FROM IDEA TO APPLICATION
Find out whether your product is ready for Claude and get a plain-English plan for what to do next.
This is an independent guide, not Anthropic's official portal.
Claude integrations and the Claude ecosystem let third-party services integrate with Claude through MCP servers, Claude integrations, and connector-style tools. This independent guide helps companies prepare a service for Claude connector work. It is readiness guidance only—not Anthropic’s official portal, and it does not accept applications, approve connectors, or determine listings.
Prepare a finished service integration and readiness materials for your own Claude connector work.
A small trial for learning whether people actually want the task before you pursue a public listing.
Answer what you know. Choose “Not sure” when you need to ask your web or product team—we’ll translate the gap into a clear next step.
Give your product, engineering, and security teams the basics they need. Nothing is uploaded; copy or download the plan when you’re done.
