Elaichi vs Zapier MCP vs Composio for GitBook

A server per member, created at sign-in. | An MCP endpoint per team, or an SDK. |
| Control over GitBook tools | Allow or restrict single GitBook 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 GitBook 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. |

Questions, answered
How do I connect GitBook to Claude?
First connect GitBook in Elaichi by pasting an API key from your GitBook account settings. Then in Claude open Customize, then Connectors, then Add, and paste the endpoint https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp. There is no OAuth application to register and no client ID or secret to generate, and the whole thing takes a few minutes.
Does GitBook work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?
Yes. Once GitBook 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 GitBook once and every client you use picks it up.
What can an AI agent actually do with my GitBook data?
With GitBook connected, an agent can list your organizations, members, teams, and documentation sites, look up a specific person or team, send or withdraw invites, update a member's role, create or rename teams, and create a new site. Because GitBook offers a large set of actions, short concrete asks such as "list pending GitBook invites" work better than long paragraphs.
Does connecting GitBook give the AI access to my whole organization?
No. Every request runs as the person who signed in, so the agent sees only the GitBook organizations, members, and sites that person can already see, and GitBook's own permissions still apply. Elaichi can narrow that access further with restrictions, but it can never widen it beyond what GitBook itself allows.
Can I stop an agent from deleting or changing things in GitBook?
Yes. Restrictions in Elaichi apply per action, so you can allow listing GitBook members and sites while restricting anything that deletes an organization, removes a member, or changes a team. 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 GitBook connection when someone leaves?
When you offboard a person in Elaichi, their access to GitBook through every AI client ends at once. A GitBook connection they were sharing keeps working for the rest of the team. If you later disconnect GitBook once in Elaichi, it is removed from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Microsoft Copilot, and every other client at the same time.
Does the GitBook MCP connector work with Gemini, Codex, Claude Code or other MCP clients?
Yes. GitBook 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 GitBook?
Yes. Both let Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor use GitBook. 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 GitBook call.
How is Elaichi different from Composio for GitBook?
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 GitBook: one address, restrictions per role or user, and $15 per user per month. Both have role permissions and a log of every call.
