Connect Every to Claude and other AI tools

Last updated: October 14, 2026

Connect Every to Claude, Cursor, Codex and other AI tools that support MCP. Your AI tool can then read your Every data and answer questions about it: cash, card spend, transactions, financial statements, your team, and your own pay and benefits.

The connection is read-only. It cannot move money, pay bills, change payroll or edit any record.

Before you start

  • You need an Every account.

  • Your company must have the Every MCP connection turned on. If it is off, you see "MCP connections are not enabled for this company". Contact Every support to turn it on.

Connect from Claude

This works on Claude on the web, Claude Desktop and Claude mobile.

  1. In Claude, open Settings, then Connectors.

  2. Find Every in the directory and select Connect.

  3. Sign in to Every.

  4. Choose your company, review the access request, and select Allow.

If Every is not in the directory yet, select Add custom connector and enter https://api.every.io/api/mcp. Then follow steps 3 and 4.

Ask Claude a question such as "What is our cash balance across all accounts?"

Connect from Claude Code

Run this in your terminal, from the folder you work in:

claude mcp add --transport http every https://api.every.io/api/mcp

Then run claude, type /mcp, select every, and sign in to Every in the browser window that opens.

Other AI tools (Cursor, Codex, Windsurf, Claude Desktop config)

These tools connect with a personal token.

  1. In Every, open your account menu, then Integrations, then MCP.

  2. Select Create token. Give it a name you will recognize, such as "Cursor – work laptop", and choose when it expires: 90 days, 180 days, 1 year, or never.

  3. Copy the token now. Every shows it only once.

  4. Pick your tool from the list and copy the setup snippet into the file it names. Restart the tool.

What your AI tool can see

The connection acts as you, in the company you chose. It sees only what your Every role lets you see in the app.

Manage or remove access

In Every, open your account menu, then Integrations, then MCP.

  • Connected apps lists every AI tool you signed in from, such as Claude. Select Revoke to disconnect it.

  • Tokens lists your personal tokens with their created, last used and expiry dates. Select Revoke to disconnect the tool that uses it.

You can also disconnect Every inside Claude, under Settings, then Connectors.

Troubleshooting

  • "MCP connections are not enabled for this company": the connection is off for your company. Contact Every support.

  • Claude asks you to sign in again: your access was revoked or expired. Connect again.

  • A token stopped working: it expired or was revoked. Create a new one.

  • Claude Code does not see Every: run claude from the same folder where you ran claude mcp add.

Privacy

Your AI tool gets your data only when it calls a tool to answer your question. Every does not store your AI conversations. See the Every privacy policy.
