What are MCP Pro Actions?

Connect to 20+ enterprise services instantly with the Model Context Protocol.

---

Note: MCP Pro Actions require a Builder plan or higher. <a href="https://app.avcodex.com/plans" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" > Upgrade to Builder </a>

MCP (Model Context Protocol) Pro Actions give your AVCodex agent instant access to popular enterprise services like HubSpot, Zapier, and 20+ other platforms. No code needed.

Where Custom Actions cover individual API calls, MCP Pro Actions hook into entire service ecosystems with hundreds of pre-built capabilities.

1. Pick a provider. HubSpot, Zapier, Notion, plus others.
2. Authenticate once. API key or OAuth.
3. Choose capabilities. Enable specific tools, for example "Search HubSpot contacts" or "Trigger Zapier workflow."
