Accordio AI
Super app for admin via MCP
Documentation
Give Claude the tools it's missing.
Claude can write anything. It can't see your hours, your clients or what you're owed, and it can't draft the invoice from them. Accordio is the back office it was missing: one MCP URL, 28 tools. Ask a question, get real figures. Ask for the invoice, get a draft. You press send.
Track, bill, invoice from Claude. The only time tracker where the AI sees the work and sends the invoice.
Accordio is an independent product that works with Claude through MCP, the open connector standard. It is not affiliated with Anthropic.
Connector

https://mcp.accordio.ai/mcp(Model Context Protocol, streamable HTTP) - Add it in Claude: https://claude.ai/new?modal=add-custom-connector#customize/connectors

Claude
Two minutes in the browser. Add it once and it follows your account everywhere: web, desktop, phone.
- Open the add-connector dialog This link opens it straight in Claude. Also reachable by hand: Settings, then Connectors.
- Add a custom connector and paste this URL Claude asks for a remote MCP server URL. This is it.
https://mcp.accordio.ai/mcp

Claude Code
Paste one prompt and Claude Code sets itself up: connector added, tracker installed.

1. run `claude mcp add --transport http accordio https://mcp.accordio.ai/mcp`
2. run `brew install --cask accordio-ai/tap/accordio`
3. tell me when it is connected, then show me what I worked on today
- Connect and start tracking Approve the sign-in it opens, then ask "what did I work on today?". On a fresh account it offers to create your first client and start a timer on this session.
Codex
Same MCP server, same tools. Codex wires it up itself from one prompt.
- Copy and send this to Codex It adds the connector to its own config, installs the tracker, and reports back.
Set up Accordio for me:
1. add an MCP server named "accordio": transport http, url https://mcp.accordio.ai/mcp, no auth headers (OAuth handles sign-in)
2. run `brew install --cask accordio-ai/tap/accordio`
3. tell me when it is connected, then show me what I worked on today
- Connect and start tracking Approve the sign-in it opens, then ask "what did I work on today?". Answers come from your real tracked time.

Hermes
Works over plain MCP. Any host that speaks streamable HTTP can hold the connector.

ChatGPT
Same server, same tools. ChatGPT holds it through developer mode: any paid plan, set up in the browser.
- Turn on developer mode In ChatGPT on the web: Settings, then Apps, then Advanced settings, switch developer mode on. It needs a paid plan. On Business and Enterprise, an admin allows it first.
- Create a connector and paste this URL Settings, then Connectors, then Create. Name it Accordio, pick OAuth, no headers. ChatGPT asks you before any tool writes anything.
https://mcp.accordio.ai/mcp

What it will not do
Claude drafts. You send.
Claude can
- Read the time your Mac tracked, and the clients and projects it belongs to.
- Start and stop timers, and log hours you tell it about.
- Reassign tracked entries to the right project, and fix ones you say are wrong.
- Create a client or a project, when you ask for one.
- Read invoices, contracts, proposals, tasks and expenses, and file the ones you dictate.
- Read your calendar and put events on it. It never emails an invitation.
- Draft an invoice, a proposal or a contract, and hand you the link.
Claude cannot
-
Send anything. No invoice, no email, no message leaves Accordio from a chat.
-
Sign anything. Signatures happen in Accordio, by the person signing.
-
Delete anything. There is no delete verb on the connector at all.
-
Take a payment, or move money in any direction.
-
The connection is scoped OAuth. You see the exact list before you approve it, and you revoke it in Accordio settings whenever you like.
-
Accordio does not train models on your work.
-
The macOS tracker is open source. Read the capture engine before you run it.
FAQ
What can Claude actually see?
Your tracked time, the clients and projects it belongs to, and a summary of your open invoices and projects. Never your screen. Window titles and screenshots stay on your Mac.
Is this made by Anthropic?
No. Accordio is an independent product. It works with Claude through MCP, the open connector standard. No partnership, no affiliation.
Can Claude send an invoice on its own?
No. Claude drafts, you send. Every draft opens in Accordio so you can check the numbers and press send yourself. There is no send, sign or delete button on the connector.
Does my data train a model?
No. Accordio does not train models on your work.
What does it cost?
Tracking and asking are free forever. Drafting invoices, proposals and contracts is Legend: $39 a month, or $29 a month billed yearly, with a 14-day trial.
Do I need the Mac app?
Only for automatic tracking, which is Mac-only for now. Without it you can still start timers and log hours by asking Claude.
Does it work on my phone?
Yes. In the Claude mobile app once the connector is on your account, or by texting on WhatsApp or Telegram. Automatic tracking still runs on the Mac.
What about ChatGPT?
It works today through ChatGPT developer mode on any paid plan. Same server, same tools, same rules: drafts only, nothing sent.
Is the tracker really open source?
Yes. The Mac capture code is public, so you can read exactly what gets recorded before you install it.
How do I disconnect?
Accordio settings, Connected apps, Revoke. The tools stop within a minute and your tracked time stays where it is.
