  "notes": "Clari (Groove's parent) launched an MCP server in 2026 described as covering \"the full Clari + Salesloft platform,\" but no source explicitly confirmed Groove-specific actions/data are in scope, hence mcp_status: unknown rather than official. A \"groove-mcp\" GitHub repo exists but belongs to the unrelated Groove HQ support-ticketing product - do not cite it for this tool. Clari/Salesloft merged Dec 2025, creating direct product overlap between Groove and Salesloft worth flagging to anyone evaluating both. [api_gate 2026-08-25] Reclassified unknown -> enterprise-only from the vendor's own page (https://www.clari.com/pricing/): now a Clari product and Clari publishes no prices or tiers; the pricing page is a get-a-quote form and neither it nor the Groove product page mentions API access. 2026-09-02: re-checked, mcp_status stays unknown. The official MCP registry's only groove hit is io.usefulapi/groove-hq (remote groove-hq.usefulapi.io/mcp), a wrapper for the GrooveHQ support inbox, not Clari Groove - do not cite it. https://www.clari.com/products/groove/ has no MCP mention, and the Clari/Salesloft MCP press release describes live Salesloft and Clari pipeline, call and deal data without naming Groove. Nothing Groove-specific exists, but the parent's server may well expose Groove activity data, which is why this stays unknown rather than none-found.",
