Connect another app
Any MCP app that signs in with OAuth and registers itself can connect at https://ovante.app/api/mcp, if it returns you to an allowed address.
On this page
Any app that speaks MCP can read Ovante as you, as long as it signs in with OAuth, registers itself, and sends you back to an address Ovante allows. Ovante has no API keys and no public REST API: every connection goes through the consent screen and shows under Connected apps.
What the app needs
| Ovante expects | |
|---|---|
| Address | https://ovante.app/api/mcp |
| Transport | Streamable HTTP. Each POST gets one JSON answer; there is no standing event stream. |
| Sign-in | OAuth authorization code with PKCE (S256), as a public client with no secret |
| Registration | Dynamic client registration. Ovante's discovery documents point the app to it. |
| Return address | An https address on claude.ai, claude.com, chatgpt.com or chat.openai.com, or an app on your own computer (http://localhost or http://127.0.0.1, any port) |
| Tokens | Short-lived access tokens and rotating refresh tokens |
An app that asks to return anywhere else is refused when it registers, so a sign-in code can only ever reach one of those addresses.
Connect it
- 1In your app, add an MCP server with the address
https://ovante.app/api/mcp. - 2Start the connection. The app registers itself and opens Ovante in your browser.
- 3Sign in to Ovante if it asks, and check Signed in as.
- 4Check Returns you to. A local app shows "an app on this computer" and "This app named itself."
- 5Click Connect if you started this yourself. Otherwise click Cancel.
- 6The app comes back with Ovante's tools. It shows under Settings → Connected apps.

Connect only if you started the connection from that app a moment ago.ToolsEvery tool the Ovante connector offers an AI app, what each reads, what it returns, and who can use it. All of them read only.LimitsHow many calls AI apps can make for you and your org, how many place lookups, and the longest analytics range, with what the app hears at each.
