Phonotheca MCP server

Remote MCP server for Phonotheca, the archive for recorded interviews. Connect Claude or any MCP client to your workspace and search every transcript, browse projects and interviews, and read speaker-labelled transcripts with timestamps. Passages come back with their speaker, interview, project, and timestamp attached, so a quote arrives with its citation.

The connection is read-only. It cannot upload audio, start transcription, edit a transcript, or delete anything.

Endpoint

https://phonotheca.com/api/mcp

Streamable HTTP, stateless. Authentication is a bearer token created in Settings, shown once and revocable there at any time. A free account is enough to try it; the archive, search, and export stay open permanently.

What it does

search_transcripts

Full-text search across every transcript, optional project filter. Returns cited passages.

A project's interviews with duration, language, and status.

Data handling

Requests hit the same EU-resident application and database as the workspace. Transcript text returned to an MCP client goes to whatever assistant you connected, under that assistant's terms. Revoking the token ends access immediately. Details: phonotheca.com/mcp.
