For IT and engineering

Elaichi vs Zapier MCP vs Composio for PayFit

All three can connect PayFit 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 PayFit, 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 PayFit tools Allow or restrict single PayFit 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 PayFit 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.

PayFit tools for your AI agents

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

Questions, answered

How do I connect PayFit to Claude?

Connect PayFit in Elaichi by pasting your PayFit API key, which takes about a minute. Then open Claude, go to Customize, then Connectors, then Add, and paste the endpoint https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp. There is no OAuth application to register in PayFit and no client ID or secret to generate.

Does PayFit work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?

Yes. Once PayFit 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 PayFit once and every client picks it up.

What can an AI agent actually do with my PayFit data?

An agent connected to PayFit can tell you whether payroll has run, list payment files and accounting entries, look up an employee's contract and working time, and show absences and meal voucher counts. It can also create a contract, record a regularization, file a billing declaration and update health insurance or provident fund details. It reads income tax documents and other PayFit documents when you ask for them.

Does connecting PayFit give the AI access to every employee's payroll?

No. Access follows the person who signed in, so an agent working through PayFit sees only what that person's PayFit access already allows. Elaichi can narrow that further with roles and restrictions, and it never widens it.

Can my team share one PayFit connection?

Yes. One person connects PayFit in Elaichi and shares it with a team, and nobody else ever handles the API key. Each teammate still signs in as themselves, so every PayFit action in the audit log is tied to a named person.

Can I stop an agent from creating or changing things in PayFit?

Yes. Restrictions in Elaichi work per action, so you can allow reading payroll status and contracts while restricting the creation of contracts, regularizations or billing declarations in PayFit. A restricted action still appears in Elaichi's tool search, flagged as restricted, but the AI client cannot run it, whatever the prompt says.

What happens to a PayFit connection when someone leaves?

Offboarding a person in Elaichi ends their access to PayFit through every connected client at once. A PayFit connection shared with the team keeps working for everyone else. If you want to remove PayFit entirely, disconnecting it once in Elaichi removes it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Microsoft Copilot and every other client.

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

Yes. PayFit 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 PayFit?

Yes. Both let Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor use PayFit. 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 PayFit call.

How is Elaichi different from Composio for PayFit?

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