What Groovin MCP does
- Access your LinkedIn inbox, network, and invitations — retrieve messages, connection requests, and profile data directly from LinkedIn through your AI assistant
- Act on LinkedIn, with your approval — send a message or a connection request your assistant drafted, once you’ve validated the text and the recipient
- Cross-reference with CRM data — check whether a LinkedIn contact is already in Attio, HubSpot or Affinity, and surface relevant CRM context alongside LinkedIn activity
- Keep your CRM complete — create contacts, turn on LinkedIn message sync, fill in missing LinkedIn URLs and company domains, or import your whole LinkedIn network, all via natural language
- Works in any MCP-compatible AI platform — use Groovin MCP with Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, or any assistant that supports the Model Context Protocol
How it’s different from your CRM’s MCP
Attio MCP, HubSpot MCP and Affinity MCP are powerful tools for querying and updating data already inside your CRM. But they can only see what has already been synced. If a prospect messaged you on LinkedIn yesterday and hasn’t been added to your CRM yet, those MCPs won’t know they exist.Groovin MCP reaches into live LinkedIn data — your inbox, your pending invitations, your connections — so your AI assistant can work with contacts and conversations that haven’t touched your CRM yet. Think of it as the missing layer between LinkedIn and your CRM-native AI tools.
What Groovin can do
Groovin MCP gives your AI assistant a set of tools covering the full lifecycle from LinkedIn discovery to CRM action: Read your LinkedIn inbox and network- Conversations — list everyone you’ve chatted with on LinkedIn, most recent first, with unread and last-message signals
- Chat messages — read the messages of a specific LinkedIn conversation
- Profile data — fetch one LinkedIn member’s profile information
- Connections — browse and filter your first-degree LinkedIn connections
- Pending invitations — view sent and received LinkedIn connection requests
- Send a message — reply in a conversation or start a new one, after you approve the text
- Send a connection request — with or without a note, after you approve it
- Mark a chat as read or unread — keep your inbox tidy as you work through it
- CRM contact lookup — check in bulk which LinkedIn people already exist in your CRM
- Create contacts — add a batch of LinkedIn profiles to your CRM, optionally with message sync
- Message sync — turn LinkedIn message sync on or off for CRM contacts, and list who is being synced
- Find LinkedIn URLs — fill in the missing LinkedIn profile of contacts already in your CRM
- Find company domains — fill in the missing website domain of companies in your CRM
- Connections import — bring your full LinkedIn connections export into your CRM as contacts and companies, with a preview before anything is written
Nothing is sent on LinkedIn without your explicit approval. For messages and connection requests, your assistant shows you the draft and the recipient, and only sends once you confirm.
Security & data handling
Groovin is built on a GDPR-compliant gateway model:- Data passes through, not into, Groovin — LinkedIn data retrieved by the MCP server is forwarded directly to your CRM or returned to your AI assistant. Groovin does not store message content on its servers.
- LinkedIn credentials never leave your browser — authentication is handled by the Groovin browser extension running locally on your machine. Your LinkedIn login is never transmitted to Groovin’s infrastructure.
- No message content stored — Groovin logs activity metadata (such as timestamps and participant information) for syncing purposes, but the content of your LinkedIn messages is never persisted on Groovin servers.
- CRM data stays in your CRM — once a contact or activity is written to Attio, HubSpot or Affinity, it lives in your CRM under your own account and data policies.
