Housecall Pro MCP connector

Connect Housecall Pro once in Elaichi and Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and the Elaichi Agent can look up customers, create and dispatch jobs, add line items and notes, draft estimates, and read invoices under each person's own access.

  • 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.

Use cases

What teams do with Housecall Pro through Elaichi

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

  • Dispatch

    Book and dispatch a job from a call

    A customer calls about a leaking water heater and the dispatcher asks for a job to be created at their address and sent to the nearest available technician. The job lands on the board without anyone leaving the phone.

  • Office

    Add a new customer and service address

    When a first-time caller books, the office adds the customer and their service address to Housecall Pro by describing it in plain words. Repeat callers are found by name or phone number before anything is duplicated.

  • Sales

    Draft an estimate while the lead is warm

    After a site visit, the salesperson asks for an estimate for the furnace replacement they just scoped. It is ready to review before they are back in the truck.

  • Finance

    See which invoices are still open

    Billing asks which invoices from last week have not been paid and gets the list with amounts and customers. A preview of any single invoice is a question away.

  • Field

    Catch the job up after the visit

    Technicians add the parts they used as line items and leave a note about what they found, so the office sees the full picture before invoicing.

  • Management

    Lock finished jobs at week's end

    The owner asks to lock every completed job from the week so nobody edits line items after the numbers have been reviewed.

Try asking

  • “Dispatch the 2 pm water heater job to Marco.”
  • “Draft an estimate for the Hendersons' furnace replacement.”
  • “Which invoices from last week are still unpaid?”

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I connect Housecall Pro to Claude?

First connect Housecall Pro in Elaichi by pasting your Housecall Pro API key, which you can copy from your Housecall Pro account 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 as the endpoint. Claude asks you to sign in to Elaichi and Housecall Pro is ready.

Does Housecall Pro work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?

Yes. Once Housecall Pro is connected in Elaichi, the same endpoint, https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, works in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, any other MCP client, and the Elaichi Agent. You connect Housecall Pro once and every client uses it.

What can an AI agent actually do with my Housecall Pro data?

An agent connected to Housecall Pro can find a customer by name, add a new customer and service address, create a job and dispatch it to a technician, add line items and notes to a job, draft an estimate, and look up invoices including a preview of a single one. Short concrete asks work best, such as asking it to dispatch the 2 pm job to Marco rather than writing a long paragraph.

Does connecting Housecall Pro give the AI access to every job and customer?

The AI only sees what the person who signed in can see in Housecall Pro, because every call runs under that person's own access. Elaichi can narrow that further by restricting specific actions, but it can never widen it. Someone who cannot lock jobs in Housecall Pro cannot lock them through Claude either.

Can my team share one Housecall Pro connection?

Yes. One person connects Housecall Pro in Elaichi with the API key and shares the connection with a team, and nobody else ever handles the key. Each teammate still signs in to Elaichi as themselves, so the audit log names the dispatcher who booked the job, not a shared account.

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

Yes. Restrictions in Elaichi apply per action, so you can allow reading Housecall Pro jobs and invoices while blocking deleting line items or notes. A restricted action is left out of the AI client's list entirely and cannot be called, whatever the prompt says.

What happens to a Housecall Pro connection when someone leaves?

Offboarding a person in Elaichi ends their access to Housecall Pro through every AI client at once. A shared Housecall Pro connection keeps working for everyone else on the team. If you want to remove Housecall Pro altogether, disconnecting it once in Elaichi removes it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and every other client.

Does the Housecall Pro MCP connector work with Gemini, Codex, Claude Code or other MCP clients?

Yes. Housecall Pro 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, 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 Housecall Pro?

Yes. Both let Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor use Housecall Pro. 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 Housecall Pro call.

How is Elaichi different from Composio for Housecall Pro?

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