What is MCP on Sherpo?

MCP, the Model Context Protocol, is an open standard that lets an assistant such as Claude or ChatGPT use tools from another service. On Sherpo, every product opens through MCP to the customers who bought it. Their assistant can read what they unlocked and answer from it, for as long as they have access.

How it works

Their AI, connected to what you know.

An assistant on its own answers from what it remembers. Connected to your store through MCP, it works from your material.

  1. Your customer’s AIClaude, ChatGPT or any other MCP client.
  2. Your store’s MCPMakes your content and data available as tools.
  3. Your contentThe full context of what you published, not what an AI remembers from the internet.
Upsell

Keep it to a tier.

Every product opens through MCP. Keep that access to one tier, and AI access becomes a reason to upgrade.

  • Open to a tierOpen MCP to everyone who bought the product, or keep it to one tier as an upsell, such as AI access on Premium.
  • Access follows the purchaseOnly customers who paid can read the content. On a subscription, access ends when the paid period does.
  • Your content and promptsTheir assistant answers from what you published, such as your course. On each product’s MCP tab, you can also add prompts they run as slash commands, each with its own arguments.
  • One connect page for your siteCustomers connect at your site’s address followed by /mcp (yoursite.sherpo.io/mcp, or yourbrand.com/mcp on your own domain). Your site’s /mcp/help page, linked from every product, has the address to paste and the steps for Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini CLI, Claude Code and Codex.
From the first message

What a connected assistant can always do.

Once a customer connects, their assistant works through the Customer MCP behind every Sherpo storefront. It can do all of this without you setting anything up. What each product adds is its content and your prompts.

  • Browse and buyList your products, read their descriptions, and buy or unlock one.
  • See what they have unlockedTheir products and subscriptions, with the plan, the price and when it renews.
  • Learn from itWhere their tier includes MCP, list the lessons of a course they unlocked and, on Sherpo Pro, read a lesson’s published transcript.
  • Certificates and purchasesTheir certificates, and their own transactions, newest first.

Questions about MCP.

Still curious? Talk to us

What is MCP on Sherpo?

Every product you sell opens through MCP to the customers who bought it. Their AI assistant reads what they unlocked and answers from it. You can keep it to one tier as an upsell.

What do my customers need?

An AI assistant that supports MCP, such as Claude or ChatGPT. They connect at your site’s address followed by /mcp (yoursite.sherpo.io/mcp, or yourbrand.com/mcp on your own domain). Your site’s /mcp/help page, linked from every product, has the address to paste and the steps for each assistant.

What happens when a subscription ends?

Their assistant loses access when the paid period ends. You don’t have to do anything.

How is this different from running my store with AI?

Sherpo has 2 MCPs. The Merchant MCP is for you: your own assistant manages your store. The Customer MCP is for your customers: their assistants browse, buy and read what they unlocked. Every product you sell is open through it to the customers who bought it.

Which AI assistants does it work with?

Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini CLI, Claude Code, Codex and any other assistant that supports MCP, the Model Context Protocol. Your site’s /mcp/help page lists the steps for each.

What can their assistant read through MCP?

What the customer unlocked. For a course, that means its lessons and, on Pro, their transcripts, so the assistant answers from what you taught. On each product’s MCP tab, you can also add prompts they run as slash commands.

Can I keep MCP access to one tier?

Yes. Keep a product’s MCP access to one tier and it works as an upsell. You can set a different tier for each channel: a course open on the web for Plus can be open through MCP only for Premium.

Can an AI read content a customer hasn’t bought?

No. The assistant signs in as the customer, so it reads what that customer has unlocked and nothing more. It can also list your products, buy or unlock one, and see the customer’s own transactions, subscriptions and certificates.

Does Sherpo take a cut of my sales?

No. Sherpo takes 0% of your sales on every plan. You pay a flat price, plus your payment provider’s standard processing fees.

Which plan do I need for MCP?

Lite, at $19 a month, is enough to start, and Sherpo hosts your site on every plan. Pro, at $49 a month, adds your own domain, white-label (no Sherpo branding), a self-hosted option in your own codebase and the full feature set.
