Overview

The Fireflies MCP Server enables AI tools to connect directly to your meeting data without switching platforms or copying transcript excerpts. This integration allows you to ask questions like “What were the main objections in this week’s sales calls?” or “Create a summary of all product feedback from user interviews this month” directly from your AI coding tools.

What is MCP?

Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that enables AI applications to securely connect to external data sources and tools. With Fireflies MCP Server, your AI tools can access meeting transcripts, summaries, action items, and insights directly from your Fireflies account.

      • Once you have the API key, paste it in your claude_desktop_config.json
      • Replace YOUR_API_KEY_HERE with your actual API key
    3. Restart Claude Desktop
  3. Start querying your data Once configured, you can ask your AI tool questions about your meeting data directly.
