# Smartlead documentation

Research date: 2026-09-02

Documentation coverage: partial.

Reference index, not a mirror of complete vendor documentation. Retrieved pages do not prove the MCP works.

## What it does

Cold email outreach platform for managing campaigns across many mailboxes, with built-in deliverability infrastructure and a unified reply inbox.

## Access and connection

MCP support: official

Access requirements: paid

Authentication: api key, passed as the user_api_key query parameter on the SSE endpoint URL; SSE transport only (the help article says streamable HTTP is not supported), and the vendor FAQ says only Claude Desktop is supported for now

Research checked: 2026-09-02

These details come from catalog research. Check vendor sources for current setup instructions; this is not proof of a tested connection.
