Claude connector

What it does

The knowswho connector lets Claude search your LinkedIn connections and your friends' shared networks in plain English, then request warm intros through mutual friends.

Before you connect

  1. Create a knowswho account at https://www.knowswho.com/login
  2. Upload your LinkedIn data export at Connect LinkedIn
  3. Optional: add friends on knowswho to search their networks too

Connect in Claude

In Claude, open Settings → Connectors and add a custom connector with this exact MCP URL (copy/paste — do not omit www if shown):

https://www.knowswho.com/api/mcp

Important: If your site's apex domain redirects to www, register the www MCP URL in Claude. Cross-host redirects drop bearer tokens and cause “Authorization with the MCP server failed” even when OAuth completes.

OAuth metadata: https://www.knowswho.com/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource/api/mcp

Example prompts

  • “Who in my network knows VCs investing in climate tech?”
  • “Find product leaders at FAANG in my friends' networks.”
  • “Request an intro to Jane Doe through Alex Kim.”
