Install Sapior

Soft launch, invite only

Install Sapior in three minutes

Sapior is the retention layer that turns Claude or ChatGPT into an effective tutor. To use it, you connect Sapior as an MCP server inside your AI. This page walks you through both. Soft launch is invite-only; if you don't have an invite, click Get Started in the header to join the waitlist. We'll email you when access opens.

MCP Server URL

Here's the URL you'll paste

Connect Sapior to Claude

Works the same in Claude Desktop and Claude.ai. These screenshots are from Claude Desktop but the web UI matches step for step.

Step 1

Open Settings, Customize, Connectors

Open Claude's Settings, then go to Customize. In the left sidebar of the Customize page, click Connectors. (If you go to a Connectors tab elsewhere in Settings, it will tell you Connectors has moved. Follow the link to Customize.)

Step 2

Add Sapior as a custom connector

Click the + icon at the top of the Connectors list. In the dialog that opens, set Name to Sapior (or anything you like; it's just the label you'll see) and URL to https://sapior.ai/api/mcp, then click Add.

Step 3

Approve in the Sapior consent screen

A Sapior consent screen will appear asking for access to your basic profile info and email. Sign in to Sapior, or create an account if this is your first time, then click Allow.

Connect Sapior to ChatGPT

Requires ChatGPT developer mode. Same Sapior URL as Claude.

Step 1

Enable developer mode

Open Settings → Apps → Advanced Settings, then toggle Developer mode on. This unlocks the option to add custom MCP servers like Sapior.

Step 2

Create the Sapior app

Settings → Apps → Create App. In the New App modal, set Name to Sapior and MCP Server URL to https://sapior.ai/api/mcp. Acknowledge the "I understand and want to continue" warning (ChatGPT flags every custom MCP server as a risk; this is expected), then click Create.

Step 3

Approve in the Sapior consent screen

A Sapior consent screen will appear asking for access to your basic profile info and email. Sign in to Sapior, or create an account if this is your first time, then click Allow.

Check it worked

One prompt tells you whether the connection is live.

Step 1

Start a new chat

Open a new conversation with Claude or ChatGPT.

Step 2

Ask for a learning plan

Try a prompt like: "I want to use Sapior to prepare for the AWS Solutions Architect exam by July. Can you set me up?" Or pick your own goal. Any retention-oriented learning goal works. Your AI should call Sapior's create_plan tool. You'll see a tool-use indicator and a plan come back.

Step 3

If you don't see a tool call

Ask your AI directly: "Are you connected to Sapior?" If the answer is no, jump to the troubleshooting section below.

Three Sapior actions to know

Once connected, type / in Claude and look for the Sapior section in the slash menu. These three named actions are your primary entry points — use them instead of describing what you want in freeform. Note: ChatGPT's MCP integration doesn't yet support slash prompts, so these only appear in Claude. In ChatGPT, ask in plain language for the same things.

Step 1

/sapior start [topic]

Create a learning plan and drop into the first item. Example: /sapior start AWS Solutions Architect by July. Sapior offers to let you adjust the plan before you begin.

Step 2

/sapior learn

Your daily loop. Resumes your active plan and serves what's due based on what's fading. Pass a plan name if you have more than one (e.g. /sapior learn AWS).

Step 3

/sapior progress

Retention, coverage, and one specific next action. Tells you what to do next, not just what you've done.

If something went wrong

The most common snags.

I don't see Sapior in the Connectors list (Apps list in ChatGPT) after approving.

Refresh the page (or close and reopen the app). The list sometimes needs a nudge to repaint. If Sapior still isn't there, walk the install steps again from above.

The OAuth popup closed before I could click Allow.

In Claude, re-run the Add custom connector step with the same URL; Claude will re-open the consent flow. In ChatGPT, click the retry option on the Sapior app to try again. Duplicates are fine; each attempt is a fresh authorization.

My AI says it doesn't have access to Sapior tools even though it's connected.

Start a brand new chat. New chats pick up newly-added connections. If the issue persists, fully quit and restart the app.

I'm being asked to sign in to Sapior again every time.

That's a bug, please tell us using the 'Tell us what broke' section below. For now, signing back in works; the connection itself doesn't break.

Can I install Sapior in Cursor or another host?

ChatGPT works today (instructions above; requires enabling developer mode). Cursor and other MCP-compatible hosts can also connect via https://sapior.ai/api/mcp, though we haven't formally verified each one.

Stuck?

Tell us what broke

Once Sapior is connected, ask your AI to send feedback. Sapior has a feedback tool Claude and ChatGPT can call directly. If install didn't work and you can't reach us through your AI, email hello@sapior.ai.
