We use MCP in production since March 26 for user-facing endurance sports analytics and planning that integrates directly with the MCP host, in this case the chat interfaces of ChatGPT, Claude, Grok, Perplexity.ai, Mistral, you name it. All of those let users add either custom MCP servers, which users can do with a simple explanation. To connect Claude for example: https://www.tredict.com/faq/connect-claude-web-with-tredict/ This way users can use Claude to create and push workouts with their Garmin devices based on a prior analysis. We also have a ChatGPT App, which uses MCP in the background: https://chatgpt.com/plugins/plugin_asdk_app_69aef5b699a08191... The point here is, MCP is the backbone behind the product and enables regular users to do things without knowing anything about it. The whole "is MCP useless?" discussion is totally pointless from a regular consumer-user perspective, they even do not know what MCP is sometimes. The Tredict ChatGPT App connects with one click and a simple oauth flow. That's it. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

This. We also thought MCP was useless, but now the workflows by ChatGPT and Claude are so good; it's as good as installing an app from the App Store. We launched MCP for our SaaS and immediately found users using it. API and MCP all are just buzzwords for customers. What they care about is whether they can get tasks done in our SaaS using Claude or ChatGPT. If that happens, it's a success. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
