Elaichi vs Zapier MCP vs Composio for Chronosphere
All three can connect Chronosphere to an AI assistant, and all three have admin controls. They differ in where access lives and how you pay.
| 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 Chronosphere tools | Allow or restrict single Chronosphere 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 Chronosphere 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.
Chronosphere tools for your AI agents
2 tools are ready to call through Elaichi's MCP endpoint the moment you connect Chronosphere, governed by the same roles, restrictions, and audit log as everything else in Elaichi.
No tools match your search.
Questions, answered
How do I connect Chronosphere to Claude?
First, open Elaichi, choose Chronosphere, and paste in a Chronosphere API key when prompted; there is no OAuth application to register and no client ID or secret to generate. Then, in 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 Chronosphere teams are available in your conversations.
Does Chronosphere work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?
Yes. Once Chronosphere 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 Chronosphere once and every client picks it up.
What can an AI agent actually do with my Chronosphere data?
With this connector, an AI agent can list all of the teams in your Chronosphere organization and look up a single Chronosphere team by its ID to see its details. That is enough to answer questions like who owns a set of monitors, which teams exist, or what a team ID in an alert actually refers to. It cannot change teams, edit dashboards, or touch alerting rules through this connector.
Does connecting Chronosphere give the AI access to everything in my Chronosphere organization?
No. The connector can only read Chronosphere teams, and it can only reach what the Chronosphere API key used to connect is allowed to see. Each person still signs in to Elaichi as themselves, and Elaichi can narrow what a person or team can do with Chronosphere, but it can never widen access beyond what the key already has.
Can I stop an agent from deleting or changing things in Chronosphere?
This Chronosphere connector only lists teams and looks up a team by ID, so there is nothing it can delete or change to begin with. Beyond that, Elaichi restrictions work per action, and any action you restrict 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 a Chronosphere connection when someone leaves?
When you offboard a person in Elaichi, their access to Chronosphere through the endpoint ends at once. If they were using a shared Chronosphere connection, it keeps working for everyone else on the team. If you want to remove Chronosphere entirely, disconnecting it once in Elaichi removes it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Microsoft Copilot, and every other client at the same time.
Does the Chronosphere MCP connector work with Gemini, Codex, Claude Code or other MCP clients?
Yes. Chronosphere 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 Chronosphere?
Yes. Both let Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor use Chronosphere. 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 Chronosphere call.
How is Elaichi different from Composio for Chronosphere?
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 Chronosphere: one address, restrictions per role or user, and $15 per user per month. Both have role permissions and a log of every call.
Put Chronosphere in front of your team
14 days of Black, no credit card. Connect it once and pick what each team can call.
