Set up Mack in Perplexity

perplexity.ai on a computer, on plans that include custom connectors. Setup takes about 2 minutes. Your personal connector address is on the welcome page you saw right after checkout. It looks like https://aicitationguide.com/mcp/<your access code>.

Before you start

• A computer with perplexity.ai.
• A Perplexity plan that includes custom connectors. On Enterprise plans, an admin must first turn on Allow members to add custom connectors.

Steps

1. Go to perplexity.ai and sign in.
2. Open Plugins in the left sidebar. If you don’t see it, go to Customize → Connectors (or Settings → Connectors).
3. Click Add custom → Connector → Add MCP connector (or + Custom connector), then choose Remote.
4. Name: Mack. MCP Server URL: https://aicitationguide.com/mcp/<your access code>
5. Authentication: None. Transport: Streamable HTTP.
6. Tick the box about the risks of custom connectors, then click Add.
7. Click the Mack card to turn it on.
8. Try it: Use Mack to rewrite my homepage, https://yourwebsite.com, so AI search engines quote it.

Good to know

• Start each request with “Use Mack to…” so Perplexity calls Mack instead of searching the web.
• If you don’t see an option for custom connectors, your plan doesn’t include them yet. Use Mack in Claude or ChatGPT instead, or ask us for help.
