Connect Crito
Set up Crito in Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, or your AI agent.
Add Crito to your assistant once, then use it in your usual chat. There is no software to download. Until Crito is listed in the marketplaces, add it with the server URL below.
Get started
Choose your assistant:
Setup has three parts: add Crito, sign in to your Crito account, and select Crito in a chat. When you sign in, Crito guides you through account creation and plan selection if needed.
Keep this guide open in a separate tab while you set up your assistant. Use the copy button on the server URL to avoid typing it.
If your organization manages your assistant, its administrator may need to allow the connection.

Claude
Custom connectors are available on Claude Free, Pro, Max, Team, and Enterprise. The Free plan allows one custom connector.
Add Crito
- Open Customize, then Connectors.
- Choose + Add, then Add custom connector.

-
Name the connector Crito and paste this server URL:
https://mcp.crito.fyi/mcp
-
Choose Continue to check the server.

- Keep the detected settings and choose Add.
Connect your account
Adding the connector saves its settings. You still need to connect your Crito account.
-
On the screen that says You’re not connected to Crito yet, choose Connect.
-
Follow Crito’s prompts to sign in or create an account, choose a plan if asked, and select Allow access.
-
Return to Claude. A Disconnect button on the Crito connector page confirms that your account is connected.
Use Crito in a chat
The connector page shows Tool permissions. With Needs approval selected, Claude asks before using a tool. You can keep this setting and approve requests as they appear.
- Start a chat. Open +, then Connectors, and turn on Crito for that conversation if it is not already enabled.
- Ask a research question, such as Find R v Jordan, 2016 SCC 27, and include a source link.
- Approve tool use when Claude asks, then check the sources in its answer.
You can name Crito in your question to make your choice of source clear, but it is not required.
Claude Team and Enterprise
An organization owner must add Crito first. Open Organization settings → Connectors, choose Add → Custom → Web, enter the server URL above, and choose Continue. Keep the detected sign-in settings, then choose Add.
Each member then opens Customize → Connectors, finds Crito, and chooses Connect to sign in with their own Crito account.
For more help, see Claude’s custom connector guide.
