Faxify adds AI assistant faxing with hosted MCP server

Faxify launched what it calls the first hosted commercial fax MCP server, letting AI assistants like Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor send, track and receive real faxes from a single account. The service is free on every plan and aims to bring fax workflows into AI-driven work while keeping human approval in the loop.

Why it matters: - Fax remains required in healthcare, law and government for prior authorizations, filings and submissions. - Faxify MCP connects those workflows to AI assistants already handling more day-to-day work. - The setup keeps a person in the approval step before a fax is sent, which matters because a fax cannot be unsent.

What happened: - Faxify launched Faxify MCP, a hosted commercial fax Model Context Protocol server, on Nov. 9, 2025. - The service is now positioned as a fax client for MCP-compatible assistants including Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Continue.dev, Aider and Cline. - Faxify says the MCP server is free on every plan and can be set up in about 10 minutes. - The hosted endpoint is the MCP server, and users install the official npm client @faxify/mcp-client.

The details: - Users can connect through OAuth 2.1, including Dynamic Client Registration, or JWT. - Assistants can send faxes, draft documents, generate previews and wait for human approval before transmission. - With a dedicated fax number, assistants can also list and read inbound faxes. - Faxify says the MCP surface includes 18 tools across four categories. - Faxes tools cover send, list and read inbound, check status, resend and delete. - Draft tools cover create, update, preview and send a saved draft. - Account tools cover profile, fax number and usage. - Subscription tools cover plan, limits and offerings. - Native OAuth support covers Claude Desktop, Claude on the web and ChatGPT Pro, Plus, Business, Enterprise and Education plans through Developer Mode. - Faxify MCP is another way into the same Faxify account, not a separate product. - Faxify already offers web, iOS, Android and Apple silicon Mac apps, and MCP adds AI assistants to that set. - One login covers the web, mobile, desktop and assistant workflows. - Faxify routes faxes through SignalWire's HIPAA-eligible carrier infrastructure with BAA coverage and stores documents on Google Cloud under Google's BAA. - Faxify says the company itself is not a HIPAA-covered entity. - Access to the MCP server is authenticated with OAuth 2.1 or JWT. - A dedicated fax number, needed to receive faxes, is included on annual plans and on Professional and Elite monthly plans. - Free, Basic and Standard monthly plans are send-only. - Faxify offers a free plan that requires no credit card to start.

Between the lines: - Faxify is framing MCP as infrastructure, not a premium add-on. - The company is also signaling that the value is in typed fax workflows, not just protocol support. - The human-review gate suggests Faxify is targeting regulated and approval-heavy work rather than fully autonomous faxing.

What's next: - Faxify expects the draft-preview-approve pattern to show up first in healthcare inbox automation. - The same workflow is positioned for legal filings, real-estate document handoffs and recruitment paperwork. - Faxify is directing users to its MCP product page and the hosted MCP server to get started.

The bottom line: - Faxify is trying to make fax a native action inside AI assistants, while keeping compliance, review and account continuity intact.
