Use cases
Your AI app, with your business behind it.
From starting a timer in your editor to a quarter's revenue in a chat, asked in plain words.
MCP Server
Run your invoices, timers and calendar from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or any AI app that speaks MCP.
Your AI app
PineBill connectedStart the timer on the homepage redesign task
PineBill's MCP server connects the AI app you already use to your PineBill organization. Ask it to find an overdue invoice, start the timer on a task, put a client call on the calendar or log an expense, and it does that in PineBill, as you, with the access you chose when you signed in. Your AI app does the reasoning, so it doesn't use PineBill AI credits.
Works in the app you already use
Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code, Claude Code, Codex, and any other app that supports remote MCP servers.
Reaches your real records
56 tools across invoices, estimates, customers, products, expenses, projects, tasks, timers, the calendar and reports.
You choose the access

No AI credits spent
Your AI app does the thinking, so working through MCP never draws on your PineBill AI credit balance.

Timers
Start, pause, resume and stop by asking
Say “start the timer on the homepage redesign” and it starts in PineBill. Ask what's running, pause for lunch, and stop when you're done. Every stretch lands on the task's tracked total, ready to bill as invoice line items.

Everything PineBill does, as tools
56 tools, each with a clear name, so your AI app picks the right one from your request.
The tool surface
From the first quote to the last report
Look up a customer, draft an estimate, turn it into an invoice, email it, log the expense for the materials, and ask how the quarter is going, all in one conversation. Tools that send email or delete records are marked as destructive, so your AI app asks before it runs them.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything about connecting AI apps to PineBill: setup, access, privacy and cost. Can't find what you're after? Reach out to our team.
MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an open standard that lets AI apps use other software on your behalf. PineBill's MCP server gives apps like Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor a set of tools for your invoices, estimates, customers, products, expenses, projects, tasks, timers, calendar and reports.
Claude (web and desktop), ChatGPT on the web, Cursor, VS Code, Claude Code and Codex all have step-by-step guides. Any other app that supports remote HTTP MCP servers with OAuth sign-in can connect too.
https://www.pinebill.app/api/mcp. You can also copy it from Settings → Connect MCPs in your dashboard, which has one-click setup for each app.
No. The first time your AI app connects, it opens a PineBill sign-in page. You sign in with your existing account and choose the access level, and the app handles the rest.
Only if you allow it. On the consent screen you choose view only, which reads records, or view and edit, which also lets the app create, update, send and delete them. Your PineBill role still applies, and Guests are always view only. Most AI apps also ask you to approve each action before it runs, and tools that send email or delete records are marked as destructive so they ask first.
No. Your AI app does the reasoning, so working through MCP doesn't spend PineBill AI credits. Credits are only used by the AI Assistant built into the PineBill dashboard.
Every plan, including the free trial, with no AI credits used. Plan limits apply the same way they do in the dashboard: if a report isn't on your plan, the app tells you so. A fair-use limit of 120 requests a minute and 30 emails an hour per user keeps the service fast; normal use stays well below it.
Yes. When the app creates or updates an invoice or estimate, it gets a private link to the PDF that you can open from the chat, and you can ask for the PDF of any existing document. Links expire after an hour, so ask again for a new one. To send a document to a customer, have the app email it.
Yes. Ask it to start, pause, resume or stop the timer on any task, see which timers are running, add or remove minutes by hand, or read a task's time history. Tracked time lands on the task, ready to bill.
Go to Settings → Connect MCPs in your dashboard and click Disconnect next to the app. It loses access on its next request. You can connect it again whenever you like.
Only the records it asks for while you use it, from your PineBill organization. Internal identifiers are removed from responses, and payment methods are shared by name and type only, never their bank or card details. Once shared, the data is handled by the AI app under its own privacy policy. There are 56 tools in total, listed in the docs.
