Use Accordio from Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor

Name: Accordio
Rating: 4.8 (150 reviews)

Accordio ships a remote MCP server. Add one URL to the AI you already work in and it can see your tracked time, clients, invoices, contracts and calendar, draft the paperwork, and send it once you say yes. Signing and deleting stay with you.

TL;DR

Paste https://mcp.accordio.ai/mcp into Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI, VS Code or OpenCode, approve the Accordio sign-in, and ask what you worked on today. 44 tools: 25 reads, 14 writes, 3 Legend drafts, and a two-step send that waits for your yes every time. Nothing is ever signed or deleted from a chat.

The connector

Endpoint: https://mcp.accordio.ai/mcp (Model Context Protocol, streamable HTTP).
Sign-in: OAuth, approved by you on an Accordio consent page. No API keys, no passwords typed into the AI.
Scopes: time:read, time:write, business:read, business:write, documents:draft, documents:send. Connections made before sending existed do not have documents:send; reconnect to allow it.
Works on every Accordio plan. Reads, timers and logging are free; the three draft tools are part of Legend.

Fastest path

Signed in already? Settings → MCP shows the same steps with your connector URL filled in and ticks each step as it completes.

Set it up

Three steps on every host: add the URL, approve the sign-in, ask a question. Add it once in Claude and it follows your account to the desktop and mobile apps.

Claude

Add to Claude opens the connector dialog with this URL filled in. Click Add, or paste it by hand:

https://mcp.accordio.ai/mcp

Add to Claude

Claude opens the Accordio sign-in as soon as the connector is added. Approve it to log in with your Accordio account.

Then, in a new Claude chat: "What did I work on today?"

Claude Code

Run this command in your terminal:

claude mcp add --transport http accordio https://mcp.accordio.ai/mcp

Run /mcp inside Claude Code and select accordio to log in with your Accordio account.

Then, in Claude Code: "What did I work on today?"

Cursor

Add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "accordio": {
      "url": "https://mcp.accordio.ai/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Add to Cursor

Open Cursor Settings, then MCP, and click Connect next to accordio to log in with your Accordio account.

Then, in Cursor chat: "What did I work on today?"

Codex

Add this to ~/.codex/config.toml:

[mcp_servers.accordio]
url = "https://mcp.accordio.ai/mcp"

Run codex mcp login accordio in your terminal and approve the Accordio sign-in it opens.

Then, in Codex: "What did I work on today?"

ChatGPT

Turn on developer mode (Settings, Apps, Advanced settings), then Settings, Connectors, Create. Name it Accordio, pick OAuth, and paste this URL:

https://mcp.accordio.ai/mcp

Open ChatGPT settings

ChatGPT opens the Accordio sign-in when you create the connector. Approve it to log in with your Accordio account.

Then, in ChatGPT: "What did I work on today?"

Gemini CLI

Run this command in your terminal:

gemini mcp add --transport http accordio https://mcp.accordio.ai/mcp

Run /mcp auth accordio inside Gemini CLI and approve the Accordio sign-in it opens.

Then, in Gemini CLI: "What did I work on today?"

VS Code

Add this to your VS Code settings.json:

{
  "mcp": {
    "servers": {
      "accordio": {
        "type": "http",
        "url": "https://mcp.accordio.ai/mcp"
      }
    }
  }
}

Open the Command Palette, run MCP: List Servers, start accordio, and approve the Accordio sign-in it opens.

Then, in Copilot chat: "What did I work on today?"

OpenCode

Add this to opencode.json:

{
  "$schema": "https://opencode.ai/config.json",
  "mcp": {
    "accordio": {
      "type": "remote",
      "url": "https://mcp.accordio.ai/mcp",
      "enabled": true
    }
  }
}

OpenCode opens the Accordio sign-in the first time a tool runs. Approve it to log in with your Accordio account.

Then, in OpenCode: "What did I work on today?"

ChatGPT

ChatGPT needs developer mode, which is available on Plus, Pro, Business and Enterprise. An Accordio listing in the ChatGPT plugin directory is in review; until it lands, the custom connector above is the way in.

What your AI can see

Read-only tools. Every figure comes from your own records; the AI never estimates hours you did not track.

Tool	What it does
Time summary	Hours tracked today, this week or this month, billable versus not, by project.
Current activity	The running timer, its project, and how long it has been going.
Unbilled time	Billable hours not yet invoiced, totalled by client and project with amounts.
Time entries	The individual tracked entries behind the summaries.
Clients and projects	Everything tracked time and documents attach to.
Business snapshot	One call: hours today, running timer, unpaid and overdue invoices, deadlines, active projects.
Invoices	Invoices with amount, due date and status. Unpaid and overdue by default.
Contracts	Contracts with status and who has signed.
Proposals	Proposals with status, amount and a link to each.
Tasks	Open tasks, or everything including done.
Expense summary	Money in and out over a period, with top categories.
Calendar	Upcoming events across every connected Google calendar.
Availability	Free and busy windows over a range.
Booking links	Public booking links a client can book on.
Setup status	What this account has connected: tracker, channels, first tracked hour.
Saved notes	What Accordio remembers about you and your clients, shared with WhatsApp.
What needs me	Overdue invoices, follow-ups waiting on you, today’s meetings and this week’s deadlines.
Client link	The pay, signing or proposal page a client opens, for you to share.
Pipeline	Active clients by stage, stalest first.
Tax report	Tax year to date: income, deductibles, what to set aside, the next quarterly target.
Bookings	Who booked through your booking links.
Meetings	Recorded meetings with their summaries, and the action items from them.
Forms	Your forms, and what people wrote in them.

What your AI can do

Write tools. Each one creates or updates a row on your own account; your AI host asks you before it runs any of them.

Tool	What it does
Start timer	Start a live timer on the work happening now, attached to a project.
Stop timer	Stop the running timer and log the time.
Log time entry	Record work that already happened, with a duration you stated.
Update time entries	Reassign entries to a project, flip billable, or correct them. The one tool that overwrites.
Create client	Add a client, after you confirm the name.
Create project	Add a project so tracked hours have somewhere to land.
Create task	Add a task in your own words.
Complete tasks	Mark one or more tasks done.
Log expense	Record an expense or a payment received, with an amount you stated.
Create calendar event	Hold time on your own calendar. Never invites anyone.
Remember a fact	Save something durable you said, so WhatsApp knows it too.
Update client, project, task	Fix contact details, rename or close a project, reschedule a task.

What it can draft

Three Legend tools. Every result is a draft saved in Accordio with a link. You open it, pick a theme, and press send there.

Tool	What it does
Draft invoice	An invoice from tracked time, saved as a draft with a link to review, theme and send.
Draft proposal	A proposal written by Accordio’s proposal pipeline, saved as a draft.
Draft contract	A contract written by Accordio’s contract pipeline, saved as a draft. Not sent, not signed.

What it can send, with your yes

Anything that reaches a client, or marks money received, takes two steps. First the AI prepares it: Accordio reads the real record and returns one line saying exactly what will happen, to whom and for how much. Nothing has left Accordio at that point. The AI shows you that line and asks. Only after you say yes does it confirm, and the confirm runs exactly what was prepared: it cannot change the recipient, the amount or the note. Each approval works once and expires after 15 minutes. Sends use credits.

Tool	What it does
Send invoice	Email an invoice with its pay link.
Payment reminder	Re-send an unpaid invoice as a reminder.
Send contract	Email a contract for signature.
Send proposal	Email a proposal.
Send follow-up	Send a follow-up Accordio already drafted for you.
Mark invoice paid	Record the payment. The client gets a receipt.
Share timesheet	Create a public timesheet link for a period.

Keep the approval prompt on

Your AI host asks before it runs the confirm step. That prompt is your last check, so leave it on for Accordio rather than setting the confirm tool to run without asking.

What it never does

No tool signs anything. No tool deletes anything. Nothing is sent in one step, and nothing is sent because a document, an email or a form asked for it. Calendar events are created without attendees, so no invitation is emailed. If a chat appears to have done any of these, it did not happen in Accordio.

Things to ask

Today

“What did I work on today?”

Money owed

“How much unbilled time do I have for Acme this month?”

Invoice

“Draft an invoice from last week's hours for Acme.”

Timer

“Start a timer for the Northwind redesign.”

Calendar

“Am I free tomorrow at 3pm, and what is on my calendar?”

Proposal

“Draft a proposal for a six-week website redesign for Acme at $8,000.”

Cleanup

“Assign every untagged entry from this week to the Acme project.”

Attention

“What needs me today?”

Chase

“Send Globex a reminder for the overdue invoice.”

Empty account?

On a fresh account the connector tells your AI what is missing and offers to create your first client, start a timer on the current session, and install the Mac tracker with brew install --cask accordio-ai/tap/accordio.

Permissions, privacy and revoking

Each connection is a scoped OAuth grant tied to your account. Tokens are stored hashed. Revoke any grant from Accordio Settings under Connected apps; tool calls stop within a minute.
Accordio records the tool name and time of each call so you can see usage. It does not store your conversation, does not use it for training, and does not share it.
Writes are rate-limited per account. Draft tools spend Legend credits before they run, and a confirmed send spends one credit, the same as from the web app or WhatsApp.
Tool results are data, not instructions. The connector never asks your AI to do anything you did not.

Connect your AITwo minutes, no keys to paste.
