How do I extract a DocSend deck with MCP?

Add the DeckExtract MCP server (https://deckextract.com/mcp) to your AI tool, sign in when prompted, then ask it to extract a DocSend link — it returns a downloadable PDF or PowerPoint.

Does the MCP server support Papermark?

Yes. The same deckextract tool extracts Papermark decks to PDF or PPTX, including view-only and password-protected documents.

Do I need an API key for the MCP server?

No. When you connect the MCP server your AI client opens a sign-in page; create an account or log in once and the connection is authorized. Any MCP-compatible client works — Claude, Claude Code, ChatGPT, Codex, Mistral and Cursor — over the standard Streamable HTTP transport.

DocSend & Papermark MCP Server

Extract decks with MCP — convert DocSend and Papermark links to PDF or PowerPoint without leaving your AI assistant. Add the hosted Model Context Protocol server, sign in once, and tools like Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and others turn a sharing link into a downloadable file on your behalf.

Set it up in your AI

Pick your client — same URL everywhere. You'll be prompted to sign in (or create an account) the first time you connect.

In Claude Desktop or claude.ai, open Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector, paste the URL, then sign in when prompted.

https://deckextract.com/mcp

On older Claude Desktop builds without remote connectors, use the "Other clients" bridge below.

The `deckextract` tool

Extract a deck from a DocSend or Papermark sharing link to PDF or PPTX (a ZIP for data rooms). Pass analyze:true (Pro) to also return structured deck data.

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`url`	string	Yes	The DocSend or Papermark sharing link
`format`	"pdf" \| "pptx"	No	Output format (defaults to pdf)
`email`	string	No	Email for email-gated decks (auto-generated if omitted)
`password`	string	No	Passcode for passcode-protected decks
`analyze`	boolean	No	Pro only — also return a structured analysis of the deck
`sessionId`	string	No	Resume token from a password / email-confirmation reply — echo it on the retry
`otp`	string	No	The 6-digit verification code the deck emailed (send with otpSessionId)
`otpSessionId`	string	No	Resume token from a requires_email_otp reply (valid ~5 minutes)

Example result

{
  "downloadUrl": "https://deckextract.com/dl/ab12cd….pdf",
  "resourceUri": "deckextract://deck/ab12cd….pdf",
  "format": "pdf",
  "sizeBytes": 542318,
  "expiresAt": "2026-06-11T16:00:00.000Z",
  "sourceUrl": "https://docsend.com/view/xzjawgkxgbysq8i5",
  "analysis": { "company": { "name": "Acme" }, "round": { "stage": "seed" } }
}

The extracted file is also exposed as an MCP resource: read resourceUri (deckextract://deck/…) via resources/read, or open the downloadUrl link (valid ~1 hour). The analysis object is present only when analyze: true succeeds (Pro).

Try it

Once the server is connected, just ask in plain language:

“Use deckextract to download https://docsend.com/view/xzjawgkxgbysq8i5 as a PowerPoint.”

Prefer raw HTTP?

If you'd rather call DeckExtract directly instead of through an AI tool, the same extraction is available as a plain REST endpoint — see the API documentation.
