Stream Deck Becomes the Action Layer for AI, Starting with NVIDIA G-Assist
Corsair Gaming, Inc. (Nasdaq: CRSR) today announced that its Elgato brand is bringing MCP support to Stream Deck, opening the award-winning platform to AI assistants for the first time. Starting with NVIDIA G-Assist, AI tools and agentic workflows can now execute actions on a user's system. This takes AI out of the chat box and gives it a presence in the real world.

"Paired with our strategy of embedding the Stream Deck platform across a growing range of peripherals, Corsair offers one of the most valuable action layers for AI on the market today."
Most AI integrations today are screen-based. Chat windows, text fields, copilots that suggest things for you in a UI you're already in. While this has its place, agents are trapped in software. Stream Deck is different. It's a physical action layer connected to hundreds of integrations across your entire system: lights, audio, scenes, shortcuts, hardware, apps, automations. Model Context Protocol (MCP) is often described as a USB layer for AI, allowing any system to expose its full set of capabilities simply by plugging in. When an AI agent connects to Stream Deck through MCP, it inherits all of that.
