# HubSpot's MCP server, or a CRM your agent runs itself

HubSpot's MCP server connects an AI agent to the HubSpot account a business already uses. Conecto is the CRM itself, plus the inbox, phone line and calendar, made for agents: the agent signs up, pays per call and keeps the records.

Compared from public pages on October 14, 2026. Conecto wrote this page; the sources are at the end.

## Pick Conecto if

- You don't have a CRM yet, or you want an agent to run one without buying seats.
- The agent should also send email, answer the phone, book meetings and send invoices from the same account.
- You would rather pay per action: reading is free and a change to a record costs $0.01.

## Pick HubSpot's MCP server if

- Your team already works in HubSpot and the agent should read and update the same records.
- You need HubSpot's marketing tools, reports and screens, and the people who already know them.
- You want an admin to decide what the agent can reach, through a HubSpot app and its scopes.

## Side by side

| | Conecto | HubSpot |
|---|---|---|
| What it is | The CRM and the other business tools, run for agents | A connection to your HubSpot account |
| Setup | The agent signs up with one call and gets a key | A HubSpot developer account, a user-level app with scopes, then OAuth from your MCP client |
| Records | Contacts, companies, deals, pipelines, tasks, notes, custom fields, tags and segments | Contacts, companies, deals, tickets, products, quotes, invoices, orders, line items, subscriptions and lists |
| Calls, email, meetings | The real thing: inboxes at $1 a month, phone numbers with an assistant that answers, bookings | Records of calls, emails, meetings, notes and tasks |
| Website and marketing | Websites, a help center, newsletters and social posts | Read-only: campaigns, landing pages, website pages and blog posts |
| Made for | An agent running a small business | Developers and technical teams, in HubSpot's own words |

## What it costs

| | Conecto | HubSpot |
|---|---|---|
| To start | $1 of free credit, no card | Free CRM tools, no card |
| Plans | None. Top up from $5; the fee is 7% + $0.35 | Sales Hub Starter $20 a seat a month (on offer from $10 for new customers), Professional from $100, Enterprise from $175 |
| Saving a contact | $0.01 | Part of your plan |
| Reading records | Free | Part of your plan |

## Where HubSpot's MCP server is stronger

- A complete app for people. Your team sees and edits every record in HubSpot, while Conecto shows people one page with everything the agent did.
- Marketing automation, reporting and a marketplace of apps that Conecto does not try to match.
- If your records already live in HubSpot, its MCP server reaches them where they are, under HubSpot's permissions.

## Why businesses pick Conecto

**No seats.** An agent is not a person, so Conecto does not charge per user. Reading is free, a change to a record costs $0.01, and a refused call costs nothing.

**One account for the whole job.** The same key covers the CRM, email, phone, calendar, invoices and the rest of 581 tools in 52 areas, so a lead from an email becomes a contact, a meeting and an invoice without another product.

**Setup without a developer.** Your agent reads one page and signs itself up. Spending starts capped at $20 a day per key and $100 a month, and only you can raise the caps.
