I Built a Free MCP for Follow Up Boss. Go Have Fun.

I built an AI layer for my CRM over a weekend. It has 159 tools. It is on GitHub. It is free. Go grab it.

The thing is called an MCP server (Model Context Protocol, the open standard Anthropic released that lets AI tools like Claude actually read and act inside the systems you already use). Mine connects Follow Up Boss to Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, or anything else that speaks MCP. You ask your CRM a question in plain English. It answers. You tell it to do something. It does it.

What that looks like day to day. "Who in my investor stage has gone quiet for three weeks." "Pull the full thread on the Smiths, every note and call and text, summarize it." "Update these five deals to under contract." Two seconds and you have a paragraph back, instead of clicking through three screens like a sucker.

I sat on this thing for 11 months because I was using it myself and did not think to share it. Then the FUB API went down one day, and while I was waiting for it to come back I had this thought. Why am I keeping this to myself. So I put it on GitHub.

One honest note before you go. The AI works as well as your data hygiene. If your buy box lives in your head or in conversation notes, this is not going to find those people. If you have tagged your investors properly (multifamily, flips, STR, price range, zip), this is magic. Either way, lets be real, you have been putting that tagging off for a year. This is a good reason to fix it.

Setup is not one-click. You need an FUB account, an API key, an AI tool that supports MCP (Claude is what I use). The docs walk you through it. Takes under an hour if you are at all comfortable with this stuff. If you are not, that is fine, the tool will still be there when you are ready.

It is free, it is open source, and you can find the repo, the docs, and the install guide at neuhausre.com/fub-mcp

Go have fun.
