ApexVol MCP server for ChatGPT

A ChatGPT MCP connector
for live options data.

ApexVol works as a ChatGPT MCP connector. MCP is an open standard and ChatGPT accepts remote MCP servers as custom connectors, so the URL that connects Claude connects ChatGPT too.

The MCP and API come with every paid plan. Each tool follows your plan: Basic covers chains and strategies, Premium adds IV, GEX, flow and screens, Pro adds earnings, risk and the scanners. 7 days free, card required.

The hosted server, recommended

Connected with
one URL.

ApexVol runs the server. ChatGPT signs in to your ApexVol account through the browser, so nothing is installed and no token is copied anywhere.

  1. In ChatGPT open Settings, then Connectors, then Advanced, and turn on Developer mode.
  2. Choose Create. Name it ApexVol, paste https://apexvol.com/mcp-server as the MCP server URL, and pick OAuth for authentication.
  3. ChatGPT sends you to apexvol.com. Sign in and approve the read-only request.
  4. In a new chat, enable the ApexVol connector and ask: build a 16-delta iron condor on NVDA and show the strikes, max profit, max loss and breakevens.

Build a 16-delta iron condor on NVDA and show the strikes, max profit, max loss and breakevens.

ChatGPT calls the tool and answers from live data.
  • Read-only. The connector can read options analytics on your behalf and nothing else. It cannot see billing or change your account.
  • Use the apex form of the URL, apexvol.com without www. The www form fails the audience check on purpose.
  • Approving creates a token you can see and revoke under Account, then API Access.
  • Custom MCP connectors in ChatGPT are available on its paid plans and require developer mode to be switched on.

The local client, for developers

Or run it
on your machine.

ChatGPT connects to remote servers only, so the hosted connector is the route. The local apexvol-mcp client is for editors and the Claude apps.

Tokens are created under Account, then API Access, shown once, and rotate in one click if one ever leaks. The same token calls the REST API from your own code.

Questions

Before you
paste the URL.

Does ChatGPT support MCP connectors?

Yes. ChatGPT supports remote MCP servers as custom connectors once developer mode is on. Add ApexVol with the same URL Claude uses, sign in on apexvol.com, and every ApexVol tool is available in chat.

How do I add an MCP server to ChatGPT?

Turn on developer mode in ChatGPT's settings, create a custom connector, paste https://apexvol.com/mcp-server as the server URL and choose OAuth. ChatGPT sends you to apexvol.com to sign in and approve. ChatGPT renames these menus from time to time, so if a label differs, look for developer mode and an option to add a connector or MCP server.

Which ChatGPT plans allow custom connectors?

ChatGPT's paid plans, with developer mode enabled under Settings, then Connectors, then Advanced. The ApexVol side is included with every paid ApexVol plan.

Can ChatGPT run the local apexvol-mcp client?

No. ChatGPT does not start local processes, so the hosted server is the only route. The local client is for Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf and Gemini CLI.

Is my ApexVol login shared with OpenAI?

No. ChatGPT receives an access token scoped to read options analytics, issued after you approve on apexvol.com. Your password never leaves apexvol.com, and the token can be revoked under Account, then API Access.

Other clients
