Nepternship is a networking platform for warm introductions and referrals at the companies you want to work for. Members share who they can introduce others to: 10,000+ connections at 3,000+ companies, including Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan, Google, Meta and McKinsey. The Nepternship connector lets you do the same things from inside your AI assistant: ask who can introduce you to someone at a company, read a member’s profile, request the introduction, and keep up with your chats, without opening the app.
What you can ask
- “I need an internship at Goldman Sachs but I don’t know anyone there.”
- “Who can refer me for a product manager role at Google?”
- “Request an introduction to that JPMorgan analyst and add a note that I’m a junior at NYU.”
- “Check my Nepternship introductions. Did anyone reply?”
- “Accept the request waiting on me.”
No account yet? Start anyway
You can search the network and read profiles with no account at all. The first time you ask for an introduction, the assistant asks a few questions right in the conversation: what you are looking for, your name, school and graduation year, and who you can introduce other members to. Then it shows a Connect button. On Nepternship’s own page you continue with Google, Apple or your email, and add your mobile number so we can text you when someone accepts. You come straight back to the chat, your account is created from your answers, and your request goes out. Already a member? Just sign in on that page. You never type a code or a password into the chat.

Other assistants
Any assistant that supports remote MCP servers with OAuth can connect to https://mcp.nepternship.com/mcp. Assistants without OAuth can use https://www.nepternship.com/mcp, where the assistant signs you up or in inside the chat with a code from your email. Meta Muse uses a personal token, which you can create on your AI assistants page.

What the assistant can do
- Search and browse the network: find members who can introduce you to someone at a company, in a role, in an industry or in a city.
- Read member profiles: who a member can introduce you to, what they are looking for, their university and industries.
- Request introductions: send an introduction request with an optional note of up to 200 characters.
- Manage your introductions: see active introductions, requests waiting on you and requests you sent, and accept or decline requests.
- Chat: read your introduction chats and send messages in them.
- Check your balance: how many introduction requests you have left and your invite link.
- Help you join: ask the join questions in the conversation, then connect your account on Nepternship’s page with one tap.
Anything that sends something to another member (an introduction request, a reply, a message, or declining a request) is confirmed with you in the assistant before it happens. The same free limits apply as in the app, and an assistant cannot do anything your account could not do in the app.
What it cannot do
- It cannot see members’ contact details. Names show as first name and last initial until both people accept an introduction.
- It cannot pay for anything or change your subscription. In Claude, if you ask about Nepternship Premium, it gives you a link to checkout on our website, where you decide. ChatGPT shows no checkout links.
- It cannot read your conversations with the assistant beyond what each action sends us, and it cannot access your files.
Privacy and your data
When you use the connector, Nepternship receives only what each action needs: your search text, the member or introduction you pick, the answers you give to the join questions, and the notes and messages you choose to send. Your other messages to the assistant are not sent to us. Introduction requests and messages are stored in your Nepternship account exactly as if you had used the app. We do not use what you send through an assistant for advertising. You sign in on Nepternship’s own page (OAuth): the assistant gets a token for your Nepternship account and never sees your password, email code or text code. Your email and mobile number are given to us on that page, not to the assistant. See the AI assistants section of our Privacy Policy for who receives what and how long we keep it.
Our full Privacy Policy and Terms and Conditions apply.
Disconnecting
You can disconnect at any time, either in your assistant’s connector settings or on your AI assistants page, which lists every assistant connected to your account with a Disconnect button. Disconnecting stops access immediately. To delete your data entirely, delete your account in the app settings or email us.
