Can Claude or ChatGPT check my O-1 or EB-1 case status?

Yes, if Extraordinary is handling your case. Connect the server, sign in with your portal account, and ask. The assistant reads the same view of your case that you see in the portal: the current stage, next steps, documents and updates from your team.

Can an AI assistant fill out my O-1 evaluation?

Not yet. The connector works with existing cases. To find out whether you qualify for an O-1, O-1B or EB-1, start the free evaluation at extraordinary.com/evaluation. Once you are a client, your assistant can follow the case from there.

The Model Context Protocol is an open standard that lets AI assistants connect to outside services with the user’s permission. Claude, ChatGPT and Claude Code all support it. A service publishes a set of tools; Extraordinary’s tools answer questions about your case.

Is my case information safe?

You sign in to the Extraordinary portal through OAuth, so the assistant never sees your password and only holds a short-lived token for your own account. It can read what you can read in the portal, and nothing else. Remove the connection at any time from your assistant’s settings. Extraordinary logs which tools were called and when, not your conversation. The security page has the details.

My company works with Extraordinary. Can our team use it?

Yes. Ask us to switch on AI access for your company. Your team then finds the server URL, the setup steps and a list of connected apps under AI apps in the portal. Team members see the company’s cases; the company’s named contacts can also send a to-do for review and fill in company details on a case.

Does it cost anything?

No. The connector is part of working with Extraordinary. You need a Claude or ChatGPT plan that allows custom connectors.

Can I use it with Cursor or another MCP client?

Yes. Any client that supports remote MCP servers with OAuth works, including Cursor and mcp-remote. Use the same server URL and sign in when the client asks.

Can it draft my petition or support letters?

No. The connector does not draft documents, give legal advice or predict outcomes. Your case team does that work, and you can reach them through the portal.

MCP connector

Your case, inside Claude and ChatGPT.Extraordinary’s MCP connector.

Who it is for.

The connector works with an existing case. What you can ask depends on who you are in the portal.

Applicants: Anyone with an Extraordinary case, signed in with the same Google account or email you use for the portal and the app. You see your own case and nothing else.
“Where does my case stand right now?”
“What do I still owe my case team?”
“Which documents are missing?”
“What was the last update?”
Companies: Teams at companies that work with Extraordinary, once we have switched on AI access for the company. You see your company’s cases, their stage and open to-dos, and can send a to-do back to us for review.
“Which of our cases are stalled?”
“What is due across our team this week?”
“How many cases are waiting on us?”

It can

Tell you the stage your case is in and what it means
List your open to-dos with their due dates
Say which documents are on file and which are still missing
Read back the latest notes from your case team
Report status across all of a company’s cases, for company users
Where your account allows it, send one of your to-dos to the team for review or attach a file you give it, after checking with you

It won’t

Draft petitions, support letters or forms
Give legal advice or predict the outcome of a case
See anyone else’s case, or anything you can’t see in the portal
Mark a to-do done, or change your case without confirming with you first
Keep your conversation. The chat stays with Claude or ChatGPT

You sign in through OAuth, so the assistant never sees your password and holds a short-lived token for your own account. Remove the connection at any time from your assistant’s settings; company users can also disconnect apps in the portal. Extraordinary logs which tools were called and when, never the contents of your conversation. More on the security page.

Support

Setup trouble, an answer that looks wrong, or a company that wants AI access switched on: write to [email protected]. Clients can also message their case team in the portal.

Frequently askedquestions

Yes. The server is at https://mcp.extraordinary.com/mcp and works with Claude on the web, desktop and mobile, ChatGPT on the web, Claude Code, and any other MCP client that supports OAuth sign-in. You sign in with the account you use for the Extraordinary portal.
