01: How it works

From connector to a live show

Connect once. Ask in plain language. RivetAI does the production work and keeps every deliverable in your workspace.

Step 01

Connect

Add RivetAI in Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor. The client calls our hosted MCP server.

Step 02

Ask

Talk like a producer: upload this PDF, run breakdown, give me an 8-day board.

Step 03

Act

A thin, stateless adapter over the RivetAI REST API. Every call is authenticated and attributed.

Step 04

Stay

Script, breakdown, schedule, and budget live in RivetAI. The connector stores nothing.

Demo mode explores RivetAI without signing in and does not touch your projects. Open Workspace Settings → Connections to attach a scoped key for each AI app.

02: In your AI app

Ask it the way you'd ask a coordinator

The hosted connector exposes RivetAI production tools so your AI assistant can move from script to board to budget in one conversation.
