How to Connect HubSpot to Claude (Read-Only MCP)

Plug HubSpot CRM into Claude Desktop or Claude.ai in three steps. Read-only — contacts, companies, deals, pipelines and owners answered in plain English.

HubSpot has the answers — pipeline value, deal velocity, owner performance, contact lifecycle — but reaching them through report builder takes ten clicks. Claude can read HubSpot directly via MCP, and the connector.wtf HubSpot connector ships a free, read-only MCP server that drops straight into Claude Desktop or Claude.ai.

Why Claude is a strong fit for HubSpot

  • Long context. Claude can keep your entire pipeline in one conversation instead of paginating.
  • Read-only. The OAuth scope only allows reading contacts, companies, deals, tickets, owners. No edits.
  • Combines with ads. Add Google or LinkedIn Ads alongside and ask "which channel produced the most pipeline last quarter?"

Step 1 — Sign in with HubSpot

Go to connector.wtf/hubspot and click Connect HubSpot. Approve the read-only OAuth scopes for the hub you want exposed.

Step 2 — Copy your MCP URL

You land on a connect screen with a personal MCP URL. Copy it.

Step 3 — Add it to Claude

  • Claude Desktop: Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector → paste the URL → approve the OAuth prompt.
  • Claude.ai: Settings → Connectors → paste the URL.
  • Cursor: add it as an MCP server in your config JSON.

Five prompts to run first

Show pipeline value by stage and owner for this quarter. Which deals are stuck more than 30 days?
Which contacts became MQLs in the last 30 days but have no associated deal? Group by lead source.
Compare deal close rate by lead source over the last 6 months. Where should I invest more?
Owner workload — open deal count and total amount per rep. Flag anyone over capacity.
List companies with an open deal and no activity in 30 days. Suggest a re-engagement plan.

Pair with paid media

Add Google Ads or LinkedIn Ads in the same Claude session and ask Claude to connect ad spend to pipeline created — the report every CMO asks for, without a BI tool. See every connector on the MCP connectors for marketing page.
