274: MCPs in Claude: How 6 Founders Are Actually Automating Their Businesses

Send us Fan Mail

Most conversations about AI automation stay theoretical. This one doesn't.

I sat down with my peer mastermind, a group we call the Weird Hermits, for a roundtable on MCPs in Claude, also called connectors. These are the tools that let your AI plug straight into the software you already use, like Kit, Airtable, Meta Ads, Shopify, and even Instacart.

Six of us walked through exactly what we have running right now, and what it has replaced.

In this episode:

• What an MCP actually is, in plain language
• How the Kit connector surfaces subscriber data you couldn't see before
• The "drop a CSV and walk away" membership dashboard workflow
• Live artifacts that pull fresh data every time you open them
• Reading Meta ad performance without ever touching Ads Manager
• Skills and scheduled tasks that run your content, support, and reporting for you
• The personal-life automations we probably shouldn't admit to (banking, meal plans, groceries)

If you have been meaning to get your time back, this is the episode to take notes on.
