What is the whowhy MCP server?

An AI recruiter for founders: it finds the people, writes to them, you meet the ones who say yes. It is made by whowhy.io and listed in the official MCP Registry as io.whowhy/whowhy.

How do I add whowhy to ChatGPT?

ChatGPT can use remote MCP servers as connectors. In ChatGPT settings, under Apps and Connectors, turn on developer mode if asked, create a new connector and paste https://api.whowhy.io/functions/v1/mcp-server/directory.
