AI-Powered Development Workflow
ISO Mate includes a built-in MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that lets AI assistants and developer tools interact with your entire platform directly. Manage issues, tasks, incidents, compliance frameworks, test cases, help desk tickets, and more without leaving your IDE.
What is MCP?
The Model Context Protocol is an open standard that allows AI tools to connect to external data sources and services. ISO Mate’s MCP server exposes 12 tool providers covering every major module, giving any MCP-compatible client full access to your project data.

Contacts Tools
Manage your contact directory with full CRUD operations. Search contacts by email, name, or company.
Billing Tools (Read-Only)
View subscription status, plan details, and invoice history. Billing management tools are excluded from API token scopes for security.
Authentication
MCP access is secured with scoped API tokens. Generate a token from the profile menu, create an API Token, assign it the permissions it needs, and configure your MCP client with the token. Each token is scoped to a single account for data isolation. Billing management scopes are excluded from API tokens by design.
Getting Started
- Go to Profile > API Tokens in the top nav bar and create a new token with the required scopes.
- Configure your MCP client (e.g., your IDE or AI assistant) with the server URL and token.
- Start managing your entire ISO Mate workspace directly from your development environment.
