Customer intelligence — without changing how you work

AI is already part of your team’s daily workflow but it doesn’t know your customers. Gainsight MCP connects Staircase directly to the AI tools your teams already use, so real customer context is available the moment they need it. No copying notes between systems, no pasting background info into prompts, and no switching tabs to validate answers. Whether prepping for a meeting, drafting a follow-up, creating a handoff summary, or analyzing trends across accounts—everything happens in one place, powered by real Staircase intelligence.

Just faster, more reliable answers your team can trust.


Create shared customer context

Align CS, Sales, RevOps, and Leadership around the same live intelligence — not fragmented notes or outdated reports.

Reduce decision friction

Eliminate the back-and-forth required to validate insights, confirm context, or double-check data.

Scale what your best CSMs already do

Surface the depth of insight typically locked in Staircase and make it usable directly within the AI tools your team already works in.

Turn intelligence into leverage

Move faster, prepare better, and respond with precision — without adding new tools or complexity.

Built for teams moving at AI speed

AI is reshaping how teams work. The question isn’t whether you use it — it’s whether it understands your business.

Gainsight MCP ensures your AI outputs are accurate and meaningful, so decisions are grounded in what is actually happening with your customers. It brings live customer intelligence into the AI tools your teams already use, while workflows, execution, and customer management continue to live in your CSP.
