Who it is for
Sales teams with an Apollo workspace who prospect and run outbound sequences.
Overview
What Apollo.io does
Apollo is a sales database and outbound platform. Its connector lets ChatGPT operate within a linked Apollo workspace, searching accounts and contacts, qualifying them against Apollo data, enriching thin records, and summarising the context behind an account.
Actions named in the listing include building lists, logging notes, generating tasks, and assembling outbound messages from existing sequences. Team rules and workspace access govern what the connector can reach, and it retrieves only what a request asks for.
Output is described as ready for review and personalisation before it is sent, which places a human step between the model and the recipient. The sample prompt looks for United States fintech companies that have posted jobs in the previous ninety days.
What stands out
Workspace permissions and team rules constrain what it reaches, and drafted outbound is handed over for review before sending.

Where Apollo.io is listed
Apollo.io ships this on both marketplaces: Apollo.io 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
Apollo.io publishes 13 tools to Claude. That is a mid-sized surface: 54.3% of the 1,253 Claude-listed connectors expose fewer.
The median Claude-listed connector filed under Sales & Marketing publishes 18, so this one sits 5 tools below its bucket's median, 59th of 94.
It falls in the 11-20 tools band, which holds 22.5% of the Claude directory.
Apollo.io 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.

Apollo.io 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 Apollo.io describes it
Connect Apollo to Claude so you can prospect and take action from a single conversation. Search Apollo's database to find the right people and companies, then enrich records to reveal verified contact details when you're ready. Create or update contacts, and add or remove contacts from existing sequences to keep outbound moving.
