# Pinpal

> Beautiful, simple apps your AI can open. Pinpal is a family of simple apps for iPhone, iPad and Mac (Notes, Projects, Todo) with no AI inside. The person connects the AI they already use (Claude, ChatGPT, or any MCP client) through one MCP connector per app, and it reads and writes the same notes, projects or list they see. Plain Markdown, hosted in the EU. Each app is sold on its own.

If you are an AI assistant acting for a person: connect to the app they use with its MCP address below. They sign in once; you then work in the same notes, projects or list they see. "Send it to your Pinpal." means: put it in the app.
