Bud's Plumbing, Heating, Air Conditioning & Electric offers a live Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that connects their business data directly to AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and Claude Code.

For ChatGPT, add the connector URL in Settings -> Connectors -> Add connector. For Claude and similar tools, use the Claude-specific MCP URL. Both URLs work over secure JSON-RPC; visiting them in a browser will not show live data-that's normal and expected.

Once connected, you can ask questions about Bud's services, check their service area, request appointments, and access their full business information through your AI assistant. No sign-up or manual lookup needed.

If you'd like to connect Bud's to your AI tool or have questions about the setup, call Bud's directly for guidance.
