Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Place phone calls, run calling campaigns and build voice agents from your own Telenow numbers.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs in the cloud
  • Transport: Streamable HTTP
  • Category: Other
  • You need to fill in: Authorization

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on the maker’s server: what you ask it goes through their server.
  • You fill in yourself: Authorization

Values marked secret are keys to your account. Never share them or paste them into a chat.

You need

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

This address needs a key in a request header, which the add-connector menu cannot set. Use Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code instead.

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add --transport http telenow https://api.telenow.ai/mcp --header 'Authorization: Bearer {api_key}'

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "telenow": {
      "url": "https://api.telenow.ai/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer {api_key}"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "telenow": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api.telenow.ai/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer {api_key}"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This address needs a key in a request header, which the add-connector menu cannot set. Use Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code instead.

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

Values you fill in

  • Authorization secret HTTP header
    Optional organization API key. Leave empty to sign in with OAuth instead. A read-only key gives read-only tools.

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

Common questions

Is Telenow — AI Phone Calls & Voice Agents safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

You need to fill in: Authorization

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.0.1) reached the registry 28 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

In the same category: Spec Driven Development, Remote Desktop Commander, Symantec Cloud DLP AIops

Telenow MCP Server Let your AI assistant make real phone calls.

Docs · Tools reference · Protocol & OAuth · Costs per minute

Telenow is a remote MCP server that gives Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Grok, Gemini CLI and any MCP client a real phone. Place calls from your own Telenow numbers, get the outcome, summary and transcript, build voice agents, quote the price per minute, and run outbound calling campaigns.

This repository holds documentation and client configuration only. The server is hosted by Telenow at https://api.telenow.ai/mcp; there is nothing to install or run.

PricingPay-as-you-go from your Telenow wallet, about $0.05/min for a typical setup

What you can ask

  • "Call +1 415 555 0100 and book a table for 4 at 8pm Friday under my name. Tell me what they said."
  • "What calls came in on my sales line yesterday? Summarize anything that needs a follow-up."
  • "Build a voice agent that confirms dental appointments in Spanish, and tell me its cost per minute."
  • "Draft a campaign calling these 200 leads between 10am and 6pm their time, two retries on no answer. Don't start it yet."
  • "How did yesterday's renewal campaign go? Who asked to be called back?"

Install

You need a Telenow account with at least one phone number. When you connect, Telenow asks you to sign in and choose the organization, numbers and permissions the assistant may use.

Claude (claude.ai, Desktop, mobile)

Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector → URL https://api.telenow.ai/mcp → Connect and sign in.

Claude Code
# OAuth sign-in

claude mcp add --transport http telenow https://api.telenow.ai/mcp

or with an API key

claude mcp add --transport http telenow https://api.telenow.ai/mcp \ --header "Authorization: Bearer vai_live_…"

ChatGPT

Settings → Apps & Connectors → Advanced → enable Developer mode → Create connector → URL https://api.telenow.ai/mcp, auth OAuth. On Business/Enterprise workspaces an admin must allow custom connectors first.

Cursor

Or add to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{

"mcpServers": { "telenow": { "url": "https://api.telenow.ai/mcp" } } }

VS Code (GitHub Copilot)
// .vscode/mcp.json

{ "servers": { "telenow": { "type": "http", "url": "https://api.telenow.ai/mcp" } } }

Windsurf / Cline / other clients with OAuth

Add a remote (Streamable HTTP) server with URL https://api.telenow.ai/mcp. The client will open the Telenow sign-in page.

Clients without OAuth

Send an organization API key as a header:

{

"mcpServers": { "telenow": { "url": "https://api.telenow.ai/mcp", "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer vai_live_…" } } } }

A read-only key gives read-only tools; a write-capable key has full permissions in its organization.
Gemini CLI
gemini extensions install https://github.com/TelenowAI/Telenow-AI-MCP
Grok

grok.com/connectors → New Connector → Custom → URL https://api.telenow.ai/mcp.

Safety and permissions

  • The assistant must ask before anything reaches real people.
  • It can only call from the numbers you chose when connecting.
  • It never sees or sets your API keys.
  • It can only change agents and campaigns it created.
  • Agent tools, webhooks and transfers stay off unless you tick Give agents tools (agents:tools scope).
  • OAuth scopes: calls:read, calls:write, agents:write, agents:tools, campaigns:write, offline_access.
  • Rate limit: 3,000 requests per 15 minutes per connection or API key.

Pricing

Calls are billed per minute from your organization's wallet, within your spend limits. A typical setup (Cartesia voice, GPT-4o-mini, Deepgram Nova-3, Plivo) is about $0.049/min; a 2-minute call to 100 people is about $10. Use the estimate_cost tool for an exact quote. Parts running on your own vendor keys or carrier are not billed by Telenow. See https://telenow.ai/docs/mcp-costs.
