This is the official ClickSend MCP Server developed by the ClickSend team. For security reasons do not use unofficial versions of ClickSend MCP.

ClickSend MCP is designed to extend ClickSend’s messaging capabilities into modern AI ecosystems and platforms - allowing developers to easily send SMS via ClickSend without needing to write custom code.

This accelerates adoption, enables new AI-driven use cases, and positions ClickSend as a future-ready messaging platform in the age of intelligent automation.
