What is an MCP Server for Upwork?

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is how AI clients talk to external services. GetMany’s MCP server exposes your workspace — scanners, live job feeds, proposal stats and the auto-bidder — as tools your AI client can call directly. Ask a question, and it reads your real pipeline to answer it.

AI-Native Integration

Works with Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor and any MCP-compatible client. No extensions, no plugins.

Your Live Pipeline

Real scanners, real job feeds, real proposal stats — the same data the app shows you, current to the second.

Your Workspace, Not Raw Upwork

Every tool acts on the workspace you already built: the scanners you tuned, the filters you set, the bidder you configured.

Set Up in 3 Steps

1
Create a key

Generate an API key in GetMany. Name it, set an expiry, revoke it whenever you want.

What Users Say

“Morning triage used to be forty minutes of scrolling. Now I ask Claude which jobs in my scanners are worth bidding on and get a ranked answer with reasons.”

Alex R.

Freelance React Developer

“We run twelve scanners. Pausing, retuning and reprioritising them from chat — without opening the dashboard — changed how our leads team works.”

Sarah K.

Agency Owner, 12 freelancers

“Pulling the bid funnel for a scanner in one question is what I use most. I found two scanners quietly burning Connects on jobs we never win.”

David M.

Full-Stack Developer
