  https://help.ortto.com/a-912-using-ortto-mcp-with-chatgpt, announced in the
  Ortto 1.27 release (2025-12-19) at https://roadmap.ortto.com/changelog
name: Ortto MCP
status: published
description: >-
  Ortto ships a first-party hosted MCP server, announced in the 1.27 release
  (19 December 2025) and documented in its own help-center category
  (help.ortto.com/c-332-ortto-mcp). It is a remote HTTP MCP endpoint with three
  regional deployments matching Ortto's data-residency regions (US, EU, AU).
  There is no stdio package: an MCP client connects directly to the URL, so an
  agent can reach it without anything installed locally. Authentication is a
  scoped JWT the customer mints in the Ortto app under CDP > Data sources > MCP
  data source and passes as a ?jwt= query parameter on the endpoint URL — the
  server is not OAuth-protected and serves no OAuth metadata. The tool surface
  is read-heavy (campaigns, contacts, audiences, reports, schema, brand book)
  with a small set of write tools for email assets and knowledge-base articles.
deployment:
  mode: remote
  endpoint: https://mcp-api-us.ortto.app/mcp
  auth: api-key
  verified: probed
  note: >-
    Endpoint URLs are published verbatim in Ortto's help center. All three hosts
    were probed unauthenticated on 2026-08-13 and answered HTTP 403 from
    awselb/2.0 — the hosts resolve and are live behind Ortto's own AWS load
    balancer, but reject any request without the ?jwt= scoped key, so tools/list
    could not be introspected anonymously. Tool names and descriptions below are
    read from the provider's documentation, not from a live tools/list, and the
    tools carry no inputSchema here for that reason.
