In this episode of the AI Agents Podcast, we explore what an MCP (Modal Context Protocol) is and why it’s becoming a game changer for AI-powered productivity.

Demetri Panici and Jotform CEO Aytekin Tank break down how MCP streamlines the way AI tools like ChatGPT and Claude connect with external platforms—from Gmail to Jotform—allowing you to execute complex tasks with simple, natural language prompts.

Think of MCP as the USB-C for APIs: a standardized way for AI to understand and interact with other software, simplifying integrations that once required specialized developers.

From automating form creation to querying your inbox or managing data across apps, MCP unlocks seamless communication between AI and your favorite tools.

With real-world use cases and hands-on demos, this episode shows how MCP is ushering in the next era of agentic AI where you no longer need to learn every interface—just ask your AI assistant in plain language, and let it handle the rest.
