Questions, answered
How do I connect Wave to Claude?
Connecting Wave to Claude takes two steps. First, connect Wave in Elaichi: you are sent to Wave's own sign-in window, you log in and approve, and 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, and Wave is then available in your conversation.
Does Wave work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?
Yes. Once Wave 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 Wave once and every client you use picks it up, with the same permissions and the same audit log.
What can an AI agent actually do with my Wave data?
With Wave connected, an agent can create, update, and remove customers, build and edit estimates, mark an estimate accepted, convert it to an invoice, clone it, generate its PDF, and send a deposit payment receipt. It can also add or change accounts in your Wave chart of accounts and look up which businesses, currencies, and countries your account uses. Wave has many actions available, so short, specific asks such as "convert estimate 1042 to an invoice" work better than long paragraphs.
Does connecting Wave give the AI access to every business in my account?
No. An agent working through Wave sees exactly the businesses, customers, and estimates that the person who signed in can see, and nothing more, because every call runs inside that person's own Wave access. Elaichi can narrow that further, for example by taking away the ability to delete customers, but it can never grant anything Wave itself would not allow that person.
Can I stop an agent from deleting or changing things in Wave?
Yes. Restrictions in Elaichi work per action, so you can allow an agent to create and update Wave customers and estimates while restricting deletion of customers, estimates, or accounts entirely. 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 Wave connection when someone leaves?
When you offboard someone in Elaichi, their access to Wave through every client ends immediately, whether they were using Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Microsoft Copilot, or the Elaichi Agent. If they had shared a Wave connection with a team, it keeps working for everyone else on that team. If you ever want Wave gone completely, disconnecting it once in Elaichi removes it from every client at the same time.
Does the Wave MCP connector work with Gemini, Codex, Claude Code or other MCP clients?
Yes. Wave 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 Wave?
Yes. Both let Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor use Wave. 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 Wave call.
How is Elaichi different from Composio for Wave?
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 Wave: one address, restrictions per role or user, and $15 per user per month. Both have role permissions and a log of every call.
