Connect Claude or ChatGPT to your books
Kantax speaks MCP — the protocol AI tools use to connect to real systems. Connect once, and you can keep the books by typing instead of clicking through forms.
Getting started
- 1Add Kantax to your AI tool using the command or address below.
- 2The tool opens Kantax in your browser. Log in as usual.
- 3Choose what the program is allowed to do, and approve it.
Pick your tool
No key to copy, no password to paste. You approve the connection in the browser and can revoke it whenever you like.
Claude (claude.ai and Claude Desktop)
Go to Customize → Connectors → Add connector → Add custom connector, name it Kantax and paste the address:
https://kantax.no/api/mcp/v1Claude opens Kantax in your browser. Log in, choose the access level and approve. Turn Kantax on under the tools icon in the chat.
ChatGPT
Needs a paid ChatGPT plan. Turn on Developer mode under Settings → Apps → Advanced settings. Then choose Create app (or Add custom connector), pick OAuth as authentication and paste the address:
https://kantax.no/api/mcp/v1ChatGPT opens Kantax to log in and approve. Pick Kantax in the chat before you ask.
Claude Code
Run this in your terminal:
claude mcp add --transport http kantax https://kantax.no/api/mcp/v1Then type /mcp in Claude Code and follow the login.
Codex
Run in your terminal:
codex mcp add kantax --url https://kantax.no/api/mcp/v1
codex mcp login kantaxThe second command opens Kantax in your browser to log in and approve.
Cursor
Add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (or Settings → MCP → Add new MCP server):
{
"mcpServers": {
"kantax": { "url": "https://kantax.no/api/mcp/v1" }
}
}Cursor asks you to log in the first time Kantax is used.
Receipts from the chat or your computer
Ask the assistant to add the receipt. It finds the way itself.
In Claude Code, Cursor, Codex and Claude Desktop the assistant reads the file on your computer and uploads it itself — just say where it is. In claude.ai and ChatGPT it can't pick up files you attach in the chat, so it gives you an upload link valid for 30 minutes: drop the receipts there, say so, and it books them. Receipts that are online, like a link in an email, it fetches itself.
You decide what it can do
You choose the access level when you approve the connection, and can change it by reconnecting.
Read only
See accounts, reports and receipts. Cannot change anything.
Read and draft
Also: upload and book receipts, book expenses, draft invoices, record payments, maintain customers, suppliers, products and projects, and set up the company (logo, notifications, and the bank account while none is saved).
Full access — coming later
Issuing invoices and filing VAT and payroll reports with Altinn. Those cannot be undone, so each filing gets its own approval step.
Everything an AI assistant does is recorded in the audit log, tagged with the connection that did it. Review and revoke connections under Settings → AI connections.
Things you can ask for
- “Book the receipts sitting in the inbox.”
- “Which invoices are overdue, and who owes the most?”
- “Log this receipt as office supplies.”
- “Draft an invoice to Acme AS for 20 hours of consulting.”
- “What have we spent on software this year?”
