Connect your AI to Verve

What connecting does

A connected AI app is a second way into your Verve account, next to the website. It can look at your balances, positions and history, read markets and set alerts, and, where you allow it, trade and send funds.

• Paste the link into your AI app and sign in to Verve when it asks.
• You see a permission screen on verve.family. Nothing is connected until you approve it.
• By default the app gets full access: it can read your balances, trade and send funds on every chain without asking you each time. You can lower access per chain (ask first, or read only) before you approve or any time later.
• Revoke a connection in Settings and it stops working immediately. Changing your password also ends every connection.
• Your keys stay yours. The AI never sees a private key, and Verve never exposes one through a connection.

Access you choose, per chain

Full access (recommended by default): read your balances, trade and send funds on every chain without asking you again. Anyone who controls this app can move your money. You can lower this below or revoke it any time in Settings.

Connect step by step

1. Copy your link
   The link is https://api.verve.family/mcp. It is the same for every app. It also sits at the top of Settings, Connect your AI.
2. Add it to your AI app
   Paste it where the app asks for an MCP server or a remote connector. The sections below have the exact steps for each app.
3. Sign in to Verve
   The app opens a Verve page in your browser. Sign in if you are not already.
4. Choose what the app may do
   The permission screen shows full access by default, with a table to lower it to ask-first or read-only on any chain. Nothing is connected until you approve.
5. Approve
   Approve and the app is connected. Change or remove it later in Settings, Connect your AI.

What an AI app can do

• Read: wallets, balances, portfolio, positions, trade history and rewards.
• Markets: search tokens, token details, holders, charts, trades, trending, Pulse feeds and native coin prices.
• Account: create and delete alerts, manage your watchlist, mark notifications read, post a thesis.
• Trade: quote and swap, cross-chain cash buys and bridges, migration snipes. Only on chains where your access is full.
• Send: transfers, withdrawals and claims. Only on chains where your access is full and sending is allowed.
• Trading features follow the same release gates as the website. A tool that is not live for your account answers that clearly instead of acting.

What an AI app can never do

Whatever access you give, these stay with you on verve.family:

• Export or import private keys or recovery phrases
• Change your password, e-mail or security settings
• Delete your account or accept legal terms for you
• Connect Telegram, Discord or X, or manage developer API keys
• Raise its own access: only you can, on verve.family

Fees

A trade made through a connected app is a normal spot swap: the same fee as a trade you place yourself (0.9%, or 0.81% with a sign-up referral) and the same cashback rules. Verve adds no extra charge for using an AI app.

Staying in control

Only connect apps you trust: anything with full access can move your funds. Revoke a connection in Settings and it stops immediately. Changing your password ends every connection. Verve shows the recent activity of each connection and sends you a notice when a connected app trades or sends.

Token names, descriptions and posts that an AI app reads are written by third parties. A good AI app treats them as text to read, not instructions to follow.

Availability

Verve is in private beta. Order execution unlocks chain by chain as each release gate passes, so some features described here may not be live for your account yet. Connections open as each release gate passes.
