Early accessMCP server for ChatGPT
Cold email MCP server for ChatGPT and the OpenAI API
Give ChatGPT or your OpenAI agent the tools to run cold email: domains, mailboxes, warm-up, campaigns and replies. It quotes the order, you pay on Stripe, and it reports back until the campaign is live.
- You approve every order
- Payment on Stripe, never in chat
- $2.50 per mailbox a month
We need 20 mailboxes for a new outbound team. Use 5 domains that look like northwind.io. Quote it.

Can ChatGPT run cold email through MCP?
Yes, in early access, through the OpenAI Responses API and Codex CLI with an API key. The ChatGPT app needs OAuth sign-in, which ships after early access.
Status: early access · Updated 28 September 2026
How it works
Cold email in ChatGPT, step by step
- 1
Connect once
Add the server to a Responses API call with your key in a header. The model picks the Outreach2day tools it needs.
- 2
Quote, confirm, pay
The model returns our quote to your user or your app. A yes creates a Stripe checkout link; payment happens on Stripe.
- 3
Follow the order
The model polls the order until domains, DNS and mailboxes are done, then starts warm-up.
- 4
Run the campaign
After warm-up it builds the sequence, launches it and pulls replies and per-mailbox stats into your workflow.

Things to ask ChatGPT
Plain language is enough. The agent picks the tools and asks before anything costs money.
- We need 20 mailboxes on 5 domains that look like northwind.io. Quote it.
- List every mailbox with its warm-up inbox rate, lowest first.
- Import contacts.csv into the Q4 campaign and run the preflight check.
- Summarize this week's replies by campaign: interested, not now, unsubscribe.
- Export the 12 warm mailboxes on northwindhq.com to our Instantly workspace.
Tools
23 tools, from domains to replies
Tools ship to early-access workspaces first. Today the REST API covers workspaces, domain checks and warm-up status.

ChatGPT quotes. You pay.
Money moves only on a Stripe page you open. ChatGPT can prepare an order, never complete one.
ChatGPT can
- Check domains, quote an order and send you the Stripe link
- Connect domains you already own and give you the DNS records
- Start warm-up and tell you when each mailbox is ready
- Write and check the sequence, import contacts, launch after warm-up
- Read replies and per-mailbox stats, pause a campaign that trips bounce limits
- Export warm mailboxes to Instantly or Smartlead after you confirm
ChatGPT cannot
- Charge a card: every payment happens on a Stripe page you open
- Launch a campaign before warm-up is done and the preflight check passes
- Delete domains or mailboxes, cancel your plan or rotate passwords
- Show mailbox passwords, SMTP/IMAP credentials or API keys in the chat
- Order more than the first-order and daily spend limits of your workspace

Can I add the Outreach2day MCP server to the ChatGPT app?
ChatGPT developer mode connects remote MCP servers that sign in with OAuth, on paid plans. We add OAuth sign-in after early access. The OpenAI Responses API and Codex CLI work with an API key in a header.
Do I need to write code to use it with OpenAI?
With the Responses API, one tool entry in your request is enough. The model reads the tool list from our server and calls the tools itself.
Can ChatGPT spend money on my behalf?
No. ChatGPT can ask for a quote and hand you a Stripe checkout link. You pay on the Stripe page yourself. Quotes are priced by Outreach2day, and new workspaces have first-order and daily spend limits.
Is the Outreach2day MCP server available now?
In early access. Book a call and we add your workspace to the first group. The REST API is open to every account today: create a key in the app and call it from any script or agent.
What does it cost?
The MCP server comes with your Outreach2day account. You pay for what the agent orders: $2.50 per mailbox a month, domains billed yearly, both shown in the quote before you pay.
Which tools does the server have?
Tools for pricing and account status, domains, orders and Stripe checkout, mailboxes and warm-up, campaigns, replies and stats, and export to Instantly or Smartlead. The full list is on this page.
Can I use domains I already own?
Yes. The agent connects them and returns the DNS records to set at your registrar. Connecting your own domains is free.
How long until new mailboxes can send?
About 14 days of warm-up. The agent reports each mailbox's warm-up stage and ready date, and launch is refused until warm-up is done.
Can I keep sending from Instantly or Smartlead?
Yes. The agent exports warm mailboxes to your Instantly or Smartlead workspace after you confirm, and you keep your sequences there.
Does ChatGPT see my mailbox passwords?
No. No tool returns passwords, SMTP or IMAP credentials, or API keys. Export to a sequencer is the only step that moves credentials, and it needs your confirmation.
What happens if part of an order fails?
The order shows which domain or mailbox failed, with a link to support. Our team retries or refunds that item.
