For example, you can use it to connect ChatGPT to Resource Guru so you can ask it questions about what\u2019s in your Resource Guru account. Same goes for pretty much any AI assistant you prefer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To protect your account data, the Resource Guru MCP server is read-only. Think of it like a window into your Resource Guru account, not a control panel. The AI assistant can <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">see<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> all the data it needs to give you answers, but it can\u2019t go in and edit any of that data.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you&#8217;re set up, you unlock a shortcut to any insight you could want about your Resource Guru account data.
