Sinch’s adoption of the Model Context Protocol (MCP) positions its Customer Communications Cloud as a leader in AI-driven communications. MCP standardizes how AI agents execute tasks, enabling seamless integration of communication actions like marketing campaigns, notifications, and customer service interactions. “AI is transforming how businesses communicate, and Sinch has the proven infrastructure to make it work at scale,” said Robert Gerstmann, Chief Evangelist and Co-Founder at Sinch. The platform supports 900 billion annual interactions across 175,000 businesses in 60+ countries.

Sinch’s AI capabilities have delivered significant results: a global insurer autonomously handles 80% of customer requests in over 125 languages, while a leading retailer achieved 3x higher engagement using conversational AI with Rich Communication Services (RCS). According to Sinch’s State of Customer Communications Report, 95% of businesses are adopting or planning AI for customer communications, with IDC projecting the AI platforms market to reach $153.0 billion by 2028.

MCP Implementation Details

The Sinch MCP server, now in developer preview with Claude, equips AI agents with the knowledge to select communication channels, format messages for regional compliance, and ensure delivery. It integrates with platforms like OpenAI Agents SDK, AgenticFlow, Microsoft Azure AI Foundry, and Copilot Studio. “With MCP, we’re codifying decades of communications expertise into protocols that AI agents can understand, teaching them the specific requirements, compliance rules, and best practices needed for each use case and region,” Gerstmann added. This ensures reliable, compliant, and fraud-resistant communications.

Scalable and Compliant Infrastructure

Operating in over 60 countries, Sinch leverages local compliance expertise and routing intelligence to ensure resilient communications. Its MCP implementation exposes these capabilities to AI agents, enabling scalable, high-quality interactions across global markets. The platform’s enterprise-grade infrastructure supports businesses in navigating complex regulatory environments while maintaining operational efficiency.
