Awardco introduced the first Model Context Protocol connector in employee recognition earlier this year; full MCP capability is available now for multiple LLMs
SALT LAKE CITY, Nov. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Awardco, the employee recognition, rewards, and engagement platform, today announced that Awardco's MCP is available in conjunction with Claude, Microsoft Copilot, Gemini, and Glean. The announcement was made at RCGNZ Summit 2026 in Park City, Utah.
Awardco was the first employee recognition platform to announce a Model Context Protocol connector, releasing it to beta customers in early 2026. Today's release follows months of robust beta testing to ensure maximum capability and security.
Powered by Awardco Intelligence™, the MCP connects Awardco to the AI assistant an organization already uses—enabling HR leaders and employees to work with their own recognition and engagement data in plain language rather than through dashboards. Through the MCP, users can do things such as:
- Draft and send recognitions, always with human input, review, and final approval
- Look up recognitions, people, reports, and analytics, providing vital workforce signals
- Draft a recognition program, saved as a draft for human review and confirmation
Built with security at the forefront, the access available to the MCP is bounded by design, meaning the connector acts as the person using it and does not act on its own assumptions. It carries existing Awardco permissions and grants no new ones. Every action requires human confirmation, ensuring accuracy and security. Awardco's MCP does not read any survey responses, it does not act independently, and customer data is never used to train third-party AI models.
"Our customers have spent years building recognition data that says something real about their people, and most of it has remained locked in dashboards," said Steve Sonnenberg, Co-Founder and CEO of Awardco. "This brings that insight to where our customers already work, and it drafts while they decide, and crucially the final call stays with the admin every time."
Awardco also introduced enhancements across recognition, engagement, connection, rewards, and teased a new incentives product called Awardco Incentivize™ at RCGNZ Summit 2026, all leading towards a record-breaking 2027.
