What is the
Collaboard MCP Server?

The Collaboard MCP Server lets AI assistants work directly with your Collaboard boards.
Instead of asking AI to describe a process, workshop or project plan in text, you can let it create the result directly on a board — where your team can continue working with it.
MCP, short for Model Context Protocol, provides the connection between Collaboard and compatible AI tools such as ChatGPT, Claude and Cursor.

AI works directly on the board. Create, read and update Collaboard content through your AI assistant.

Turn answers into visual outcomes. Move beyond text responses and generate diagrams, workshops, roadmaps and structured boards.

Keep working with the result. Everything AI creates becomes editable Collaboard content your team can refine, discuss and reuse.

Create, analyze and extend boards with AI

The MCP Server creates new boards from your prompts and analyzes existing ones. Create and analyze, both directly in Collaboard.

Analyze
