Humaans tools for your AI agents
165 tools are ready to call through Elaichi's MCP endpoint the moment you connect Humaans, 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 Humaans to Claude?
Two steps. In Elaichi, choose Humaans and paste in an API key from your Humaans account; 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 https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp. Claude will ask you to sign in to Elaichi as yourself, and Humaans is ready to use.
Does Humaans work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?
Yes. Once Humaans 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 Humaans once and every client picks it up.
What can an AI agent actually do with my Humaans data?
It can look up any person in Humaans, add a new hire, and update details like title, manager, or start date. It can list who is on time away, record or change leave, keep office locations current, and add or check the bank account on file for an employee. Short, specific asks work best, such as "who in the London office is out next week" rather than a long paragraph.
Does connecting Humaans give the AI access to everyone's records?
No. Every request runs as the person who signed in, so the AI sees exactly what that person can already see in Humaans, and nothing more. Elaichi can narrow that further, for example restricting bank details for a role, but it can never widen access beyond what Humaans itself allows that person.
Can I stop an agent from deleting or changing things in Humaans?
Yes. Restrictions in Elaichi work per action, so you can allow reading people and time away in Humaans while restricting updates, deletions, or anything touching bank accounts. A restricted action still appears in Elaichi's tool search, flagged as restricted, but Claude, ChatGPT, or any other client cannot run it, whatever the prompt says.
What happens to a Humaans connection when someone leaves?
Offboarding them in Elaichi ends their access to Humaans through every client at once. If they had shared a Humaans connection with a team, it keeps working for everyone else. If you want it gone entirely, disconnecting Humaans once in Elaichi removes it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Microsoft Copilot, and every other client at the same time.
Does the Humaans MCP connector work with Gemini, Codex, Claude Code or other MCP clients?
Yes. Humaans 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 Humaans?
Yes. Both let Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor use Humaans. 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 Humaans call.
How is Elaichi different from Composio for Humaans?
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 Humaans: one address, restrictions per role or user, and $15 per user per month. Both have role permissions and a log of every call.
