No tools match your search.
Questions, answered
How do I connect BlueTally to Claude?
Connect BlueTally in Elaichi first, which asks for a BlueTally API key from your BlueTally 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. Sign in to Elaichi and BlueTally is available in Claude.
Does BlueTally work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?
Yes. Once BlueTally 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 BlueTally once and every client picks it up.
What can an AI agent actually do with my BlueTally data?
It can look up BlueTally assets and accessories, see who has them, check them in and out, and create or update records as things change. It can also open and update audits, tidy categories, and read the activity history of any asset. Short, concrete asks such as "check laptop 0412 in" work better than long sentences.
Does connecting BlueTally give the AI my whole inventory?
No. Every request to BlueTally runs as the person who signed in, so the AI sees only the assets, accessories, and audits that person can already see in BlueTally. Elaichi can narrow that further by team or by action, and it can never widen it.
Can I stop an agent from deleting or changing things in BlueTally?
Yes. Restrictions in Elaichi work per action, so you can allow lookups and checkouts in BlueTally while restricting deletes or edits. A restricted action still appears in Elaichi's tool search, flagged as restricted, but Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or Microsoft Copilot cannot run it, whatever the prompt says.
What happens to a BlueTally connection when someone leaves?
Offboarding the person in Elaichi ends their access to BlueTally through every client at once. A BlueTally connection they shared keeps working for everyone else on the team. If you want BlueTally gone entirely, disconnect it once in Elaichi and it disappears from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Microsoft Copilot, and every other client.
Does the BlueTally MCP connector work with Gemini, Codex, Claude Code or other MCP clients?
Yes. BlueTally 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 BlueTally?
Yes. Both let Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor use BlueTally. 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 BlueTally call.
How is Elaichi different from Composio for BlueTally?
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 BlueTally: one address, restrictions per role or user, and $15 per user per month. Both have role permissions and a log of every call.
Put BlueTally in front of your team
