How to connect Podda to any AI assistant

This guide will show you how to add Podda as a custom connector from your assistant's settings. It takes about a minute and you only have to do it once.

Step by step

  1. 1

    Find where your assistant adds a connector or a tool server. It is usually under settings.

  2. 2

    Give it a name and Podda's address.

    Name

    Podda

    Address

    https://api.podda.app/mcp
  3. 3

    Sign in to Podda in the window that opens, then choose Allow.

How do I know it worked?

Once it is connected, check that your assistant can actually reach Podda. Start a new chat and ask it to list your apps.

  1. 1

    Say this to your assistant:

    can you connect to podda? list my apps
    An assistant replying to the request to list your Podda apps
    The assistant answering the test, which proves it reached Podda.
  2. 2

    It will ask permission to use Podda's tools. Choose Allow.

  3. 3

    Your assistant will tell you whether it reached Podda. You will not have any apps yet, and that is fine.

How do I publish an app?

You just ask. Describe the app you want in plain words, and your assistant builds it and publishes it to Podda for you. No setup, no code.

Already have something? Point it at what you have and say to put it on Podda, and it does the rest.

  • For example, say:

    Build something new

    Make me a chore chart for the house and put it on Podda.

    Publish an existing app

    Put my budget spreadsheet on Podda.

What if it will not connect?

  • Double-check the address. It has to be exactly https://api.podda.app/mcp, with no spaces around it.

  • Make sure you finished the Allow step. Closing that window too early leaves it half-connected.

  • Start a new chat before you ask. A chat you opened before connecting will not see Podda yet.
