Needl isn't in the directories yet, but you can connect it today with one link. It takes about a minute.

Needl's link

https://connect.needlvinyl.app/mcp

Open Connectors. In Claude on the web or the desktop app, go to Customize, then Connectors.
Add a custom connector. Select +, then Add custom connector. Name it Needl and paste the link above.
Sign in to Needl. Select Connect, sign in with Apple and choose what Claude can see.
Turn it on in a chat. Select + in a chat, then Connectors, and switch on Needl. It's in the Claude app on your iPhone too.

Works on every Claude plan. Free includes one custom connector.

Your assistant will mention it hasn't reviewed Needl yet. That's expected until Needl is in its directory. Found a bug? Email support@needlvinyl.app.

What it can do

Your whole shelf. Now on speaking terms.

Your collection, on call.

What you own by an artist, what you added last, what you've played most. Ask it like you'd ask a friend.

Wishlist, sorted by want.

See what you want most, bump a record to Holy Grail, add a pressing, or mark one as bought.

Can't decide? Shuffle.

Just like the app, it plays through your whole shelf before anything repeats.

Every spin, counted.

Vinyl and CD sessions, Apple Music and Spotify plays, your top artists. All in one answer.

Pressed.

Pressed, on demand.

Your monthly recap, top records and top artists, whenever you ask.

Right now, on your turntable.

Needl's Listen hears what's playing, so your assistant knows too. Ask what's on and get the song, the record and the pressing.

Speaks your language.

Ask in yours. Needl answers in kind, with cards in 21 languages.

Only your account. An assistant only ever sees your own records. Never anyone else's.
Hands off your shelf. It can't edit or remove a record you own, and it changes things only when you ask.
No price tags. Market prices stay in the Needl app. Assistants don't get them.
Unplug anytime. Disconnect Needl in your assistant's settings. Your records stay right where they are.

What an assistant uses to answer you is handled by its provider, under its terms. More in our Privacy Policy and Terms.

Questions? Answers.

Today, if you add it yourself: early access works in Claude and ChatGPT. Needl is also in review for their directories and Muse's. As each goes live, you'll find Needl there, ready to connect in a tap.

Connecting Needl is free with any Needl account. Your assistant may have its own plan requirements.

Never. You sign in on Needl's own page, and the assistant only gets the access you allow.

It can't edit or remove records you own. It can change your wishlist and use Shuffle, only when you ask, and only if you allowed it.

Disconnect Needl in your assistant, connect again, and choose differently on the sign-in page.

Email support@needlvinyl.app or visit Support. Tell us which assistant you use and what you asked.

Go on. Ask your records anything.

Needl is free to download on the App Store. Your assistant is next.
