Export the selected filenames and summarize the requested changes beside the images they refer to. Cotlet never sees or stores your password. ## How to connect picdrop to your AI agent 1. **Sign in to picdrop in a Cloud Browser.** Open picdrop in your Cotlet Cloud Browser and sign in with your own business account at www.picdrop.com/login. 2. **Add the Cotlet address.** Enter https://cotlet.dev/mcp/v1 as the MCP server or connector URL in your agent. 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. picdrop shares the address `https://cotlet.dev/mcp/v1` with every other app you enable, so one connector covers them all. Turned picdrop on after connecting? Refresh the connector and the 103 tools appear.

Cotlet watches picdrop and updates the server when its screens change. New picdrop features become available to the agent within your account permissions. Your picdrop account and role determine which records and screens the agent can use. If picdrop signs you out, open your Cloud Browser with one click from the Cotlet console and sign in again. ## Approvals, undo and mistakes 1. **Choose the client gallery.** Name the gallery and the saved set or color flag the client selected. 2. **Read the feedback beside its image.** Review recent gallery activity and compare the selected image versions. 3. **Prepare the retouching handoff.** Export the selected filenames and keep the requested changes beside the files they concern. 4. **Prepare the gallery email.** Show the recipient, gallery link and exact message before delivering the approved review gallery. | Action | Undo | |---|---| | Pin galleries as favorites | Review the operation and its current record before choosing a corrective action. | Calls marked Asks first wait for your approval by default.

Questions about the picdrop tools go to contact@cotlet.dev. ## picdrop MCP server: questions ### How do I get access? Create a Cotlet account, open picdrop and sign in at www.picdrop.com/login. Enable it for agents, then add Cotlet to your chosen AI assistant. ### How do I connect picdrop to ChatGPT or Claude? Sign up at cotlet.dev, log in to picdrop 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 picdrop account through Cotlet, in their phone apps too. ### What can ChatGPT do in picdrop? With Cotlet, ChatGPT, Claude and other AI agents handle jobs like these in picdrop: prepare the retouching handoff; compare the revised edit; send the approved review gallery. 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 picdrop? picdrop documents an official MCP connection for apps such as Claude to account content and features, including gallery structures, filenames, metadata, download links and images. Its public named tools, write coverage and plan entitlement were not established in this review. The privacy policy is evidence of official MCP connectivity; it does not provide a public action-by-action comparison. ### Can ChatGPT review client selections in picdrop? Name the gallery and the client set or color flag. Your agent filters those files, reviews recent gallery activity and exports the selected filenames for your retouching handoff. ### Can ChatGPT compare image versions in picdrop? Select the image and the versions to compare. Your agent opens the documented image-version comparison in your account; File Versions must be enabled on a supported plan. ### Can ChatGPT send a gallery to a client in picdrop? Provide the gallery, recipient and message. Your agent prepares the gallery email and shows its exact destination and contents before sending it. ### Can ChatGPT restore a deleted gallery in picdrop? Identify a complete gallery still listed in your bin. Your agent checks that no replacement gallery with the same name exists and prepares restoration of its files, flags, comments and sets for your approval. ### Can ChatGPT review incoming files in picdrop Inbox? Choose the Inbox and submission. Your agent reads the files and submitted project details, then prepares acceptance into the destination gallery you choose. Rejecting a submission permanently deletes its uploaded files and asks first. ### Does picdrop have an API? picdrop says an account API cannot currently be set up. Its FAQ provides no general-purpose public account API. ### Is the MCP server different from the REST API? Only in how it is called. Both carry the same 103 tools, inputs, answers, API key and price. Agents use MCP; scripts and HTTP steps use REST. ### Is Cotlet affiliated with picdrop? No. Cotlet is independent and not affiliated with picdrop. --- Give your AI agents your signed-in browser. **Product:** [Integrations](https://cotlet.dev/integrations.md) · [How it works](https://cotlet.dev/how-it-works.md) · [Pricing](https://cotlet.dev/pricing.md) · [Security](https://cotlet.dev/security.md) **Resources:** [Blog](https://cotlet.dev/blog.md) · [API docs](https://cotlet.dev/docs.md) · [Help center](https://cotlet.dev/help.md) · [Changelog](https://cotlet.dev/changelog.md) · [GitHub](https://github.com/cotletdev/cotlet) **Solutions:** [For developers](https://cotlet.dev/for-developers.md) · [For automation agencies](https://cotlet.dev/for-agencies.md) **Company:** [About](https://cotlet.dev/about.md) · [AI info: company facts](https://cotlet.dev/ai-info.md) · [Contact](https://cotlet.dev/contact.md) **Legal:** [Terms of service](https://cotlet.dev/terms) · [Privacy policy](https://cotlet.dev/privacy) · [Refund policy](https://cotlet.dev/refunds) · [Acceptable use](https://cotlet.dev/acceptable-use) · [Cookie policy](https://cotlet.dev/cookies) · [DPA](https://cotlet.dev/dpa) · [Subprocessors](https://cotlet.dev/subprocessors) **Elsewhere:** [Status page](https://status.cotlet.dev) · [Cotlet on GitHub](https://github.com/cotletdev) · [Cotlet on X](https://x.com/cotletdev) · [Cotlet on LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/cotletdev) · [Cotlet on Product Hunt](https://www.producthunt.com/products/cotlet) · [Cotlet on Crunchbase](https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/cotlet) · [Cotlet on SaaSHub](https://www.saashub.com/cotlet) Cotlet.dev is built by Bart Krawczyk and Jake Slugocki, the founders of Take Group sp. z o.o., ul.
