Connectors
Add Sangria to Claude, ChatGPT, or any MCP-capable app and shop from the chat.
A connector adds Sangria's shopping tools to an assistant you already use. You connect once and sign in with your Sangria account; after that you can ask the assistant to find and buy things in ordinary conversation, and it spends from your credit balance.
Connectors speak the Model Context Protocol (MCP) — an open standard for giving an assistant access to an outside service. Sangria's MCP endpoint is:
https://api.getsangria.com/mcpClaude and ChatGPT have the step-by-step. Any other MCP-capable app connects at the same URL: follow whatever that app calls "add a custom connector," and everything on this page applies once it's connected.
What a connector can do
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
discover | Finds products and locks a short-lived quote — by description, or from a product page URL you paste. No money moves. |
buy | Buys one product you approved from a previous discover, charging your credits. |
balance | Reports your available credit balance and your account currency. |
orders | Lists your recent orders, newest first. Items bought together as one multi-item purchase share a batch_id; each row carries the product link for re-ordering, plus the delivery estimate, carrier and tracking number once those are known. The delivery estimate is offered only while an order still has an arrival ahead of it. Carrier and tracking number are reported on delivered, cancelled and refunded orders too — a tracking number stays accurate once issued, and is what a user needs to follow a delivered parcel or return one from a cancelled order. Only running and failed carry neither: nothing reached the merchant, so there is no package to name. |
auth_status | Confirms the connection to your Sangria account is working. |
A quote stays valid for about 45 minutes. If you take longer to decide, the assistant searches again for a fresh price before buying.
Prices and tax
Each match comes back with the item price before tax, an estimated tax, and an estimated total. The total is what your credits are charged. Where displayed prices already include tax, the estimated tax is zero and the total is simply the price.
Spend limits
Connecting creates a connector agent on your account with limits already set: $60 per day and $200 per month, in your account's currency. You can change them any time from your dashboard.
To cut off access entirely, disconnect the connector in the app you connected from — the dashboard can adjust that agent's limits but can't revoke it, so disconnecting in the app is what cuts off access.
Spend limits covers how the windows are counted.
What a connector deliberately can't do
Money and profile changes stay in the dashboard, so a connector can never make them on your behalf:
- No top-ups, no payment methods. Add credits and manage your saved card yourself.
- No shipping or settings changes. Address, phone, and country are yours to set.
- No free-form context. Describe the product you want; personal notes aren't passed along.
- No Amazon short links.
