What teams do with Herd Security through Elaichi

Ask in plain English. Each person’s AI can do only what they’re allowed to, and every action it takes in Herd Security is logged.

  • Security

    Check who is enrolled in training

    Ask which users are enrolled in Herd Security training before the quarterly review, and spot anyone who has not been picked up yet.

  • IT

    Confirm new hires appear in Herd Security

    Pull the Herd Security user list after a batch of new starters and compare it against the accounts you provisioned that week.

  • Compliance

    Gather training coverage for an audit

    List enrollments and the trainings attached to each tag so the evidence an auditor asks for is ready without logging in to export it.

  • People

    See which trainings a group receives

    Ask what trainings apply to a tag such as a department or office, so you can tell a manager exactly what their team is assigned.

  • Security

    Find tags with nothing assigned

    List every Herd Security tag alongside its trainings to catch groups of users who have no training tied to them.

  • Operations

    Answer a manager's training question fast

    When a team lead asks whether their people are covered, pull the enrollments for that group and reply in the same conversation.

Try asking

  • “Which users have open Herd Security enrollments this month?”

Elaichi vs Zapier MCP vs Composio for Herd Security

All three can connect Herd Security 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 Herd Security, 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 Herd Security tools Allow or restrict single Herd Security 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 Herd Security 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.

Herd Security tools for your AI agents

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

Questions, answered

How do I connect Herd Security to Claude?

Connect Herd Security in Elaichi first: pick it from the catalog and paste in a Herd Security API key, since that is how Herd Security signs in. 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 the endpoint https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp. Sign in to Elaichi when prompted and Herd Security enrollments, users, tags, and tag trainings are available in Claude.

Does Herd Security work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?

Yes. Once Herd Security 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 Herd Security once and every client picks it up.

What can an AI agent actually do with my Herd Security data?

With Herd Security connected, an agent can list your enrollments, list your users, list your tags, and list the trainings attached to each tag. That means you can ask who is enrolled, which people are in Herd Security, how users are grouped, and what training a given group receives, then have the answer summarized in plain language. This connector reads from Herd Security; it does not create or change anything there.

Does connecting Herd Security give the AI access to everything in my account?

No. A Herd Security connection carries the access of the API key it was set up with, and every request runs inside that access, so the agent sees no more of Herd Security than that key allows. Elaichi can narrow what is exposed further, for example by leaving out enrollments for a particular role, but it can never widen access beyond what Herd Security itself permits.

Can my team share one Herd Security connection?

Yes. One person connects Herd Security with the API key and shares the connection with a team in Elaichi, and nobody else on that team ever sees or handles the key. Each teammate still signs in to Elaichi as themselves, so the audit log names the actual person behind every Herd Security request.

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

This Herd Security connector only lists enrollments, users, tags, and tag trainings, so there is nothing in it that deletes or changes records. 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 Herd Security connection when someone leaves?

When you offboard a person in Elaichi, their access to Herd Security through Elaichi ends at once, in every client they had connected. If they shared a Herd Security connection with a team, that connection keeps working for everyone else. If you want to remove Herd Security entirely, disconnecting it once in Elaichi removes it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Microsoft Copilot, and every other client together.

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

Yes. Herd Security 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 Herd Security?

Yes. Both let Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor use Herd Security. 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 Herd Security call.

How is Elaichi different from Composio for Herd Security?

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 Herd Security: one address, restrictions per role or user, and $15 per user per month. Both have role permissions and a log of every call.

Put Herd Security in front of your team

14 days of Black, no credit card. Connect it once and pick what each team can call.

When the trial ends, nothing is deleted. You move to the free Personal plan, and connections, roles and the audit log stay where they are.
