If you draft in an AI tool like Claude, ChatGPT, or Gemini, you can create Deal Rooms and deal-specific content straight from that conversation. Everything you create lands in Spekit, scoped to the right deal and ready to send. This guide covers creating a room, creating content inside one, adding content you already have, and what the connector cannot do yet.
ℹ️ Set up the connector first. See Spekit MCP Overview & Setup. Write actions always pause for your approval. Your AI tool shows you what it is about to create, and nothing is saved to Spekit until you confirm it.
💡 Pro Tip: The conncetor does more than Deal Rooms. It can also create and update Speks, create Topics, and search your knowledge base. See How to create content with Spekit MCP and How to manage content with Spekit MCP.
1. Create a Deal Room
A Deal Room sits under a company, so make sure the company exists first.
- If the company does not exist yet, ask your AI tool to create it. Example: "Create a company called Acme."
- Ask your AI tool to create a Deal Room under that company.
- Review, then confirm. The Deal Room is created in Spekit.
Example prompt: Create a Deal Room under Acme.
⚠️ Two things to know before you send anything to a buyer.
| Limitation | What it means |
|---|---|
| The connector cannot turn on external sharing for a Deal Room | A room created through MCP is not yet viewable by a buyer. Turn on external access in Spekit after the room is created. See How to Create a Deal Room. |
| Deal Rooms are create-only through the connector | Once created, a room cannot be renamed or edited through MCP. Make those changes in the Spekit Hub (Web App). |
💡 Pro Tip: Create the room through MCP, then open it in Spekit to set your buyer's branding and turn on sharing. That is the fastest path from idea to a room you can send.
2. Create content inside a Deal Room
Once a Deal Room exists, your AI tool can draft new content directly inside it, scoped to that specific deal and company.
- Ask your AI tool to create the content you want, naming the Deal Room it belongs in.
- Review each piece it drafts.
- Confirm. Each piece is created inside the Deal Room, ready for you to review and send.
Example prompt: In the Acme Deal Room, create a mutual action plan and a one-pager for their VP of IT.
💡 Pro Tip: Name the audience for each piece. "A one-pager for their VP of IT" gets you a sharper draft than "a one-pager."
3. Build a full content set in one request
You do not have to create content one piece at a time. Ask for the whole set, and your AI tool reads the approved content it needs and drafts each piece in turn.
- Describe the full set you want, naming the Deal Room.
- Review the whole set.
- Confirm.
Example prompt: In the Acme Deal Room, build a launch set: a value-prop overview, an objection-handling one-pager, and an FAQ. Use our approved messaging in Spekit.
4. Add content that already exists
There are two different jobs here, and they work differently.
| What you want | How to do it |
|---|---|
| Something similar to an existing asset | Ask your AI tool to draft a new version based on it. Example: "Use our approved security one-pager as a starting point." This works through MCP today. |
| The exact existing asset itself | Open the Sidekick (Chrome Extension), find the content by search or by browsing the Topic, and add it to the Deal Room from there. See How to Add Content to a Deal Room. |
ℹ️ Your AI tool can search your Spekit knowledge base and read existing content. What it cannot do today is place that exact Spek or file into a Deal Room for you. Use the Sidekick (Chrome Extension) for that step.
5. Turn content into slides
You can go from an AI draft to a branded deck without building slides by hand.
- Ask your AI tool to draft the content, scoped to the Deal Room, the same way as any other piece. An executive summary or a mutual action plan both work well.
- Your AI tool creates it in Spekit as a Spek. That is a structured, editable piece of content, not a static file.
- Open that Spek in Spekit and use Present Mode to turn it into a branded deck.
The split is worth understanding. MCP creates the Spek. Present Mode turns the Spek into slides. You are not asking your AI tool to build a PowerPoint file. You are asking it to draft the content, and letting Spekit handle the slide formatting and branding on top.
💡 Pro Tip: This is why the Spek matters more than the deck. The content stays live and editable after you present it. If something changes on the deal, update the Spek once instead of hunting down a static slide file.
6. What the connector cannot do
These limits apply across everything you create through MCP.
| Limit | What to do instead |
|---|---|
| There is no delete tool | Nothing created through MCP can be removed through MCP. Delete it by hand in the Spekit Hub (Web App). |
| Deal Rooms and companies are create-only | Rename or edit them in the Spekit Hub (Web App). |
| Topics cannot be edited or deleted | Create them through MCP if you like, but make changes in the Spekit Hub (Web App). |
| External sharing cannot be turned on for a Deal Room | Turn on external access in Spekit before you share the link. |
| Existing content cannot be placed into a Deal Room | Add it from the Sidekick (Chrome Extension). See Section 4. |
7. Best practices
| Do this | Why it helps |
|---|---|
| Create the company first | Deal Rooms sit under a company. Creating the company first avoids a failed request. |
| Read every draft before you confirm | Write actions always pause for your approval. That pause is your review step. |
| Point MCP at your approved content | Asking it to use your Spekit messaging keeps drafts on brand and on message. |
| Name the deal and the audience | Specific prompts produce content you can send, not content you have to rewrite. |
| Finish in Spekit | Sharing, branding, renaming, and adding existing assets all happen in the Spekit Hub (Web App). |
| Use MCP for the blank page | The biggest time saving is the first draft, not the final polish. |
