What you can do with Mindbody in Claude and ChatGPT

For studio and wellness owners who run classes and appointments in Mindbody.

See a class roster and how full classes are

The AI lists classes in a date range with teacher, location, capacity and booked and waitlist counts, and opens one class to read its roster.

Check a client's visits, memberships and balance

The AI finds a client by name or email, then reads past and scheduled visits, active memberships with remaining counts and expiry, and the account balance.

Review sales and pricing options

The AI lists completed sales in a date range with items, payments and client, and the class packs, drop-ins and intro offers for sale.

Review or update booked appointments

The AI lists booked appointments by staff, client or date range. It can reschedule one, or change its time, staff, notes or status, for example confirm or arrive.

Changes data

Book a client into a class or an appointment

The AI books a client into a class or its waiting list, or finds open slots for a session type and books an appointment with a staff member. No card is charged.

Changes data

Add or update a client record

The AI creates a new client with first and last name, or changes fields on an existing client. No card or billing data is accepted.

How do I connect Mindbody?

Before you connect

The login page asks for your Mindbody API key and Site ID.

Optional: Staff username and Staff password.

Your credentials are used only to call the Mindbody API on your behalf and to derive a private account id; they are never shown to anyone. Note: Mindbody meters and bills API calls to your developer account.

Claude claude.ai · Desktop

Open Customize → Connectors, then click + Add → Add custom connector.
Enter the name Mindbody and this URL, then click Add:
https://mindbody.usefulapi.io/mcp
Claude opens the login page: enter your Mindbody API key and Site ID.
In a chat, click + → Connectors and turn on Mindbody.

Team and Enterprise: an Owner adds the connector for the organization first.

ChatGPT chatgpt.com

Open Plugins, click +, then Add custom MCP server.
Enter the name Mindbody and this URL, choose OAuth as the authentication, confirm the warning and create it:
https://mindbody.usefulapi.io/mcp
ChatGPT opens the login page: enter your Mindbody API key and Site ID.
In Plugins, install Mindbody, then choose it in a chat.

No Add custom MCP server option? It depends on your account or workspace settings: see OpenAI's guide.

Claude Code

Run this command, then run /mcp in Claude Code to log in:

claude mcp add --transport http mindbody https://mindbody.usefulapi.io/mcp

Cursor

Add to Cursor or add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mindbody": {
      "url": "https://mindbody.usefulapi.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Add to VS Code or add this to .vscode/mcp.json:

{
  "servers": {
    "mindbody": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mindbody.usefulapi.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Codex

Run these commands. The second one opens the login page:

codex mcp add mindbody --url https://mindbody.usefulapi.io/mcp

codex mcp login mindbody

Other clients

Windsurf, Cline, Zed and other MCP clients: add this URL as a remote MCP server (Streamable HTTP). The client then opens the login page in your browser.

https://mindbody.usefulapi.io/mcp

Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your Mindbody API key and Site ID. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.

Pricing

Plan	Price	Limit
Free	$0	50 tool calls / month
Proper user	$9/mo · $90/yr	10,000 tool calls / month
Pro+per user	$39/mo · $390/yr	100,000 tool calls / month

Each paid plan covers this Mindbody server only. Ask your AI to run mindbody_upgrade and choose Pro or Pro+, billed monthly or yearly (it returns a Stripe Checkout link). If you already have Pro, ask to change it to Pro+. The change requires your confirmation, keeps your billing interval and charges the price difference for the rest of the period immediately. Cancel any time with mindbody_cancel_subscription: your paid plan continues to the end of the paid period, with no refund for the current period, and asking to resume the same plan with mindbody_upgrade before then undoes the cancel. Or write to support@usefulapi.io.

Book a client into a classmindbody_add_client_to_class
Book a client into a class (or onto its waiting list). Does not take payment: by default no pricing option is required; set require_payment to insist the client has a usable one on account. Undo from the Mindbody front desk. Pass test: true to validate only.
Book an appointmentmindbody_add_appointment
Book an appointment for a client with a staff member at a location. Find a slot first with mindbody_list_bookable_items. No card is charged; apply_payment (Mindbody's default is true) only applies a pricing option already on the client's account. Pass test: true to validate only. Requires a staff user token.
Update an appointmentmindbody_update_appointment
Reschedule or edit an appointment (start/end time, staff, session type, notes — the only fields Mindbody lets you change) and/or move it through its status: confirm, unconfirm, arrive, unarrive, complete. Cancel and late-cancel are deliberately not offered (a late cancel can charge the client). Pass test: true to validate only. Requires a staff user token.
Add a clientmindbody_add_client
Create a new client record (first and last name required; the site may require more — Mindbody reports which). No card or billing data is accepted. Pass test: true to validate only.
Update a clientmindbody_update_client

Your usefulapi plan · 4

Usage status (free-tier meter)mindbody_usage_status
Report the caller's current usage: the plan, calls used this month, the limit of the plan (the free monthly cap or the Pro fair use limit), remaining, and whether the limit is reached. Read-only; does not count against the meter.
Request a missing featuremindbody_request_feature
Tell usefulapi that the user needs something the Mindbody tools cannot do yet (a missing tool, field or filter). Call it only when the user asks for something none of the tools can do, and tell the user that you send the request. Do not call it for errors or for normal requests. Do not include personal data, credentials or customer records. Stored with the product name and the client type (for example Claude or Cursor), without the user's account. At most 5 requests per day. Does not count against the meter.
Upgrade to Pro or Pro+mindbody_upgrade
Get a paid plan for Mindbody (the free tier caps monthly usage). Pro: 10,000 tool calls a month, for normal use — plan "monthly" ($9/month) or "yearly" ($90/year, 2 months free). Pro+: 100,000 tool calls a month, for automations and heavy use — plan "plus" ($39/month) or "plus_yearly" ($390/year). Without a plan it returns both Pro and Pro+, each with a payment link, for the user to choose; with a plan, one link. An existing Pro subscription changes to Pro+ in place: call without confirm first, as the reply states the exact charge for this account (the price difference for the rest of the period, or in a free Pro trial the full Pro+ price, as the trial ends); then call with confirm: true. Cancel any time: the plan then runs to the end of the paid period, so it also suits a one-time job. A link opens Stripe Checkout in the browser; after payment the account upgrades automatically. Does not count against the meter.
Cancel the Pro subscriptionmindbody_cancel_subscription
Cancel the caller's Mindbody Pro subscription at the end of the paid period (no refund for the current period; Pro continues until then, then the free tier applies). Requires confirm: true. Run mindbody_upgrade later to undo the cancel before the period ends. Does not count against the meter.

FAQ

What can I do with Mindbody in Claude or ChatGPT?

See a class roster and how full classes are. Check a client's visits, memberships and balance. Review sales and pricing options. Review or update booked appointments. Book a client into a class or an appointment. Add or update a client record. See what you can do for the details.

Is this an official Mindbody product?

No. usefulapi is an independent service. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by Mindbody. The server calls the Mindbody API with your own Mindbody access, so it sees only the data that your account can see.

Can I connect Mindbody to Claude or ChatGPT?

Yes. In Claude, add this server's URL as a custom connector. In ChatGPT, add it as a custom MCP server in Plugins. Then log in once. Cursor, VS Code, Claude Code and Codex work too. See the setup steps.

What do I need to connect?

The login page asks for your Mindbody API key and Site ID. See Before you connect for where to find them.

Do I put my Mindbody key or an Authorization header in the client config?

No. Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your Mindbody API key and Site ID. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.

How do you keep my Mindbody credentials?

The login stores them encrypted in the authorization grant of your connection. The server uses them to call the Mindbody API for you and to derive a private account id for usage metering. usefulapi does not show them on any page or in any reply. To stop all access, remove the connector and change or delete these credentials in Mindbody.

Can the AI change my Mindbody data?

Yes, if you approve it. 5 of the 20 Mindbody tools can create or change data. The other 15 are marked read-only. Most MCP clients ask you to approve a tool call before it runs.

What does it cost?

The Free plan gives 50 tool calls / month. Pro costs $9/mo or $90/yr, with 10,000 tool calls / month. Pro+ costs $39/mo or $390/yr, with 100,000 tool calls / month. Each subscription covers this Mindbody server only. Cancel any time: your paid plan then runs to the end of the paid period. Run mindbody_usage_status to see how many calls you used.

How do I subscribe or cancel?

Ask the AI to run mindbody_upgrade and choose Pro or Pro+, billed monthly or yearly: it returns a Stripe Checkout link. If you already have Pro, ask to change it to Pro+. After you confirm, your existing subscription changes in place, keeps its billing interval and charges the price difference for the rest of the period immediately. To cancel, run mindbody_cancel_subscription. Your paid plan continues to the end of the paid period.

What if a Mindbody tool that I need is missing?

Tell the AI what you wanted to do. It can send the request with mindbody_request_feature. We store the text with the server name, the type of AI client and the tool you tried, not with your account, and read every request when we plan new tools. You can send up to 5 requests per day.

Which AI clients can I use?

Any client that supports remote MCP servers (Streamable HTTP) with OAuth login: Claude (web and desktop), Claude Code, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf and others.

This is a Model Context Protocol endpoint — meant to be connected from an AI client, not opened in a browser. An invalid_token response at the URL is the auth gate working as designed; clients authenticate automatically.
