How do I connect an AI assistant to Wheelhouse via MCP?

Connect Claude, Cursor, or VS Code to your Wheelhouse account.

Written by Ryo

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is a standard that lets AI assistants connect directly to your Wheelhouse account. Once connected, an assistant can read and act on your account data through natural language, instead of you clicking through the product yourself.

Wheelhouse MCP gives access to 58 tools built on our Revenue Management APIs. These tools offer full 1:1 parity with the Wheelhouse UI — anything you can do in the product, you can do through MCP.


What You Can Do With It

Once connected, you can ask your AI assistant to do things like:

  • Pull your pacing against your neighborhood comps and draft an email to owners flagging listings where minimum prices are limiting bookings

  • Review your seasons and flag listings where the Base Price falls below the neighborhood median during peak weeks

  • Pull your last 90 days of reservations and identify listings underperforming on ADR versus your comp set

These are examples of prompts, not a fixed list of capabilities — since MCP has full parity with the UI, you can ask for anything the product itself supports.


What Data and Settings MCP Can Access

Wheelhouse MCP is built on the same Revenue Management APIs used inside the Wheelhouse UI, so it isn't a limited or read-only layer. Connected assistants have access to the same data and controls your team uses in the product, including:

  • Pricing preferences

  • Minimum and maximum price rules

  • Reservations

  • Comp data

  • Custom rates


Before You Connect

Any Wheelhouse user can turn on MCP access themselves. There's no request form and no approval wait.

MCP access is turned off until you switch it on, using the steps below.


How to Connect an AI Assistant

  1. In your Wheelhouse account, go to API & MCP → MCP.

  2. Click Enable MCP Access.
