Ask your own Claude about the whole group
MCP for financial analysis: connect Claude, ChatGPT or Codex to Control and ask in plain words. It reads every entity’s ledger, already consolidated, and every figure it quotes opens to the transactions behind it.
Taito.ai · The team can also query its financial data through the MCP integration, bringing the same structured numbers into the AI tools it already uses.

- 01Your own loginThe client signs in as you and sees only what your role in Control allows.
- 02Asks before it writesCorrections and budget values stay proposals until you approve them. A locked version refuses every write.
- 03Your provider, your decisionControl’s own AI processes data in the EU. What your client reads is processed under your agreement with its provider.
Ledger access, write-back and ISO/IEC 27001 are on trust.control.dev.
Connect in three steps
Your Control administrator registers the client once. After that, each person connects with their own login.
Setup for each client in the product docs1. Copy your server URL
In Control, open Data outputs and then MCP Server. The URL there points at your workspace.
2. Add it to your client and sign in
Add Control to Claude, ChatGPT or Codex as a remote MCP server, then sign in with your Control login.
3. Ask something you already know
One company, one month, one figure. Check it against the same view in Control, then ask the bigger questions.
Keep your agents. Give them a group to read
If your team has wired Claude to a ledger itself, Control becomes the layer your agents and skills read from.
Consolidated before the agent reads it
Every entity is mapped to one group chart of accounts, with eliminations and currency translation already done.
Finance tools, not raw tables
Statements, cash flow, entity comparisons, the elimination review and transaction search, each with the entries behind the figure.
Your skills keep working
Skills live in your own client and run with the permissions of the connected workspace.
More finished work from one sentence, from a checked month to a budget, is on AI agents in finance. The monthly board pack in last month’s format is on Financial reporting.
Does Control.dev have an MCP server?
Yes. Every Control.dev workspace has a remote MCP server. Claude, ChatGPT and Codex connect to it with OAuth, each person signs in with their own Control login and their Control role applies, and other MCP clients that support remote servers and OAuth sign-in connect the same way. MCP access is included in every plan, from €249 a month.
Which AI clients can connect?
Claude, ChatGPT and Codex connect to Control over MCP. Other MCP clients that support remote servers and OAuth sign-in connect the same way.
Can we limit a connection to reading?
Yes. A read-only connection gets no write tools, and Control checks the access again on every call. It is a choice you make per connection, not the default, so set it before the first sign-in.
What does our administrator need to do?
Register the client once in Control. After that, each person adds the workspace’s server URL to their client and signs in with their own Control login.
How is this different from connecting Claude to our accounting system’s API?
The ledger’s API gives one company’s raw rows. Control gives the whole group, mapped to one chart of accounts with eliminations and currencies done, as statements with the entries behind each figure.
Ask your first question in the call
In 30 minutes we connect Claude, ChatGPT or Codex to a four-ledger sample group, ask the two questions above and go through what your security team will want to know.
The app works best on a desktop browser.
