Connect DawBets to Claude

What the connector actually is

The DawBets connector hands Claude a set of DawBets tools it can call in the middle of an ordinary conversation. Ask "which of my books has the best price on this player prop" and Claude reads DawBets pre-game odds, fair prices and expected-value numbers to answer, without you leaving the chat. MCP — Model Context Protocol — is just the standard Claude uses to talk to outside services; the connector is DawBets on the other end of it.

It researches and explains. It cannot place a bet, sign in to a sportsbook, move money, or change a setting. The single thing it can write is a bet you already placed, logged to your DawBets bet history when you ask and confirm — What Claude can see and do covers that in full.

What you need first

• ●A DawBets Plus or Pro plan. A free trial account counts, because a trial is treated as Pro. Current prices are on the pricing page.
• ●Any Claude plan. Free, Pro, Max, Team and Enterprise all work. Claude Free allows only one custom connector in total, so adding DawBets there means giving up whatever custom connector you already have.
• ●A browser. The setup happens in Claude’s own settings and on a DawBets web page.

Add it to Claude

1. 1

   Copy your connector URL

   Open Claude Connector in DawBets and press the copy button beside the URL. It is your DawBets address with /api/mcp on the end.

2. 2

   Open Claude’s connector settings

   In Claude, go to Settings, then Connectors.

3. 3

   Add a custom connector

   Choose Add custom connector and paste the URL you copied.

4. 4

   Sign in and approve

   Claude sends you to DawBets to sign in. Approve the request and you land back in Claude with DawBets listed as a connector.

The two things you approve

That approval screen asks two separate questions, and the connector will not answer anything until both are on file:

• ●A 21+ age confirmation — you confirm you are of legal sports-betting age in your jurisdiction. One tick, once.
• ●A data-access grant — the list of what the connector may read as you (odds and expected-value analytics, your tracked bets and settled record, your saved preferences, your plan and trial status — never your bankroll or payment details), plus the one thing it may write.

Both are versioned. If the age wording changes, or what the connector can reach is widened, everyone is asked again.

Check that it worked

Start a new chat and ask something only DawBets can answer — "what are the biggest +EV edges on my books right now". Claude names the DawBets tool it calls before it answers.

Claude also lists four one-click DawBets starters in the menu next to its message box. Those, the questions that work best, and how saving your sportsbooks in Settings narrows the personalised answers are all in What to ask the Claude connector.

If it will not connect

An OAuth or "authorization failed" error during setup usually means a stale authorization request left by a half-finished attempt. Remove the connector in Claude’s settings and add it again from scratch, starting the retry from Claude’s connector settings rather than refreshing the page.

Anything that goes wrong once you are connected — rate-limit messages, daily call limits, a tool reporting it is not enabled yet — is covered in Claude connector limits and errors.
