Kelpom Now Works Inside ChatGPT, Claude & Cursor
TL;DR: You can now check an IMEI just by asking your AI assistant. It’s free, needs no account, and works in ChatGPT, Claude and Cursor. Here’s how to set it up.
Keep reading to see what this changes.
Kelpom, Right Where You Already Are
Until now, checking a device meant coming to Kelpom.fr. Useful — but it’s one more tab, one more copy-paste, one more context switch.
So we flipped it around. Kelpom now comes to you, inside the AI assistant you’re already using. Paste any 15-digit IMEI into ChatGPT, Claude or Cursor and ask what it is — the phone or tablet model comes back in the conversation, without you ever leaving it.
No account. No API key. No login. Just ask.
How It Works
AI assistants can now connect to external tools through an open standard called MCP (the Model Context Protocol). We’ve made Kelpom’s IMEI identification available as one of those tools — so any assistant that speaks MCP can call it.
- ChatGPT — Kelpom is published in the ChatGPT app directory. Search for “IMEI Checker by Kelpom”, enable it, done.
- Claude & Cursor — add Kelpom as a custom connector with a single URL.
The full step-by-step for each one lives on our setup page:
Then it’s as natural as typing:
What phone is this IMEI: 359637820005821?
…and getting the brand, the marketing name (e.g. iPhone 13 Pro), and the model number right back — mid-conversation, while you’re researching a device, comparing an offer or drafting a listing.
Free, and Private by Design
The tool is free and asks nothing about you. And when it identifies a device, it never keeps the full IMEI — only the first 8 digits (the TAC), which identify the model, not the individual phone. The details are in our AI-assistant privacy note.
It’s sized for everyday, conversational use — checking a phone here and there while you chat. If you need to identify IMEIs at scale or inside your own app, that’s exactly what our Kelpom IMEI API on RapidAPI is built for.
This Is Just the Start
Bringing Kelpom to the tools you already use is something we’ll keep pushing — the browser extension, and now your AI assistant. There’s more to come.
As always, we’re listening: if you try it, tell us what works and what you’d like to see next. Your feedback shapes what we build.
