API on request

Does PatientNow have an MCP server or an API? An API on request, and no MCP server.

PatientNow has no MCP server, no ChatGPT or Claude app and no Zapier app. Its REST APIs need "A PatientNow Essentials account with API access enabled" and a gateway key (PatientNow developer docs, checked 9 Nov 2026). Cotlet runs 5 PatientNow tools hosted, over MCP for agents and REST for scripts, in your own login, for the schedule and patient contact details only.

  • PatientNow enables API access per account.
  • PatientNow has no Zapier app.
  • PatientNow has no connector in the ChatGPT apps directory or in Claude.

  2. 2Connect your AI agent

    One address in its settings.

  3. 3Hand it the busywork

    It drafts the work, you OK what customers get.

How to connect PatientNow to your AI agent

  1. 1

    Sign in to PatientNow in a Cloud Browser. Create a Cotlet account, open PatientNow in its Cloud Browser, sign in with your Essentials login and press Enable for agents.

  2. 2

    Add the Cotlet address. Enter https://cotlet.dev/mcp/v1 as the MCP server or connector URL in your agent.

  3. 3

    Let the agent in. Chat apps open a Cotlet sign-in page. Editors, n8n and scripts send an API key made in the console.

PatientNow shares the address https://cotlet.dev/mcp/v1 with every other app you enable, so one connector covers them all. Turned PatientNow on after connecting? Refresh the connector and the 5 tools appear.

Encrypted, revocable

Who can see my PatientNow session, and how do I revoke it?

  • What we store

    Your signed-in PatientNow profile, AES-256-GCM encrypted, in Finland. No password.

  • What your agent gets

    The 5 PatientNow tools, never the session cookie.

  • What the session sees

    What your login sees on the schedule and patient contact details.

  • What no tool touches

    Charts, notes, photos, prescriptions, payments, deletes.

  • If PatientNow signs you out

    You sign in again yourself, in the same Cloud Browser.

  • How to cut access

    Disable for agents, reset the browser, or change your PatientNow password.

Cotlet never types your password: you sign in yourself, and the agent only uses the session. Our site scores A+ on Qualys SSL Labs, securityheaders.com and Mozilla Observatory (live results).

PatientNow MCP server: questions

How do I get access?

How do I connect PatientNow to ChatGPT or Claude?

Sign up at cotlet.dev, log in to PatientNow once in its Cloud Browser and add Cotlet to ChatGPT or Claude, following the steps in your console. No API key is needed. ChatGPT and Claude then work in your PatientNow account through Cotlet, in their phone apps too.

What can ChatGPT do in PatientNow?

With Cotlet, ChatGPT, Claude and other AI agents handle jobs like these in PatientNow: book consults from messages; bring patients back; move a provider's day. You ask in plain words, and anything that reaches other people waits for your OK first.

Is there an official ChatGPT or Claude app for PatientNow?

No. PatientNow has no ChatGPT or Claude connector of its own and PatientNow has no official MCP server (checked 9 Nov 2026). Cotlet is an independent one that works in ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor and any MCP client, on your signed-in account.

Can ChatGPT book appointments in PatientNow?

Yes, with Cotlet. ChatGPT finds the patient, checks free slots and books the service, after your OK.

Can ChatGPT find patients due back in PatientNow?

Yes, with Cotlet. ChatGPT lists patients not back in the time you name, with their last service.

Does Cotlet read charts in PatientNow?

No. The PatientNow tools cover the schedule and patient contact details. Charts, notes and photos are not part of them.

Is the MCP server different from the REST API?

Only in how it is called. Both carry the same 5 tools, inputs, answers, API key and price. Agents use MCP; scripts and HTTP steps use REST.

Is Cotlet affiliated with PatientNow?

No. Cotlet is independent and not affiliated with PatientNow.
