Who it is for
Existing Readwise and Reader subscribers with a sizeable highlight archive.
Readwise
Semantic search and triage across a Readwise library
Overview
What Readwise does
This is the official app for Readwise and its read-later companion, Reader. The main function is semantic search: finding highlights and saved articles by meaning rather than by exact word match, across a whole library at once.
Beyond search, the record claims rough parity with what Reader itself does. The examples named are working through the inbox, reorganising the library and catching up on feeds, all requested in conversation instead of through the Reader interface.
The library it searches is the account holder's own, so what comes back depends on what has been saved and highlighted over time.
What stands out
Search runs over saved material by meaning, and library management happens in the same conversation.

Where Readwise is listed
Readwise Inc. ships this on both marketplaces: Readwise is listed in the Claude connectors directory and in the ChatGPT apps directory, under the same publisher domain.
Only 392 of the 3,150 products in this directory are listed in both marketplaces. One MCP server can serve both surfaces; what differs is each platform's listing and review process.

Claude listing
In the Claude connectors directory
Readwise publishes 22 tools to Claude, deeper than 72.2% of the 1,253 Claude-listed connectors.
The median Claude-listed connector filed under Productivity publishes 12, so this one runs 10 tools above its bucket's median and ranks 133rd of 462 by tool count.
It falls in the 21-50 tools band, which holds 20% of the Claude directory.
Readwise publishes a remote MCP endpoint. Claude connects to it over HTTP; there is nothing to install locally.
Every connector in the Claude directory is remote, all 1,253 of them, so transport is not a differentiator there.

Readwise carries partner verification in the Claude directory, which 474 of 1,253 listings do (37.8%). That is a review step past self-publishing, not an Anthropic-built server.
In the publisher's words
How Readwise Inc. describes it
Access your full library of Readwise highlights and Reader documents: search them semantically, save new documents, create new highlights, move documents, tag them, etc. Using the exposed tools, you can trivially triage your library, organize your library, and give Claude access to every word of everything you've read.
