WTF Is An MCP And Why Should You Care?

A New Standard For How AI Gets Real Work Done

You may have heard a lot of talk about “MCPs” lately. And no, it’s not just another acronym to add to your growing list of AI buzzwords. It stands for Model Context Protocol, and while the name sounds deeply technical, it’s not as complicated once you break down what it actually does at its core.

Let’s zoom out for a second: there’s been a shift happening in how AI is being used. We’re moving beyond generating text and into action. Agents - AI systems that can complete real tasks using external tools. They’re starting to power everything from scheduling and research to customer support and campaign management. 

But here’s the problem: most tools today weren’t built to be used by AI. There’s no shared language between agents and the apps they need to call. Every integration is bespoke, every workflow a patchwork of custom code. That makes scaling agent-powered systems slow, expensive, and fragmented. 

That’s what Model Context Protocol is here to change. 

MCP is a standard way for agents to discover and use external tools. It doesn’t do anything on its own. It’s not a platform or a plugin. It’s a protocol.But that’s exactly what makes it powerful. It defines how tools describe themselves and how agents can interact with them; so any tool that follows the MCP standard can be used by any AI agent that understands it.

It’s like what HTTP did for the web. Before it, websites couldn’t talk to browsers in a unified way. After it, the internet became interoperable. MCP is that layer, but for the AI ecosystem. 

For marketers, it means your business systems, your CMS, your inventory database, your support platform, could become instantly usable by AI agents without needing custom integrations. It means when someone asks an AI assistant “What’s the return policy for this store?” or “Is this item in stock near me?” the answer doesn’t come from scraped data or outdated docs. The AI could call your tools directly and get it right. 

Visibility in this new landscape won’t just depend on content or SEO. It will depend on whether your systems are usable by the AI itself. We’re early, but this is the infrastructure shift that will separate the brands AI can work with from the ones it can’t. 

It’s not a mainstream protocol yet, but it’s the kind of standard that makes everything else move faster.

Omni-Reference: Midjourney’s Most Useful Update Yet

Midjourney just introduced a powerful feature for marketers and designers aiming for brand consistency in AI-generated visuals: Omni-Reference. This tool allows you to anchor specific visual elements—like a product, logo, or character—into your AI-generated images, ensuring they remain consistent across various outputs.

Instead of hoping the AI captures the essence of your uploaded image, you can now direct it to incorporate exact elements. Whether it's maintaining a character's facial features or preserving a product's design, Omni-Reference ensures your visuals align with your brand identity.

You also have control over how strictly the AI adheres to your reference. Want a creative interpretation? Set a lower influence. Need precise replication? Increase the influence accordingly.

Great for teams utilizing Midjourney to prototype visuals, conduct brand experiments, or generate campaign assets that require consistency.

Why We Like It

✅ Anchors specific visual elements for consistency
✅ Compatible with both Discord and web interface
✅ Adjustable influence over the reference image
✅ Streamlines the creation of cohesive visual assets
✅ Ideal for campaign mockups, storyboards, and ad variants

Top 10 MCP Use Cases

Turn PDFs into Conversational Workflows with Custom GPTs

Most teams are sitting on content that’s rich but underutilised, like pricing breakdowns, brand guides, product specs, onboarding manuals, or case study packs

Normally, searching through those means hunting down links, opening PDFs, and scanning 20 pages for one answer. This hack flips that.

By uploading your PDFs into a Custom GPT, you can turn that doc into an interactive assistant that compares pricing, finds product details, summarises testimonials, and helps you generate content on the fly. It’s like giving your doc a brain and putting it to work for marketing, sales, or ops.

Step 1: Start Building
Hit “Create” in the top-right corner of ChatGPT (Pro account required) to start building your Custom GPT.

Step 2: Go to “Configure”
After naming your GPT, click into the “Configure” tab. This is where you set its behavior, tone, and files it can access.

Step 3: Upload Your PDF
In the “Files” section, click “Upload files” and drop in the doc(s) you want the GPT to reference.

These could be:

• A pricing guide

• A product comparison matrix

• Your brand tone of voice doc

• An internal playbook or onboarding guide

• Customer case studies or testimonials

The GPT will be able to read and search these in real time as part of the conversation.

Step 4: Add Instructions + Context
In the “Instructions” field, tell your GPT who it’s for, what its job is, and how it should use the uploaded content.

Example: “You’re a sales assistant that uses the attached pricing guide and case studies to help tailor recommendations to different industries, respond to objections, and support proposal writing.”

Include just enough detail so it knows how to act and what content matters.

Step 5 (BONUS TIP): Add Conversation Starters for High-Leverage Tasks
Use the “Conversation Starters” section to pre-load prompts that handle the tasks you usually have to do multiple times a week.

Examples:

“Compare all plans in the PDF and recommend the best fit for a healthcare startup with a $1K/month budget.”
“Summarise the onboarding process and turn it into a 3-step bullet list for a pitch deck.”
“Find 3 testimonials in the doc that highlight customer service—and turn them into LinkedIn post copy.”

These tasks normally take 15 tabs and 30 minutes. With this setup? 10 seconds and one click.
