Hosted MCP server to send SMS and email, buy phone numbers, and inspect message delivery directly through AI coding assistants.
Open on GitHubWhat Pingram does
This hosted server bridges MCP-compatible clients with the Pingram communication platform. Once connected, your agent can dispatch SMS messages, deliver outbound emails, browse available phone numbers, and inspect delivery records using tracking identifiers. The toolset also covers sender domain setup and US A2P 10DLC brand registrations.
Setup avoids local API token storage because the connector runs on Pingram infrastructure and delegates authentication to your web account. You choose an endpoint based on where your account lives: https://mcp.pingram.io for the US, https://mcp.ca.pingram.io for Canada, or https://mcp.eu.pingram.io for Europe. Without signing in via email, Google, or Microsoft on the first connection, the agent will not be able to interact with the service.
What it helps with
- send SMS alerts and transaction emails
- check dispatch logs with a tracking identifier
- browse, acquire, and list inbound phone numbers
- configure sender domains and message mailboxes
Example prompts for the agent
- Send an SMS notification to +12025550199 with the message "Your build completed"
- Search for available US numbers in area code 212 and display their costs
- Look up the dispatch status for tracking ID trk_12345
