Link for technology partners

Put submittal documents inside your product

Link speaks MCP, the open standard AI agents use to call tools. Connect your software or your agent to Link and give your users checked manufacturer documents, every source cited, without building a library of your own.

  • Open standard, nothing new to learn
  • Your users sign in with their own account
  • 420+ manufacturersin the library today
  • 19,000+ documentschecked by a person
  • 4 toolssearch, list, build, collect

Who connects

Built for the software your users already work in

Construction software

Project management, document control and submittal tools. Let your users pull a product's documents into the submittal they are building, right where they build it.

AI agents and copilots

If your assistant already calls tools, Link is four more. It answers a product question with real files and a manifest instead of a guess.

Estimating and procurement

When a product goes on a bid or a purchase order, its product data and safety data sheet can travel with it from the first line item.

The tools

Four tools your agent can call

The same four tools contractors use in Claude and ChatGPT. Looking things up costs nothing and answers at once, while a build works on its own and hands back a job id to collect.

  • search_products

    Find a product by free text, manufacturer or model, with the document kinds on file for each match.

  • list_documents

    Everything held for one product: each file, its review standing, its issue date and where it was found.

  • build_submittal_documents

    Assemble exactly the kinds your user asked for into one set of submittal documents. Needs the manufacturer and the product.

  • get_submittal_documents

    Collect the finished job: a manifest of every document and its source, plus a download link that expires.

How partnering works

From first email to your users, in four steps

Every integration starts with a conversation, because the right setup depends on who your users are and how they work. We share the connection details once we know what you are building.

Tell us what you are building
  1. 1

    Tell us what you are building

    Your product, your users, and where submittal documents fit in their day.

  2. 2

    Get connected

    We set up a partner account and send the connection details for your MCP client.

  3. 3

    Build and test

    Call the tools against the live library with a test account before anything reaches a user.

  4. 4

    Launch

    Your users sign in with their own Link account, and their documents arrive inside your product.

Security

Safe to put in front of your users

Link holds no project data. Your integration receives document metadata and links, never the contents of a user's project, and every download link expires. Each user signs in with their own account, so access follows the person, not a shared key.

Link privacy
  • No project data
  • Per user sign in
  • Expiring links
  • Source cited

Questions

Questions from technology partners

What is MCP?

The Model Context Protocol is an open standard for connecting AI applications to outside tools and data. Claude and ChatGPT both use it, and so do a growing number of agent frameworks. If your product can act as an MCP client, it can call Link.

Does Link work outside Claude and ChatGPT?

That is what this program is for. Link is a standard MCP server with sign in, so a client that supports both can connect. We test each partner's client with them before launch.

How is usage counted?

The same way as everywhere else Link runs. Lookups are free. Building submittal documents draws on the user's Link allowance, and nothing runs past its cap. For partner volume, we agree terms with you directly.

Do you see our users' project data?

No. Link receives the manufacturer and product your integration names, and returns documents from the library. Nothing about the project around that request is stored.

Who do we talk to?

Email partners@sub-pro-ai.com with your company, your product and what you want Link to do for your users. You will hear back from a person, usually our founder.
