# Shutterstock MCP: Use Shutterstock in Slack and Email

Source: https://maito.app/integrations/shutterstock

Connect the Shutterstock MCP server to Maito in one click, and your whole team can use it from Slack or email: “Find five stock photos of a small team working in a bright office.”

Shutterstock is a library of stock photos, videos and illustrations. Connect the Shutterstock MCP server to Maito once, and everyone on your team can use Shutterstock from Slack, by email, or from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Codex, Grok or Muse. Nobody else has to sign in.

Maito uses Shutterstock to do the work and replies where you asked.

## How to connect Shutterstock

Open Connections in your workspace and choose Connect next to Shutterstock. It needs no separate sign-in: choose Connect and it's ready. Name the account and choose Workspace under who can use it. That's the only time anyone signs in: your whole team, shared chats and Loops can use Shutterstock from then on. Or skip ahead and ask for the work: Maito sends you a link if Shutterstock isn't connected yet.

## Questions

### What is the Shutterstock MCP server URL?

Shutterstock publishes it at https://www.shutterstock.com/cciq/mcp, and it needs no sign-in.

### Can I use the Shutterstock MCP server from Slack?

Yes. Connect it to Maito once, then mention Maito in any Slack channel or send it a direct message. The same connection works by email and from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Codex, Grok or Muse.

### Does everyone on my team have to connect Shutterstock?

No. One person connects it once and chooses Workspace. Then everyone in the workspace, shared chats and Loops can use Shutterstock, without signing in themselves. Choose Only me instead to keep it to your own chats.

### Do I have to connect Shutterstock before I ask?

No. If a request needs Shutterstock and it isn't connected yet, your agent sends you a link. Connect it, and the work picks up where it stopped.

### Can I limit what Maito does in Shutterstock?

Yes. After you connect, turn off any Shutterstock tools you don't want Maito to use, such as the ones that change data. Tools Shutterstock adds later stay off until you turn them on.
