ChatGPT Remote MCP Integration (Beta)

These instructions walk you through the steps required to add the LLM-Ready API remote MCP server to ChatGPT (opens in a new tab).

Custom MCP servers are currently limited to Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise, and Education accounts. In order to add an MCP server, for example to a Business account, you need to be the administrator of the account. But once added, all members of the account can use the server.

Setup

Step 1: Activate Developer Mode

Adding MCP servers to ChatGPT requires enabling Developer Mode (opens in a new tab), which only the account administrator can activate.

To enable Developer Mode, go to the Advanced Apps & Connectors (opens in a new tab) settings page. (In case the link does not work, start on the Apps & Connectors (opens in a new tab) settings page and scroll all the way to the bottom and select Advanced Settings).

Once on the page, make sure that Developer mode is enabled.

Important Note

ChatGPT navigation and settings descriptions are subject to change. These instructions were last updated 11.7.2025. If you are unable to access the required settings, please contact your S&P account rep for troubleshooting assistance.

Step 2: Add the LLM-Ready API MCP server

Navigate back to the Apps & Connectors (opens in a new tab) settings page and click the Create button.

In the form, you can choose a name and description.

Set the MCP Server url to https://kfinance.kensho.com/integrations/mcp (opens in a new tab) and Authentication to OAuth.

Once you have filled in all of the information, click Create.

You're now ready to use the MCP server. Try it out with a query, for example SPGI revenue 2024. For more example queries, please refer to Sample Questions.

ChatGPT should identify that the LLM-ready API MCP server can provide data for the query. But before actually making the request, ChatGPT will ask you for permission to fetch data.

Select the Remember for this conversation checkbox and click Confirm.

ChatGPT should now formulate an answer based on the data that it fetched from S&P via the MCP server.
