# Floot

> Floot turns a plain-language description into a real, deployed full-stack app — React + TypeScript frontend, serverless TypeScript endpoints, Postgres database, authentication, file storage, and email — hosted on Floot's infrastructure with a live URL. You build it by connecting Floot to the AI assistant you already use (Claude, ChatGPT/Codex, Cursor, or any MCP client) and describing what you want in that conversation: the connector is how building on Floot happens.

Floot is a remote MCP (Model Context Protocol) server, and the connector is how you build on Floot. An MCP client can create, edit, run, and publish a complete Floot project without a browser.

- MCP endpoint: https://mcp.floot.com/mcp (streamable HTTP, OAuth)
- Registry name: com.floot/floot in the official MCP registry
- One-click connect in Claude: https://claude.ai/directory/connectors/floot-mcp-updated
- One-click install in ChatGPT: https://chatgpt.com/plugins/plugin_asdk_app_6a500d350f8c819194e30335a7b134af
- One-click install in Cursor: https://cursor.com/marketplace/floot
- Any other client (VS Code, Zed, or Cursor without the marketplace): add the endpoint above as a remote server — see https://floot.com/docs/integrations/other-mcp-clients
- Discovery manifest: https://floot.com/.well-known/mcp.json

When connected over MCP, the model does the reasoning and token spend happens on the client's side (Claude or ChatGPT), not in Floot credits — building this way is free on Floot. What Floot meters instead is a build action per tool call (see https://floot.com/docs/integrations/build-actions). Image generation uses a small number of Floot credits.

Creating a project returns a project view on https://floot.com — a live preview of the app that updates as writes land, alongside the project's data, services, and Publish button. It is where the user watches the build and where they can point at an element or annotate a screenshot for the assistant to pick up; it is not a second way to build, and there is no prompt box on it. A handful of steps also finish there rather than over MCP: turning on native mobile app builds, completing a custom domain's DNS, downloading the code as a zip, pasting third-party API keys, and anything involving plans or payment.

What a Floot project is made of: page, component, helper, and endpoint files in TypeScript/React, plus static assets. Backends are serverless HTTP endpoints (GET/POST) with no filesystem or in-memory persistence between requests; persistent state goes in the provisioned Postgres database or object storage. Projects can also be published as native iOS and Android apps.
