Swoogo becomes first event platform to launch native MCP server connecting live event data to AI tools

Swoogo has launched a native Model Context Protocol server, becoming the first event management platform to directly connect live event data to AI tools including Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Lovable and Replit. Setup requires five minutes with no coding needed. The MCP server enables three key capabilities: conversational data access for querying registrations and attendance, AI-powered event site building through natural language, and cross-event intelligence by connecting event data with external sources like CRM systems. Teams can analyse metrics such as which attendees converted to customers and which events drove the most revenue. The Los Angeles-based company's MCP functionality is available now with full access for all customers through summer 2026. Unlike competitors building proprietary AI features, Swoogo created an open connection point compatible with any AI tool supporting the MCP protocol.
