How to add Gary to your AI app
Gary is a remote MCP server, the open standard Claude, ChatGPT and other AI apps use to reach outside tools. No API key, no account, nothing to install.
- Open Claude and go to Settings › Connectors.
- Choose Add custom connector.
- Name it Gary and paste the URL. Leave the advanced settings empty.
https://api.gogary.com.au/v1/mcp - In a new chat, switch Gary on from the tools menu and ask for a quote.
Custom connectors depend on your Claude plan. If you can’t see the option, your plan may not include it.
Things you can ask
Start anywhere. It asks for whatever is still missing, a few questions at a time.
“Get me home and contents quotes from Gary for my house in Surrey Hills.”
“I’m a management consultant in Melbourne. Get me professional indemnity quotes from Gary.”
“I run a small accounting firm with 12 staff. Get me cyber insurance quotes from Gary.”
“What does each insurer’s car policy say about hail damage? Quote the wording.”
“A tree came down on my car last night. Lodge a claim on my Gary policy.”
“Show me my Gary policies and where to get my certificate of insurance.”
What happens after you ask
Our FSG and the duty notice
Your AI is given our Financial Services Guide and your duty to the insurer, in our words, to show you before the questions start.
The questions, in plain English
The same questions as our form. A car is looked up by rego, a home’s details come from public records for you to check, and a business is found on the ABN register.
The insurers price it
Each price comes back whole: premium, our fee, the excess, and the insurer’s PDS and TMD.
You finish here
Your AI hands you a link. You check every answer, confirm your duty, pick a price and pay on this site. A person places it.
Common questions
Rather fill in a form? Same questions, same insurers, about five minutes.
Can my AI buy the policy for me?
No. Claude or ChatGPT can get prices and give you a link to your quote. Buying only happens on gogary.com.au, where you check the answers given, confirm your duty to the insurer, read the PDS and TMD, and pay. Your card details never go anywhere near the AI.
Can my AI read the policy wording?
Yes. Gary gives it each insurer’s PDS, Target Market Determination, Key Facts Sheet and policy wording, plus our Financial Services Guide, and lets it search the wording and quote the exact passage with its page. Ask it “what does each policy say about hail?” and check the page it cites.
Is this advice?
Not from Gary. Everything Gary gives your AI is general information: prices, excesses, and the insurers’ own documents. It doesn’t consider your objectives, financial situation or needs, and Gary doesn’t say which policy suits you. If you ask your AI to weigh up the wordings for you, that’s your own research with your own assistant. Read the PDS and decide what fits.
What happens to what I tell my AI?
The answers it saves to your quote are sent to Gary and handled under our privacy policy, exactly as if you’d typed them into our form. What you type in Claude or ChatGPT is also handled by Anthropic or OpenAI under your account with them.
What can it quote?
Private cars, home and contents (including landlords), professional indemnity and cyber, today. Prestige cars and homes over about $3 million also go to a specialist insurer that quotes through a broker, so for those finish on the website. Business-owned cars and the other business covers still go through the website for now.
Does it cost anything?
No. The connector is free, there’s nothing to sign up for, and the prices are the same ones our form shows.
Do I need a Gary account?
Not to get a quote. The quote is saved as you go, and the link your AI gives you opens it. You’ll set up your account when you buy, like anyone else.
Can it see my policies or lodge a claim?
Yes, if you’re already a Gary customer. Ask about your policies and your app shows a Connect button. It opens your Gary account, where you sign in as usual and tap Allow. Your assistant can then show your quotes, policies, documents, claims and anything owing, lodge a claim, send us a change request, or add your lender to a quote, checking the details with you first. It never sees your password, can’t pay or cancel anything, and you can disconnect it any time under Account.
Gary isn’t showing up in my app. What do I check?
Make sure the connector URL is exactly the one above, with nothing after /mcp, and that the connector is switched on for this conversation. Some apps need a new conversation before a new connector appears. In ChatGPT, adding a connector needs developer mode in its settings. If it still doesn’t appear, remove the connector and add it again.
It says it can’t reach Gary, or a quote is taking a while.
Some insurers take up to a minute or so to price, so your assistant may check back. If it still can’t get prices, ask it for the quote link and finish on our website: your answers are saved. If it keeps failing, contact us and tell us what you asked for.
Connect isn’t working, or I can’t get into my account.
Allow it in the browser window that opens, then go back to the conversation. If the window says the request has expired, ask your assistant again for a fresh one. If it keeps asking you to connect, disconnect it under Account in your Gary account and connect again. To reach your account without an assistant, sign in on our website.
