For IT and engineering

Elaichi vs Zapier MCP vs Composio for Acquire

All three can connect Acquire to an AI assistant, and all three have admin controls. They differ in where access lives and how you pay.

Elaichi compared with Zapier MCP and Composio for Acquire, by what to check
What to check Elaichi Zapier MCP Composio
Where the AI connects One address for the whole organization. https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp A server per member, created at sign-in. An MCP endpoint per team, or an SDK.
Control over Acquire tools Allow or restrict single Acquire tools, per role or user. App and action restrictions on the account. Role permissions, down to the action.
Record of calls One audit entry per Acquire call. A History tab of tool calls. A log of every tool call.
Single sign-on SAML or OIDC, plus SCIM, on Gold. SAML on Enterprise. SAML and OIDC on Enterprise.
Price Free for one person; $15 per user per month on Gold. 2 tasks per successful call. Billed per tool call.

Longer take: Zapier MCP alternative and when you don't need an MCP gateway.

Acquire tools for your AI agents

148 tools are ready to call through Elaichi's MCP endpoint the moment you connect Acquire, governed by the same roles, restrictions, and audit log as everything else in Elaichi.

Questions, answered

How do I connect Acquire to Claude?

First connect Acquire in Elaichi by pasting in an Acquire API key, which you copy from your Acquire settings. There is no OAuth application to register and no client ID or secret to generate. Then open Claude, go to Customize, then Connectors, then Add, and paste https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp as the endpoint. Sign in to Elaichi when Claude asks, and your Acquire cases, messages, notes, and contacts are available in the chat.

Does Acquire work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?

Yes. Once Acquire is connected in Elaichi, the same endpoint, https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, works in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Microsoft Copilot, any other MCP client, and the Elaichi Agent. You connect Acquire once and every client you use picks it up.

What can an AI agent actually do with my Acquire data?

With Acquire connected, an agent can list and read your cases and the messages on them, open a new case, close one, snooze it, or invite another agent onto it. It can add internal notes, send a customer a message by email or SMS, and search or create contacts. Because Acquire exposes a lot of actions, short concrete asks such as "show me open cases for Northwind" work better than long multi-part sentences.

Does connecting Acquire give the AI access to every case and contact?

No. Every request to Acquire runs as the person who signed in, so the agent sees only the cases, messages, and contacts that person can already see in Acquire itself. Elaichi can narrow that further with restrictions per action, but it can never widen it beyond what Acquire grants the person.

Can my team share one Acquire connection?

Yes. One person connects Acquire with the API key and shares the connection with a team in Elaichi, and nobody else ever handles the key. Each teammate still signs in to Elaichi as themselves, so every case closed or message sent through Acquire is recorded in the audit log under their own name.

Can I stop an agent from deleting or changing things in Acquire?

Yes. Restrictions in Elaichi work per action, so you can allow reading Acquire cases and contacts while restricting deleting messages or notes, or restricting sending SMS entirely. A restricted action still appears in Elaichi's tool search, flagged as restricted, but Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Microsoft Copilot, or any other client cannot run it, whatever the prompt says.

What happens to an Acquire connection when someone leaves?

When you offboard a person in Elaichi, their access to Acquire through every connected client ends at once. If they had been using a shared Acquire connection, it keeps working for everyone else on the team. If you ever want Acquire gone completely, disconnecting it once in Elaichi removes it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Microsoft Copilot, and every other client at the same time.

Does the Acquire MCP connector work with Gemini, Codex, Claude Code or other MCP clients?

Yes. Acquire is reached over the same MCP endpoint every client uses, so anything that speaks MCP can call it — Gemini, Codex, Claude Code, Windsurf, Cline, Zed and OpenCode among them — alongside Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Microsoft Copilot, and the Elaichi Agent. The tools on offer and the access behind them are identical whichever client asks. Only the setup screen differs.

Is Elaichi an alternative to Zapier MCP for Acquire?

Yes. Both let Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor use Acquire. Zapier MCP fits a team that already automates in Zapier, since each person signs in and acts as themselves in that account. Elaichi fits when IT wants one address for the whole company, per-tool rules by role, and a record of every Acquire call.

How is Elaichi different from Composio for Acquire?

Composio gives AI agents tools and sign-in handling across 1,000+ apps, for developers building agents or people using an assistant, billed per tool call. Elaichi gives a company's own people governed access to Acquire: one address, restrictions per role or user, and $15 per user per month. Both have role permissions and a log of every call.
