Connectors & MCP
Connect Claude to the systems you run on.
Claude is far more useful when it can see your real data and take approved actions in your real systems. Using the Model Context Protocol (MCP), the open standard Claude uses to connect to tools, we set up off-the-shelf connectors and build secure custom ones for your line-of-business apps, databases and internal APIs.
What's included

02 8883 3377What is MCP?
The Model Context Protocol is an open standard, introduced by Anthropic, that lets AI apps like Claude connect to tools and data. A connector built once can be used across Claude's apps, Claude Code and other MCP-compatible tools.
Are third-party connectors safe?
Some are better than others. We review who publishes a connector, what data it can reach and what actions it can take before enabling it, the same way we'd vet any other app.
Can Claude change data in our systems?
Only if you let it. We start with read-only access and add actions one at a time, with Claude asking for approval before it makes changes.
