Connect Claude & ChatGPT to SmartEmailing

Ask your AI who is on a list, how the last newsletter did, or to import a batch of new contacts into SmartEmailing. It can search and update contacts, manage contact lists, save email content, send newsletters and transactional emails, and fire events that start your automations. You get answers about your email marketing without clicking through the app.

Try asking

“Find the contact [email protected] and show which lists she is on.”
The AI looks up the contact and shows her fields, custom fields and list memberships.
“Add these five people to the Webinar list.”
It imports the contacts with name and email and puts them on the list. Contacts that already exist are updated.
“How did our last three newsletters perform?”
It lists recent newsletters and reads the summary stats: sent, opens, clicks, bounces and unsubscribes.

What your AI can do

Contacts and lists

Search, import and update contacts, change email addresses, and create, update and read contact lists and custom fields.

Emails and newsletters

Save email content, send newsletters to lists, send transactional emails and read newsletter statistics.

Automations

List and read automations, and fire named events for contacts so the automations listening for them start.

“Save a new email called October update with this text.”
It creates a saved email with a title and HTML or text body. Nothing is sent.
“Send the October update to the Customers list tomorrow at 9.”
It sends the saved email as a newsletter to the list with a scheduled start. This emails real contacts and cannot be undone.
“Which contacts unsubscribed from the Newsletter list?”
It lists the list's contacts filtered by membership status, such as unsubscribed.

Questions

What can the AI do in SmartEmailing?

It can search and read contacts, contact lists, custom fields, saved emails, newsletters, newsletter stats, automations and web forms. It can import and update contacts, change a contact's email address, create and update lists, save emails, send newsletters and transactional emails, and trigger automation events.

Does the AI see my SmartEmailing credentials?

No. Your login email and API key are encrypted at rest and never shown to the AI. After you save them, they are not shown again, not even to you. The AI only sees the results of the tools it calls.

Can I control what the AI is allowed to do?

Yes. You choose which tools are switched on, so you can start with lookups only. Sending a newsletter or transactional email reaches real contacts, and those actions can require your approval before they run. Every tool call is logged.

Does it work with ChatGPT?

Yes. In ChatGPT go to Settings › Apps & Connectors › Advanced and turn on Developer mode, then add your HeyMyApps link. Developer mode needs a paid ChatGPT plan: Plus, Pro, Business or Enterprise. The same link also works in Claude (Settings › Connectors › Add custom connector), Cursor and other MCP clients.

What does it cost?

HeyMyApps has a free plan with no credit card required. Paid plans bill per completed task. You also need your own SmartEmailing account.

Can the AI send a campaign by mistake?

Only if you let it. Saving an email with create_email sends nothing. Sending happens through send_newsletter, send_transactional_email or an automation event, and you can switch those tools off or require approval for them.
