Perplexity LinkedIn MCP
Add the LinkedIn MCP to Perplexity as a custom connector
To use a LinkedIn MCP in Perplexity, add Zevari as a remote custom connector with the URL https://mcp.zevari.ai/mcp, choose OAuth, then sign in to Zevari in your browser. Perplexity gets Zevari's hosted LinkedIn and email tools: prospect search, ICP scoring, drafts in your voice, campaigns and reply triage. No browser extension, no cookies, and every send waits for your approval until you switch a trained specialist to Autopilot.

Does setup differ per client?
What is different about Perplexity
Every client reaches the same hosted server at https://mcp.zevari.ai/mcp and signs in the same way: you sign in to Zevari in your browser and approve access. The tools and the approval rules are identical. Only where you add the server, and how the sign-in starts, changes.
- Perplexity asks you to choose the sign-in method and the transport yourself. Pick OAuth and Streamable HTTP.
- Custom connectors are available on Perplexity's Pro, Max and Enterprise plans.
- On Enterprise, members can add their own connectors only after an admin turns on Allow members to add custom connectors. An admin can also add Zevari once for the whole organization.
- Once connected, Zevari is available wherever you use that Perplexity account.
- The tools, the approval rules and the Zevari account are the same as in Claude, ChatGPT and Codex.
| Client | Where you add Zevari | How you sign in | Guide |
|---|---|---|---|
| Claude.ai and Claude Desktop | Customize → Connectors → Add custom connector. Name Zevari AI, URL https://mcp.zevari.ai/mcp | When Claude asks, sign in to Zevari in your browser and approve access. On Team and Enterprise an Owner adds the connector first | Guide |

| Cursor | One-click install link, or add zevari with the URL https://mcp.zevari.ai/mcp to ~/.cursor/mcp.json | Cursor opens the Zevari sign-in in your browser. In the Cursor CLI, run agent mcp login zevari | Guide |
| Gemini app and Gemini CLI | Gemini app: Settings → Connected Apps → Custom apps, paste the URL. Gemini CLI: gemini mcp add --transport http --scope user zevari https://mcp.zevari.ai/mcp | Both open the Zevari sign-in in your browser. In Gemini CLI, run /mcp auth zevari to sign in again | Guide |

Once it is connected
Your AI gets a full outbound department for LinkedIn and email
Your AI SDR team for LinkedIn and email: six specialists your AI can hand work to, in plain English. Start with this check in a new chat:
Use Zevari to show my available workspaces and LinkedIn senders.Signals
Watches for reasons to reach out, like a post about the problem you solve, and ranks them.
ICP Scoring
Scores each lead against your ideal customer profile, with written reasons.
Voice Writer
Drafts connection notes, messages and emails that sound like you.
Follow-up
Runs the sequence across LinkedIn and email on your working hours.
Reply Qualifier
Reads replies and flags the qualified conversations worth your time.
The full list is on what the LinkedIn MCP can do, and there are ready-made LinkedIn MCP prompts to copy.
Nothing sends until you approve it
Your AI stages the work and you approve each send, unless you have moved a specialist to autopilot after it earned it. Zevari holds every account to enforced limits: 100 connection requests a week on Free*, 150 on Premium, 200 on Sales Navigator, a daily cap on all actions, burst limits, and your working hours. No browser extension, no cookie injection. The weekly figure covers connection requests sent without a note: LinkedIn caps requests that carry a note at 3 a month on a free account, and gives Premium and Sales Navigator a far larger allowance, so Premium or Sales Navigator is the practical choice for real outbound (see /safety).
Troubleshooting
If Zevari does not show up
I do not see Add custom
Custom connectors are on the Pro, Max and Enterprise plans. On Enterprise, ask an admin to turn on Allow members to add custom connectors under Enterprise settings → Connectors.
Perplexity asks for a client ID and secret
You do not need them. Zevari registers Perplexity automatically during sign-in, so leave both fields empty and make sure Authentication is set to OAuth.
The connector is added but its tools do not run
The sign-in did not finish. Click the Zevari card again, complete the sign-in in your browser, then start a new thread.
Tools answer that a funded LinkedIn seat is needed
You can connect before paying, but Zevari tools only run in a workspace with a funded LinkedIn seat. Add or associate one in Billing, then ask again.
FAQ
Perplexity LinkedIn MCP questions
Is there a LinkedIn MCP for Perplexity?
Yes. Zevari is a hosted LinkedIn MCP server that Perplexity connects to as a remote custom connector at https://mcp.zevari.ai/mcp. Once you sign in, Perplexity can find and score prospects, draft messages and run campaigns on LinkedIn and email, with every send waiting for your approval.
Can Perplexity send LinkedIn messages on its own?
No. Perplexity can research, draft and stage messages, connection requests and posts, but each send waits for your approval unless you have moved a specialist to autopilot, and Zevari enforces weekly and daily limits on the account.
Do I need the Perplexity Mac app?
No. Zevari is a remote connector, so you can add it in Perplexity on the web. Perplexity's local connectors, which do need the Mac app, are a different feature.
Is Zevari affiliated with Perplexity?
No. Zevari is independent and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Perplexity AI.
Does every send need my approval?
Yes, by default. Your AI can research, score and draft, but every message, connection request, comment and post waits for your approval. The only exception is a specialist you have moved to autopilot yourself, after it has earned it (for Follow-up, ten approved sends in 30 days). Switch it back to reviews with you at any time.
Do I need a browser extension or my LinkedIn cookies?
No. Zevari is a hosted connector. There is no browser extension, no cookie injection and nothing to keep open on your computer.
What does it cost?
Operator is $87/mo, or $497/yr (save 52%). The MCP connection is included, along with all six specialists for LinkedIn and email. Another LinkedIn account is $37 a month.
Is Zevari affiliated with LinkedIn?
No. Zevari is independent and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by LinkedIn Corporation. LinkedIn is a trademark of LinkedIn Corporation.
