products/piped…

@pipedream 🤝 @googleaidevs

@AnthropicAI @canva @figma @linear @NotionHQ @stripe Looks great. Where is @pipedream ? I’d love to connect all the other apps I use.

We've published a directory of apps and tools that connect to Claude with one click. Browse and connect Claude to @canva, @figma, @linear, @NotionHQ, @stripe, and more.

Connect to over 3000+ integrated apps and 10k+ tools instantly, thanks to @Pipedream Connect.

Now you can easily connect Claude Code to *all* of the tools you use: mcp.pipedream.com

@_rajnandan_ @mattshumer_ Do you expose a public API that Pipedream can connect to, or would it operate on private data?

@DylanSather @mattshumer_ If I have my company’s mcp, can I run it remotely using pipe dream.

What’s the simplest way for me to integrate tons of MCP servers quickly into a chatbot, and allow users to access them?

@mattshumer_ Absolutely, @droosevelt and @tod are the best people to talk to! I’ll let them take it

@DylanSather Can we chat? Would love to work together

@serglotz @ProductHunt @OpenAI Take a look at chat.pipedream.com

@ProductHunt Will the same be possible directly from the chat @OpenAI interface anytime soon?

Zapier just gave your AI the keys their new MCP lets agents trigger 30,000+ actions across 8,000 apps with real access, not hacks.

We have launched a new chat app, showcasing the ability to "chat with your software" powered by @Pipedream Connect and 1000s of MCP servers. Imagine if every AI chatbot had access to the software you use every day. 🧵 1/5 - with a link below!

@pipedream Urgent: I need to report a security incident. Could you please advise on the best way to contact your team?

We'd appreciate it if you could support two factor authentication @pipedream. It greatly improves account security. #SupportTwoFactorAuth

@alexanderisorax @martinmalindacz @logbeat_com @pipedream All the triggers (and actions) are here if you want to see examples: github.com/PipedreamHQ/pi…

@alexanderisorax @martinmalindacz @logbeat_com @pipedream For some apps, obviously it's simple to consume the events via webhook. For others as you know, you have to poll for events or handle other state, so we try to simplify all that and provide a consistent interface: we just emit new events to you.

There is a huuuge source of startup ideas that makers are missing out: niched-down Zapiers. Zapier is a builder, not a problem solution: - Learning curve is steep. - Takes time configuring and debugging. - Takes time maintaining (complicated workflows break often). - Requires users to be creative to invent workflows. Using Zapier for complex tasks is not easy. That gives us makers an infinite possibilities to create a business!!! 🤩 What you do is just pick one of the Zapier workflows and make a separate tool just for that purpose. Let's look at an example: my new project, the all-in-1 SaaS analytics (@logbeat_com). It integrates with all the possible event sources a startup founder is already using (see the screenshot), processes the data and sends digestible reports to the users. Can you do it in Zapier? Technically, yes. But you do not want to do it because it is too hard to create such a workflow from scratch. Perhaps you can use a Zapier template for that. But even if there is one, is it maintained? How to get updates for the template? What if it breaks after an update? What if API changed? The answer for all these questions: it will go bad 😁 And you will need to spend time maintaining it or hire a person to do that (oh, and you will also end up paying $$$ for events, whereas my SaaS is flat-priced). A niched-down service has none of those problems because the author of the tool takes care of users. The author knows the problems and knows what a user need. Users pay for solving their pain, not for getting access to a builder. Ah, and the sweetest part. A niched down tool is easier to grow 😋 Imagine this question on Reddit: "what do you do for all-in-1 SaaS analytics?”. Is “use Zapier” a good recommendation? No, because everybody knows Zapier and the person is asking for an advice because they do not want to mess up with Zapier. Is “use Logbeat” a good advice? Yes, because it solves the problem. People will share your app organically because it solves a problem. But they do not share Zapier because it just adds problems 😁 So if you need a SaaS idea, just open zapier(.)com/templates, navigate to the “featured” tab and pick any. All those are proven to have the demand (otherwise they’d not be featured). All those can be easily outcompeted by you because you will sell a solution, not a builder. Good luck!!!! 💪💪

@martinmalindacz @alexanderisorax @logbeat_com @pipedream @fakturoid @airtable That’s awesome. When you do build definitely let us know what you think and how we can help. We’re shipping a lot of new features!

@DylanSather @alexanderisorax @logbeat_com @pipedream id like to build a @fakturoid and @airtable sync service and Id totally use connect for that

@alexanderisorax @martinmalindacz @logbeat_com @pipedream Just curious - are you building your own data sources for those third-party apps or rolling your own?

@martinmalindacz @logbeat_com @pipedream I'm building the opposite because this is damn complicated 🤓

@martinmalindacz @alexanderisorax @logbeat_com @pipedream Thanks for the shout-out, Martin! Are you using Connect for anything? Would love to know what you think and what we can improve.

@alexanderisorax @logbeat_com @pipedream haha I get your point but I meant specifically their connect feature, so basically ability to use the ecosystem, OAuth handling and building your own UI pipedream.com/connect

@jxnlco Try @pipedream . All the no-code triggers and actions with a rich code execution environment. pipedream.com/docs
