Faire MCP connector

The Faire connector brings your wholesale orders, products, inventory, prices and retailer reviews into Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and any MCP client, so your team can ask about and update Faire from the tools they already use.

  • How it connects. Connects with an API key. The credential goes into a vault nobody reads back.

  • One address. https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, the same for every user.

  • Their own access. An agent never gets more than the person it acts for.

How to connect

How to connect Faire to Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor

1

In Elaichi

Connect Faire once

  1. Open Connections, choose Add connection, and pick Faire.

  2. Optionally set Share with to give a team access, then press Connect.

  3. Paste a Faire API key. One person generates a token in Faire and pastes it once. Everyone else works through Share with, and never sees it.

The credential is vaulted. Nobody reads it back, not even the AI.

Use cases

What teams do with Faire through Elaichi

Every one of these runs inside the access the person already has, and lands in the same audit log.

  • Wholesale sales

    Check on a retailer's order before the call

    Pull up a Faire order by its number, see what the retailer bought and where it stands, and walk into the conversation knowing what they are waiting on.

  • Fulfillment

    Work through today's orders in one pass

    List the Faire orders that need attention, mark a batch as processing, print the packing slip for each and record the shipment once the carton leaves the warehouse.

  • Inventory

    Fix stock levels before retailers overorder

    Look up on-hand quantities by SKU, then update a whole list of variants at once when a production run lands or a line sells through, and mark items unavailable when they are gone.

  • Merchandising

    Add and tidy products in the catalog

    Create a new Faire product, upload its images, pick the right product type and update the description or options without opening the brand portal.

  • Pricing

    Roll out wholesale price changes by SKU

    Change prices across dozens of Faire variants in one go when costs move or a season ends, instead of editing each listing by hand.

  • Customer service

    Handle cancellations and read retailer reviews

    Cancel a Faire order when a retailer asks, and skim the latest product reviews to spot a packaging or quality issue before it spreads.

Try asking

  • “Which Faire orders shipped late this week?”
  • “Summarize inventory gaps across Faire product variants.”
  • “List Faire orders still awaiting packing slips.”

From answering questions to doing the work

A person no longer has to ask. A trigger starts the work, inside the same permissions and the same audit log as everything else. Automations and live dashboards are launching soon, on the Black plan.

Automations

A schedule starts real Faire work, unattended.

A trigger fetches Faire orders, drafts a digest, and waits for a person to approve it.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I connect Faire to Claude?

First connect Faire in Elaichi by pasting in your Faire API key. There is no OAuth application to register and no client ID or secret to generate. Then in Claude open Customize, then Connectors, then Add, and paste the endpoint https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp. After you sign in to Elaichi, Faire is ready to use in Claude.

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

Yes. Once Faire is connected in Elaichi, the same endpoint, https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, works in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, any MCP client and the Elaichi agent. You connect Faire once and every client picks it up.

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

It can list your Faire orders, open a specific order, mark orders as processing, cancel one, fetch a packing slip and record a shipment. It can also look up and update inventory and prices by SKU or variant, create and edit products, upload product images, and read retailer reviews. Short, specific asks such as 'show open Faire orders from this week' work better than long paragraphs.

Does connecting Faire give the AI access to my whole brand account?

The AI can only reach what the Faire API key you connected can reach, and it always acts as the person who signed in to Elaichi. Elaichi can narrow that further, for example limiting a team to reading orders, but it can never grant more than the underlying Faire access allows.

Can my team share one Faire connection?

Yes. One person connects Faire in Elaichi and shares the connection with a team, so nobody else ever handles the Faire API key. Each teammate still signs in to Elaichi as themselves, so every order update or price change in the audit log is tied to a named person.

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

Yes. In Elaichi you can restrict individual actions on the Faire connection, such as deleting a product, cancelling an order or updating prices. A blocked action is never shown to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or any other client, so no prompt, however worded, can reach it.

What happens to a Faire connection when someone leaves?

When you offboard someone in Elaichi, their access to Faire through every AI client ends immediately. A shared Faire connection keeps working for the rest of the team. If you want to remove Faire entirely, disconnecting it once in Elaichi removes it from every client at the same time.
