# Connect TravelDay to your AI

> TravelDay runs a remote MCP server at `https://www.travelday.world/api/mcp`. Add that URL to ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, VS Code or any MCP client, sign in to TravelDay, and approve what it may do. Importing your travel from email is free on every plan. Asking questions about your travel needs TravelDay Plus.

Last updated: 2026-10-07

- **Server URL:** `https://www.travelday.world/api/mcp`
- **Transport:** Streamable HTTP.
- **Sign-in:** OAuth 2.1 with PKCE. There is no API key. Clients register automatically (CIMD or dynamic registration).
- **Protocol versions:** 2025-03-26, 2025-06-18, 2025-11-25, 2026-07-28.
- **Price:** import tools are free. Questions, edits and analysis need [Plus](https://www.travelday.world/pricing).
- **Disconnect:** Settings, Connected apps, in TravelDay. One click ends the connection.
- **MCP Registry name:** `world.travelday/travelday`

## What it does

Your assistant gets the same tools as the assistant inside TravelDay. It answers from your real travel record instead of guessing.

- Import flights, hotels, rentals, trains, buses and ferries from your own email.
- Count days per country and check visa windows like Schengen 90/180.
- List visits, flights and trips, and summarise your travel by year.
- Add or correct a trip or visit, with your approval.
- Read safety scores and advisories for a destination.

## What is free and what needs Plus

On the free plan your AI can **import**. With Plus it can **import and answer questions** about your trips, days and visas.

Free on every account: `get_import_playbook`, `propose_email_bookings_for_review`, `propose_add_email_bookings_to_history`, `summarize_travel`, `get_travel_story`. That is enough to import your travel from email, hear what was added and read back your travel story.

Everything else over MCP needs TravelDay Plus: questions about your days, visas and taxes, edits, flights, trips and safety.

Your imported history stays free to view and export in TravelDay, whatever plan you are on.

       }
     }
   }
   ```

OpenClaw: see the [OpenClaw MCP guide](https://docs.openclaw.ai/cli/mcp).

## Import your travel from email

Your assistant reads your mail through its own Gmail or Outlook connection. TravelDay never touches your mailbox. The assistant sends TravelDay the travel facts it found, nothing else.

1. Connect your mail to the same assistant: Gmail or Outlook in ChatGPT, Gmail or Microsoft 365 in Claude.
2. Connect TravelDay as above, with **Write** approved.
3. Say: "Import my travel from email into TravelDay." In Claude and Claude Code you can also pick the **Import my travel from email** prompt.
4. The assistant reads TravelDay's import rules first, searches by airline, hotel and travel-agency senders, and sends bookings in batches.
5. Approve when asked. Confident past flights and stays go into your history; anything uncertain waits in your review list in TravelDay.
6. Check the result in TravelDay. Each import is labelled with the assistant that sent it and can be undone in one tap.

## What your assistant sends, and what it never sends

Unknown fields are rejected by the server, so a body or attachment cannot be sent even by mistake.

Sent:

- Booking type and status (confirmed, changed, cancelled, declined)
- Provider, sender domain and booking reference
- The email's date and subject line
- Traveller names as printed
- Flights: airport codes, flight number, local dates and times
- Stays: check-in and check-out dates, city, country and property name
- Trains, buses and ferries: stations, cities and local dates

Never sent:

- Email bodies, HTML, snippets or attachments
- Links, prices, card or payment details
- Passport, loyalty or phone numbers, or addresses
- Any email that is not a travel booking

## You stay in control

- TravelDay asks you directly before writing to your history, in clients that support it. Other clients show their own confirmation first.
- Bookings that are uncertain, cancelled, or for someone else go to your review list. Nothing there counts until you approve it.
- Every import is labelled with the assistant that sent it, and one tap undoes the whole batch.
- Resending is safe. Bookings are matched on reference and dates, including against TravelDay's own inbox scan.
- Limits: up to 25 bookings per call and 40 calls a day.
- Email content is treated as data, never as instructions.

## Permissions you can grant

You choose what to grant on TravelDay's approval screen. Each permission is separate.

- **Read** (`travel:read`): travel history, day counts, trips, saved places and safety data.
- **Write** (`travel:write`): add or correct trips and visits. Needed for imports.
- **Delete** (`travel:delete`): remove trips and visits. Always asks first.
- **Evidence** (`travel:evidence`): search travel email TravelDay already holds and read evidence you select.
- **Journal** (`travel:journal`): your private travel stories. Never included in the others.
- No permission opens your document vault, contacts anyone, or triggers SOS.

## Email import skill

For the most consistent imports, install the [travelday-email-import skill](https://www.travelday.world/docs/mcp/travelday-email-import.zip). It holds the full search and extraction rules.

**Claude:** Customize, then Skills, then upload the zip. Code execution must be on. **Claude Code and Cursor:** unzip into `~/.claude/skills/`. **ChatGPT:** the rules arrive through the TravelDay tools, no upload needed.

No skill? It still works. The import tools hand your assistant the same rules on first use.

## If it will not connect

- Paste the full URL, `https://www.travelday.world/api/mcp`, with **www** and `/api/mcp`. Not `/mcp` or `/docs/mcp`.
- Asked for an API key? Pick OAuth instead. TravelDay has no keys.
- After signing in you should see TravelDay's approval screen. If you land on the map instead, reopen the connection from your assistant.
- "Added" can mean saved but not signed in. Start a new chat and ask "Use TravelDay to tell me how many countries I have visited."
- "Plus is required" means the tool is not an import tool. Imports work on a free account.
- Corporate proxies can block the sign-in. Try a personal network.
- Still stuck? Email [support@travelday.world](mailto:support@travelday.world) with the assistant's name and the error.

## Prompt for an AI agent

Paste this into any assistant that can add MCP servers, or hand it to an agent told to connect TravelDay.

```
Connect TravelDay as a remote MCP server.
Server URL: https://www.travelday.world/api/mcp
Transport: Streamable HTTP. Auth: OAuth 2.1 (browser sign-in, no API key).
If you cannot add servers yourself, give me the exact steps for this app from https://www.travelday.world/docs/mcp.
Once connected, call get_import_playbook before any import and follow its rules.
Then search my email for travel bookings and send them to TravelDay. Send only booking facts, never email bodies or attachments, and show me a summary before you send.
```

## Questions

### What is the TravelDay MCP server?

It is a remote Model Context Protocol server at `https://www.travelday.world/api/mcp`. It lets AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor and VS Code read and update your TravelDay travel record after you sign in and approve.

### Is connecting my AI to TravelDay free?

Importing your travel from email through your assistant is free on every plan. Asking it questions about your travel, editing your history and the other tools need TravelDay Plus.

### Do I need an API key?

No. TravelDay uses OAuth sign-in. Your assistant opens a TravelDay sign-in page and you approve the connection there.

### Can TravelDay read my email through my assistant?

No. Your assistant reads your mail with its own connection and sends TravelDay only booking facts: dates, airports, booking references, providers and traveller names. Email bodies, attachments and payment details are refused by the server.

### Can I undo an import?

Yes. Every import is labelled with the assistant that made it, and one tap undoes the whole batch. Uncertain bookings wait in your review list until you approve them.

### How do I disconnect an assistant?

In TravelDay, open Settings, then Connected apps, and end the connection. It stops working immediately.

# TravelDay FAQ

Last updated: 2026-10-07

See the full comparison on the [pricing page](https://www.travelday.world/pricing#compare).

### If I stop paying, do I lose my travel history?

No. Your travel history is free forever, on every plan, and you can export it at any time.

### Can I cancel Plus?

Yes, at any time. You keep Plus until the end of the period you paid for. Billing runs through the App Store, Google Play or Stripe, depending on where you subscribed, and you cancel in the same place.

## Visas and day counting

### How does TravelDay count days in a country?

A day counts in a country if you were there for any part of it, using the local date at that place. A travel day can count in two countries, as it does under the Schengen rules.

Days come from your trips, flights, photos, calendar and email imports. Each one keeps its source, and you can correct any of them.

We count the days you have recorded. Missing, estimated or wrongly imported dates change the result, and we cannot see which passport you used. Your passport stamps and the official rules decide. Leave a margin and confirm with the authorities before you rely on a date.

### How does the Schengen 90/180 rule work in TravelDay?

You may spend up to 90 days in any rolling 180-day period across the Schengen Area. TravelDay counts every day you were in any Schengen country in the 180 days before a date and compares it with 90.

Days used is free: see how many days you have used in Schengen or any country. Plus tells you how many are left, checks future trips, and gives you a heads-up as a limit nears.

### Which visa and tax rules does TravelDay track?

The public catalogue lists 119 rules across tax residency, visas, residency and citizenship, each linked to its official source. Browse them in the [day-count atlas](https://www.travelday.world/atlas/day-counts).

Some legal tests depend on more than days, such as family ties or a permit's wording. Those rule pages say so instead of showing a number.

### Is a TravelDay day count legal or tax advice?

No. A count from your recorded travel. Not legal or tax advice. We count the days you have recorded. Missing, estimated or wrongly imported dates change the result, and we cannot see which passport you used. Tax tests also weigh ties, exceptions and treaties we do not assess. Your stamps, the official rules and a qualified adviser decide.

## Safety scores and data

### How are TravelDay's safety scores made?

Each country gets a score from 0 to 100, where 100 is safest. Today it is driven mostly by the U.S. State Department travel advisory level. Recent events, disaster and humanitarian data and a researched assessment can move it, but those feeds are thin for many countries, so read the score as a summary of official advice, not an independent measurement.

Active conflict is handled separately. Where a government advisory is at level 3 or 4, the band we show is capped, so a calm score never hides a war. Neighbourhood scores appear only where we have grounded local sources.

### What are the limits of the safety scores?

An estimate, not a guarantee. Check official advisories too. They can be out of date or miss what is happening on the ground, and they describe an area, not your personal risk. Use them as one input alongside official travel advice and local knowledge.

Coverage varies by country, and neighbourhood detail exists only in some cities.

Missing data is shown as missing, never as safe. TravelDay is for information only. Check official advice before you travel. Read the [Terms](https://www.travelday.world/terms) for the full disclaimer.

### Where does TravelDay's data come from?

Public and open sources, each shown with the alert it backs: the U.S. Department of State for advisories, GDACS, USGS, UN OCHA ReliefWeb and the WHO for disasters and outbreaks, MET Norway and NASA POWER for weather and climate, OpenStreetMap, Overture Maps, Wikidata and GeoNames for places, the Passport Index dataset for visa rules, and the World Bank and U.S. BEA for relative costs.

The full list, with what each source is used for and its caveats, is on [Data sources](https://www.travelday.world/docs/data-sources).

## SOS and emergencies

### Does TravelDay's SOS call emergency services?

No. SOS alerts your trusted contacts. It does not call emergency services. It emails your trusted contacts right away. It does not call anyone, send texts, or contact the police or an ambulance.

SOS needs a data connection, battery and at least one trusted contact. Delivery is not guaranteed and your contacts may not see it in time. In danger, call the local emergency number first. TravelDay is not an emergency service and does not replace 911 or 112. Checked local emergency numbers are shown free for 29 countries so far.

### What happens if I miss a safety check-in?

Automated check-ins are a Plus feature. If you miss a check-in, your contacts are emailed. No one else is. Check-ins depend on our servers, your connection and your contacts reading their email. They are a backup, not a monitoring service. Nobody at TravelDay watches them.

## Privacy and your data

### Who can see my travel history?

Only you, unless you share it. Your history appears publicly only if you turn on a public profile or create a share link, and you can turn either off.

TravelDay has no advertising and does not build profiles of you across other websites. See the [Privacy Policy](https://www.travelday.world/privacy).

### Can I export my data?

Yes, free on every plan, any time. In Settings, under Your data, choose Export to download your travel history as spreadsheets or JSON. Vault documents stay encrypted and download separately.

### Can I delete my account?

Yes, from Settings at any time. Deleting your account permanently removes your trips, documents and contacts from our servers.

## Using TravelDay with AI assistants

### Can I use TravelDay with ChatGPT or Claude?

Yes. Add `https://www.travelday.world/api/mcp` as a custom connector in ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, VS Code or any MCP client, then sign in to TravelDay. The [setup guide](https://www.travelday.world/docs/mcp) has steps for each.

### What is the TravelDay MCP server?

It is a remote Model Context Protocol server at `https://www.travelday.world/api/mcp`. It lets AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor and VS Code read and update your TravelDay travel record after you sign in and approve.

### Is connecting my AI to TravelDay free?

Importing your travel from email through your assistant is free on every plan. Asking it questions about your travel, editing your history and the other tools need TravelDay Plus.

### Do I need an API key?

No. TravelDay uses OAuth sign-in. Your assistant opens a TravelDay sign-in page and you approve the connection there.

### Can TravelDay read my email through my assistant?

No. Your assistant reads your mail with its own connection and sends TravelDay only booking facts: dates, airports, booking references, providers and traveller names. Email bodies, attachments and payment details are refused by the server.

### Can I undo an import?

Yes. Every import is labelled with the assistant that made it, and one tap undoes the whole batch. Uncertain bookings wait in your review list until you approve them.

### How do I disconnect an assistant?

In TravelDay, open Settings, then Connected apps, and end the connection. It stops working immediately.
