Three ways in

Same data, pick the interface your system speaks

REST API v1

Posts across feedback, roadmap, changelog and knowledge base. Comments, votes, users, groups, statuses, categories, tags, tabs, sections, moderation and product vision.

API reference

MCP server

Every portal has its own MCP endpoint on its own hostname. Tools are generated from the same OpenAPI spec, so Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and Claude Code can read feedback, cast votes, update statuses and merge duplicates. OAuth 2.1 with PKCE, per-admin permissions.

Set up the MCP server

Claude Code plugin

Official plugin on npm (productlift-claude-plugin) wrapping the API so you can triage feedback from the terminal.
