What teams do with Zesty.io through Elaichi

Ask in plain English. Each person’s AI can do only what they’re allowed to, and every action it takes in Zesty.io is logged.

  • Marketing

    See which Zesty.io instances you own

    Ask for a list of every Zesty.io instance your team runs, with names and IDs, before planning a site refresh or a new campaign microsite.

  • Web

    Pull up one instance's details fast

    Give the instance ID and get back its details in seconds, without opening the Zesty.io manager and clicking through the accounts view.

  • IT

    Check who has access to a site

    List every user on a Zesty.io instance ahead of a handover or a vendor change, so nobody is surprised by an unfamiliar name.

  • Security

    Review roles across every Zesty.io instance

    Ask which users hold owner or admin roles on each instance, then flag anyone whose role is broader than their job needs.

  • Operations

    Map a person to their instances

    When someone moves teams or leaves, list every Zesty.io instance they belong to so offboarding covers all of them.

  • Agency

    Audit client instances in one pass

    Agencies running several client sites can ask for all instances and their users at once, and turn the answer into a quarterly access report.

Try asking

  • “Which Zesty.io instances do I have access to?”
  • “List all users and roles on our marketing instance.”
  • “Show every instance where Priya holds an admin role.”

Elaichi vs Zapier MCP vs Composio for Zesty.io

All three can connect Zesty.io 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 Zesty.io, 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 Zesty.io tools Allow or restrict single Zesty.io 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 Zesty.io 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.

Zesty.io tools for your AI agents

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

Questions, answered

How do I connect Zesty.io to Claude?

Connect Zesty.io in Elaichi by pasting a Zesty.io API key when prompted. 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 as yourself and Zesty.io instances appear in Claude.

Does Zesty.io work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?

Yes. Once Zesty.io 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 Zesty.io once and every client picks it up.

What can an AI agent actually do with my Zesty.io data?

With this connector an agent can list your Zesty.io instances, pull up one instance by its ID, list the users on an instance, show which role each of those users holds, and list every instance a given user belongs to. It is a read-only view of instances and access, useful for access reviews, handovers, and offboarding checks.

Does connecting Zesty.io give the AI access to every instance?

No. Every request runs as the person who signed in, so the AI sees only the Zesty.io instances and users that person's API key can already reach. Elaichi can narrow that further with restrictions, and it never widens what Zesty.io itself allows.

Can my team share one Zesty.io connection?

Yes. One person connects Zesty.io in Elaichi and shares the connection with a team, and nobody else ever handles the API key. Each teammate still signs in to Elaichi as themselves, so the audit log records who asked for which Zesty.io instance or user list.

Can I stop an agent from changing or deleting things in Zesty.io?

This Zesty.io connector only reads instances, users, and roles, so it cannot change or delete anything. On top of that, Elaichi restrictions work per action, and 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 Zesty.io connection when someone leaves?

Offboarding a person in Elaichi ends their access to Zesty.io through every client at once. If they connected a shared Zesty.io connection, it keeps working for everyone else on the team. Disconnecting Zesty.io once in Elaichi removes it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Microsoft Copilot, and every other client together.

Does the Zesty.io MCP connector work with Gemini, Codex, Claude Code or other MCP clients?

Yes. Zesty.io 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 Zesty.io?

Yes. Both let Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor use Zesty.io. 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 Zesty.io call.

How is Elaichi different from Composio for Zesty.io?

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

Put Zesty.io in front of your team

14 days of Black, no credit card. Connect it once and pick what each team can call.

When the trial ends, nothing is deleted. You move to the free Personal plan, and connections, roles and the audit log stay where they are.
