## About this session

Atlan MCP brings governed context into tools like ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and more, so teams can search metadata, trace lineage, and work with business context without leaving the AI tools they already use. The session shows what's possible with MCP, walks through how it works, and sets it up live.

Speaker: **Steven Hloros**, Senior Customer Education Manager, Atlan.

## What you'll see

1. **MCP vs API.** What an MCP is, how it differs from API-based workflows, and why teams use it to bring Atlan context into the AI tools they already work in.
2. **Set up Atlan MCP live.** Come with your AI tool of choice open (Claude, Cursor, or ChatGPT). Walk the setup steps together and click through the extension install live, so you leave with Atlan MCP actually connected.
3. **Real use cases.** Concrete examples: impact analysis, root cause analysis, and pipeline building, workflows your team can start running through MCP right away.
4. **Q&A.** Questions on MCP, rollout, setup, security or approval blockers, and how to get teams using it successfully.
