MCP server · Read-only · Paid plans

Ask Claude or ChatGPT about your invoices.

Connect your AI assistant to Tailride's hosted MCP server and ask in plain language: what still needs attention, what you spent with a supplier last quarter, which payments are missing a receipt. The assistant reads your workspace — it can't change anything.

What is the Tailride MCP server?

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is the open standard AI assistants use to connect to other software. Tailride runs a hosted MCP server at https://tailride.so/api/mcp. Add it to Claude, ChatGPT, Claude Code, Cursor or Codex, sign in with your Tailride account, and the assistant gets 16 read-only tools over your invoices, suppliers, chart of accounts, spend, subscriptions, sources and bank statements — limited to your workspace.

How it works

Two minutes, no code.

01Copy the server URL

In Settings → Webhooks, under AI assistants (MCP), copy https://tailride.so/api/mcp.

02Add it to your assistant

Paste it as a custom connector in Claude or ChatGPT, or as an MCP server in Claude Code, Cursor or Codex.

03Sign in and approve

Your assistant opens Tailride's sign-in. Approve read-only access to your workspace.

04Ask away

Ask about invoices, suppliers, spend or missing receipts. Disconnect any assistant in Settings whenever you like.

What your assistant can read

Invoices in full

Search by text, vendor, date, amount, tag, source or payment status, then open any invoice with its line items, coding, export status and a download link that expires after 15 minutes.

What needs attention

Failed exports with their errors, fields Tailride wasn't sure about, lines that still need coding, and mailboxes or sources that need reconnecting.

Spend and subscriptions

Spend by month, vendor or tag — per currency, never added across currencies — and recurring vendors with their next expected charge.

Suppliers and coding

Supplier records with their default and most-used accounts, plus your chart of accounts and cost-tracking dimensions.

Sources and integrations

Connected mailboxes, folders and accounting tools, with their reconnect status and the latest scans.

Bank matches

Uploaded bank statements, how much of each is matched, and the payments still missing a receipt.

What people ask

  • “Which invoices from last month haven't reached Xero yet, and why?”
  • “How much did we spend on software subscriptions this quarter, per vendor?”
  • “Which card payments on the September statement still have no receipt?”
  • “Which account do we usually use for this supplier?”

Frequently asked questions

Which assistants work with it?

Clients that support remote MCP servers with sign-in: Claude (custom connectors on claude.ai and the desktop app), ChatGPT, Claude Code, Cursor and Codex. Scripts and headless clients can use a Tailride API key instead of signing in.

Can the assistant change anything in Tailride?

No. Every tool is read-only: the assistant can search and read, but it can't edit, delete, export or send anything.

What can it see?

Only the workspace you signed in to: invoices, suppliers, chart of accounts, spend, subscriptions, sources, integrations and bank statements. File links it receives expire after 15 minutes.

Who can connect an assistant?

The owner of a business workspace on a paid plan. Access is checked on every request, so it ends immediately if the plan changes or you disconnect the assistant.

How do I disconnect an assistant?

In Settings → Webhooks, under AI assistants (MCP), each connected assistant is listed with a Disconnect button. It loses access at once and has to sign in again to come back.

Does Tailride send my data to the AI provider?

Only when you use it: the results of the tools your assistant calls go to that assistant, under its provider's terms. Tailride doesn't send anything on its own.
