Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Read Helpwise conversations, contacts, tags and reports; note, tag, assign, close; send one email.

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: Chat & email

Install

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

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 3 of 3 passed
  • Runs on the maker’s server: what you ask it goes through their server.
  • Can do 21 things (tools) helpwise_list_conversations, helpwise_get_conversation, helpwise_list_contacts, helpwise_search_contacts …
  • The registry lists no key to fill in.

What it can do

Tool names and descriptions exactly as the server reported them on Nov 6, 2026. The maker wrote them, not us; we show them as plain text.

  • helpwise_list_conversations

    List conversations (threads) of one or more inboxes, newest first, with subject, snippet, tags, assignee, read/starred/closed flags and contact. Pick the folder with `folder` (default: all). Page with `next_page_token`. Inbox ids come from helpwise_list_inboxes. GET /conversation

  • helpwise_get_conversation

    One conversation with its messages, notes, drafts, assignment and contacts. Page long conversations with `page_token` from the previous reply. GET /inboxes/{inbox_id}/conversations/{conversation_id}.

  • helpwise_list_contacts

    List contacts (name, company, job title, emails, phones, id). Page with limit and offset. GET /contacts.

  • helpwise_search_contacts

    Search contacts by a name, email or phone term. Page with limit and offset. GET /contacts/search.

  • helpwise_get_contact

    One contact with emails, phones, company, custom fields and recent conversations. GET /contacts/{id}.

  • helpwise_list_tags

    All tags (id, name, colour, parent, inbox). Use the ids with helpwise_apply_tags. GET /tags.

  • helpwise_get_tag

    One tag by id. GET /tags/{id}.

  • helpwise_get_report

    Overall and team-performance report for a date range: new/closed/assigned conversations (with change vs the previous period), inbound/outbound messages per day, busiest hour/day, average first response, response and resolution time, CSAT and per-agent performance. Optional inbox

  • helpwise_get_tags_report

    Per-tag report for one inbox and a date range: conversations per tag (and share), open conversations, average response, first-response and resolution time. GET /inboxes/{inbox_id}/reports/tags.

  • helpwise_list_inboxes

    List the account's inboxes (mailboxes) with id, name, address and type. Use the ids in the other tools. POST /mailboxes/list (V0).

  • helpwise_list_users

    List the team members (agents) with access to an inbox: id, name, email. Use the ids with helpwise_assign_conversation. POST /users/list (V0).

  • helpwise_get_current_user

    The Helpwise user the API key belongs to (name, email, id). POST /users/me (V0).

  • helpwise_create_contact

    WRITE: create a new contact in Helpwise (name, company, job title, emails, phones, custom fields). Nothing is sent to the person. Creating the same email twice may create a duplicate. POST /contacts.

  • helpwise_update_contact

    WRITE: change a contact's name, company, job title, emails, phones or custom fields. Helpwise updates with PUT, so this tool first reads the contact and sends the current values together with your changes; a list you pass (emails, phones, custom_fields) REPLACES the old list. Not

  • helpwise_add_note

    WRITE: add an internal note to a conversation. Visible to your Helpwise team only; it is not sent to the customer. Notes cannot be deleted through this API. POST /notes/add (V0).

  • helpwise_assign_conversation

    WRITE: assign a conversation to a team member (user id from helpwise_list_users), or pass assigned_to 0 to unassign it. The assignee may be notified by Helpwise. POST /threads/assign (V0).

  • helpwise_close_conversations

    WRITE: close up to 25 conversations (mark them done). They can be reopened with helpwise_reopen_conversations. Nothing is sent to customers. PUT /conversations/action/close.

  • helpwise_reopen_conversations

    WRITE: move up to 25 conversations back to the inbox (reopen closed ones). Nothing is sent to customers. PUT /conversations/action/moveToInbox.

  • helpwise_apply_tags

    WRITE: apply existing tags (ids from helpwise_list_tags) to up to 25 conversations. Tags can drive Helpwise automations. Applying a tag already present changes nothing. POST /tags/apply.

  • helpwise_remove_tags

    WRITE: take tags off up to 25 conversations. The tags themselves are not deleted. POST /tags/remove.

  • helpwise_send_email

    WRITE: SEND A REAL EMAIL from a Helpwise inbox to the given customer address(es). Irreversible; once sent it cannot be recalled. At most 10 recipients in total (to + cc), one message per call; never use it for lists or campaigns. This starts a new message (it is not a reply on an

Common questions

Is Helpwise MCP by usefulapi safe?

It passed 3 of 3 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?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

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 (1.22.3) reached the registry yesterday.

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: Vexa, emailmd, MCP WhatsApp Cloud

Helpwise MCP by usefulapi

Use Helpwise from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client — shared-inbox conversations, contacts, tags, inboxes and reports, plus triage and a single e-mail send. Hosted, no local install: connect with your own Helpwise credentials.

Live endpoint: https://helpwise.usefulapi.io/mcp · Homepage: https://usefulapi.io/helpwise

Connect

  • Claude (claude.ai, Desktop): open Customize → Connectors, click + Add → Add custom connector, and paste https://helpwise.usefulapi.io/mcp.
  • Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http helpwise https://helpwise.usefulapi.io/mcp, then run /mcp to log in.
  • VS Code: Add to VS Code.
  • Cursor and other clients: add the URL as a remote MCP server:
{

"mcpServers": { "helpwise": { "url": "https://helpwise.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, and the login page asks for your Helpwise credentials.
