Can I use Next Tile in ChatGPT or Claude?
Yes. Add Next Tile to Claude or ChatGPT as a connector with the address https://nexttile.app/mcp. Then ask for your best move in NYT Crossplay or Scrabble GO: the assistant asks Next Tile, which checks every legal play and ranks them by chance to win.
What the assistant gets back
Ask for your best move on the example board from the Crossplay page, with R, O, H, T, N, L and M on your rack. The assistant gets Next Tile's top plays:
| Play | Points | Chance to win |
|---|---|---|
| RUTH, across from C5 | 26 | 62% |
| MOUTH, across from B5 | 29 | 57% |
| MONTH, across from H6 | 24 | 56% |
MOUTH scores 3 more, but RUTH keeps better tiles for your next turn, so it wins more often. The assistant passes on that pick and the reason instead of guessing one of its own.
Add it to Claude
- Open Customize, then Connectors, on claude.ai or in the Claude app.
- Choose Add custom connector. Name it Next Tile and paste https://nexttile.app/mcp.
- To use your Next Tile account, paste https://nexttile.app/mcp/account instead. Claude asks you to sign in, and your plan comes with you.
- On the Free plan, Claude allows one custom connector.
Add it to ChatGPT
- Turn on Developer mode in Settings, under Apps & Connectors, then Advanced settings. ChatGPT offers it on paid plans.
- Choose Create, name it Next Tile, paste https://nexttile.app/mcp and pick OAuth.
- In a chat, add Next Tile from the + menu, then ask for your best move. Sign in when ChatGPT asks, and your plan comes with you.
What it can do
- Read a screenshot. In ChatGPT, attach a Crossplay or Scrabble GO screenshot and ask for your best move.
- Work from a board you describe. Tell it the words on the board, where they are, and your tiles.
- Answer like the site. The word, where it goes, its points, its chance to win and why.
- Use your plan. Signed in, it uses your Next Tile account: Pro has no daily limit.
- Keep no screenshots. A screenshot is read and thrown away. Analyses are logged anonymously, as on the site.

No. Sign in only to use your own plan. Signing in is by an emailed link, with no password.
Is Next Tile in the ChatGPT or Claude app directory?
Not yet. Until it is, add it with the address https://nexttile.app/mcp.
Why not just ask the assistant for a move?
A chatbot guesses at words and scores. Next Tile checks every legal play against the word list and plays the game ahead.

NYT Crossplay and Scrabble GO, plus standard Scrabble boards played with the North American word list.
