VoIPstudio now has a native MCP (Model Context Protocol) server. It gives Claude (and other AI platforms) direct access to your call recordings, CDRs, live calls, and voicemails.
Once connected, you type a question. Claude queries your data and returns a useful answer. No dashboards to configure, no reports to schedule, no SQL and API-mongering.
A question like this works immediately:
“Which agents had the lowest CX scores last week, and what were the common themes in their difficult calls?”
Claude calls the VoIPstudio tools, pulls the recordings, reads the summaries and scores, and produces a QA report. The whole thing takes seconds.
What Claude can access
The MCP server currently exposes five tools (more coming soon):
- Call recordings – with transcripts, summaries, sentiment, CX scores, and action items (CX Addon required)
- Call detail records – duration, cost, disposition, agent, codec for every call leg
- Live calls – active calls on your account right now
- Voicemails – with caller ID, duration, and listened status
- Recording audio – direct MP3 download links for specific recordings
All tools support date range filtering, agent filtering, disposition filtering, and pagination. You can ask Claude to filter, aggregate, and compare across any of these.
Some questions that work out of the box:
- “What was our call volume by day this week?”
- “Show me all unanswered inbound calls from yesterday with caller IDs.”
- “Which agents handled the most calls this month, and what was their average talk time?”
- “Were there any calls this week where a customer mentioned cancelling or complained about billing?”

Reduce token spend with CX Addon
The MCP integration works with any VoIPstudio account. Add the CX Addon and the data Claude receives gets substantially richer.
A recording without the CX Addon contains metadata: timestamp, duration, agent name. To answer any question about what was actually said, Claude has to fetch the audio, transcribe it, summarise it, classify sentiment, and extract actions. That process consumes roughly 10,000 to 15,000 tokens per call, sometimes much more!
With the CX Addon, VoIPstudio handles all of that before Claude ever sees the record. Each recording arrives with:
- Full transcript, speaker-diarised
- Call summary
- Customer sentiment
- Action items and key moments
- CX score from 1 to 10
Token cost per call drops to around 300 to 500.
The CX Addon is a fixed monthly subscription covering unlimited transcription. VoIPstudio processes the audio on its own infrastructure. There are no per-call fees and no transcription limits.
In practice, this means you can ask Claude to review an entire week of calls across all agents in a single session, at a token cost that would previously have covered a handful of calls.
Who it’s for
Connecting VoIPstudio to Claude does not require complex technical setup. Create an API key under the VoIPstudio admin dashboard. The scope of access your AI platform has will be limited to that of the user who owns the API key.
Then simply add the MCP URL (https://mcp.voipstudio.workers.dev/sse) and the API key to Claude Connectors (or equivalent external MCP servers in other platforms) and authorise the connection. Team leaders, QA managers, and operations staff can start immediately.
Here you can find full MCP documentation and filter reference.
What’s coming
This release covers read access: querying, analysing, and reporting. Write capabilities are in development, including labelling calls, creating follow-up tasks, and triggering calls, messages and workflows from within a Claude conversation.
If you want early access or have a specific workflow in mind, please let your account manager know.
