BenchCanvas MCP lets you point an AI agent at a project so it can see the same context you organized on the canvas: screenshots, frames, URLs, comments, and sticky notes. Capture and annotate first, then connect your tool when you are ready to design or build. MCP is read-only. Your AI can inspect what you share. It cannot edit the canvas.

​
How it works

1

Capture and organize

Capture references, inspiration, and competitors. Add comments and sticky notes, and share with your team for feedback if you want.
2

Open Connect AI

In the project top bar, next to Share, open Connect AI. BenchCanvas generates a share link for the project and shows setup instructions for your tool.
3

Connect your AI tool

Follow the steps for Claude Code, Cursor, or another MCP-compatible client. Paste the project share link so the AI reads the right canvas.
4

Ask while you build

In your AI tool, ask about the project. For example: remind me of the notes I left about this competitor, or design a component like this reference I saved.

Supported tools

​
What the AI can see

Once connected and pointed at a project share link, the AI can read:
  • Screens and screenshots
  • Frames and flow structure
  • Screen URLs and titles
  • Comments
  • Sticky notes
It only sees projects you share through a public share link. See Share links.
If a screenshot includes personal data, hide sensitive info before you share the project with an AI tool or a teammate.
