MCP connected assistants
Connected assistants that understand studio context.
Photonfolio MCP lets trusted assistant apps read approved studio context, summarize workflow status, search photo records, and draft recommendations for photographers.
Short answer
Photonfolio MCP connects trusted AI assistants to approved studio context so they can answer questions, search work, summarize workflow state, and draft recommendations while final changes stay in Photonfolio.
Why it matters
Built around the moment the studio needs this feature.
Photographers and studios that already use AI assistants and want help reasoning over approved studio context. Use it when an assistant could help with search, delivery planning, workflow summaries, or next-step drafts.
Approved access areas limit what context an assistant can use.
Draft recommendations help plan culling, delivery, and follow-up without changing records.
