# Connect Windsurf to Speak AI


Windsurf reaches your Speak AI workspace through the MCP server, so it can read your recordings, transcripts and insights while you work.

## What you need

A Speak AI account, and Windsurf. Some setup paths also need an API key, which you create at [app.speakai.co/developers/apikeys](https://app.speakai.co/developers/apikeys).

Every client connects to the same address:

```text
https://api.speakai.co/v1/mcp
```

## How do you connect Windsurf?

1. Get your API key at [app.speakai.co/developers/apikeys](https://app.speakai.co/developers/apikeys)

1. Add the config below to `~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json`

1. Restart Windsurf. The Speak AI tools appear in the **Cascade** panel

## What does the config look like?

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
"speakai": {
  "serverUrl": "https://api.speakai.co/v1/mcp",
  "headers": {
    "Authorization": "Bearer your-api-key-here"
  }
}
  }
}
```

## What can you ask for once it is connected?

Ask in your own words. The server exposes 112 tools, so most questions about your workspace resolve without naming one:

- "Summarise my last customer interview."
- "Find every mention of pricing across this month's calls."
- "Upload this recording and tell me the main themes."
