Subscription Platform
Ordway MCP connector
The Ordway connector brings customers, subscriptions, invoices, payments, payment runs, and products into Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and the Elaichi Agent, so each person can look up and update Ordway billing records inside their own access.

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.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How do I connect Ordway to Claude?
Connect Ordway in Elaichi first, which means pasting the API key from your Ordway account, then share it with your team. 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. Sign in to Elaichi as yourself and Ordway customers, subscriptions, and invoices are available in the conversation.
Does Ordway work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?
Yes. Ordway is connected once in Elaichi and reached through the same endpoint, https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, any MCP client, and the Elaichi Agent. Each client signs in over OAuth, so nobody pastes the Ordway API key into a chat app.
What can an AI agent actually do with my Ordway data?
It can list and look up Ordway customers, their contacts, payment methods, and notes, and create or update customers when details change. It can create and update subscriptions and invoices, record payments, start a payment run and check what it collected, and list or add products. Because Ordway exposes a lot of actions, short concrete asks such as "open invoices for Acme" work better than long sentences.
Does connecting Ordway give the AI everything in my billing account?
No. Every request runs inside the access of the person who signed in, so an agent sees the Ordway customers, invoices, and payments that person could see anyway. Elaichi can narrow that further with restrictions and can never widen it beyond what the Ordway account already allows.
Can I stop an agent from deleting or changing things in Ordway?
Yes. Restrictions in Elaichi apply per action, so you can allow reading Ordway customers and invoices while blocking updates, payment creation, or deleting a customer. A blocked action is never advertised to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or any other client, so no prompt can reach it.
What happens to an Ordway connection when someone leaves?
Offboarding that person in Elaichi ends their access to Ordway at once, across every client they used. A shared Ordway connection keeps working for everyone else on the team. If you disconnect Ordway in Elaichi, it disappears from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and the Elaichi Agent in one step.
