Use Airtable from your AI

Read, search, create and update Airtable records, tables and bases through Airtable's official MCP server. Connect by signing in; several accounts supported.

Arlet makes Airtable's official MCP server available from the AI client you already use. There is no OAuth integration to create on the Airtable side. Signing in completes the connection.

Beyond searching, adding and updating records, the AI can create tables and fields, draft automations and submit forms. What it can read or write is exactly what your Airtable account can. The available tools are those provided by Airtable's official server.
