Frequently asked questions

Apollo MCP is Apollo's native connector built on the Model Context Protocol (MCP) — the emerging standard for giving AI tools direct access to real-world data and live actions. It connects your Apollo account to AI platforms like Claude, ChatGPT, and Perplexity.

Once connected, you can search for prospects, enrich contacts, add them to sequences, and update your CRM — all from a single conversation inside your AI tool, without switching tabs or copy-pasting data.

Getting started takes three steps:

  1. Set up your Apollo account. Sign up or log in with a business email. Any plan qualifies, including free.

  2. Connect Apollo to your AI tool. Find Apollo in the connectors or plugins directory of Claude, ChatGPT, or Perplexity and authenticate via OAuth. No API key or developer setup required.

  3. Start working. Search for leads, enrich contacts, add them to sequences, and update records directly from your AI conversation.

In Claude, go to Customize > Connectors. Find Apollo.io and click Configure. Sign in with your Apollo account via OAuth — no API key needed. Once connected, you can search for prospects, enrich contacts, and run your full outbound workflow directly inside any Claude conversation.

Apollo MCP supports your full outbound GTM loop from a single conversation: search for people and companies that match your ICP, enrich contacts with verified emails and phone numbers, create or update contact and account records, and enroll prospects directly into outreach sequences.

All actions respect your Apollo account permissions and plan limits — what you can do in Apollo, you can do from your AI tool.

Any Apollo plan qualifies, including free. Your data access and action limits inside your AI tool mirror your Apollo account exactly. There's no separate MCP subscription or additional cost.

No. Apollo MCP is built for sales and GTM teams, not developers. Setup takes minutes through the connector or plugin directory in your AI tool. No code, no configuration files, and no API keys required. Authenticate with your existing Apollo account and start prospecting immediately.

The Apollo MCP server is the backend infrastructure that connects Apollo's platform to AI tools via the Model Context Protocol. For most users, the native connector available directly inside Claude, ChatGPT, and Perplexity is the recommended setup — no server configuration needed.

No. Apollo MCP is Apollo.io's connector for sales and GTM teams. It gives AI assistants like Claude and ChatGPT direct access to Apollo's B2B database for prospecting, enrichment, and outbound execution. The Apollo GraphQL MCP Server is a separate open-source developer tool built by Apollo GraphQL, a different company, for exposing GraphQL APIs via MCP.

If you're here to prospect, enrich contacts, or run sequences inside your AI tool, you're in the right place.
