Before you connect

The login page asks for your Client name and API key.

Create the API key in Run my Accounts (API key page). The client name is your client (Mandant) name. The server only reads data. Your key is used only to call the API on your behalf and to derive a private account id.

Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your Client name and API key. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.

Example prompts

Turn on the Run my Accounts connector, then ask in plain words. The AI picks the tools.

runmyaccounts_request_featuremeta
Request a missing feature
Tell usefulapi that the user needs something the Run my Accounts tools cannot do yet (a missing tool, field or filter). Call it only when the user asks for something none of the tools can do, and tell the user that you send the request. Do not call it for errors or for normal requests. Do not include personal data, credentials or customer records. Stored with the product name and the client type (for example Claude or Cursor), without the user's account. At most 5 requests per day. Does not count against the meter.

Cancel any time: Pro then runs to the end of the paid period, so it also suits a one-time job. *A fair use limit applies. For heavy use (near Pro's limit): "plus" or "plus_yearly" — Pro+, $39/month or $390/year, unlimited tool calls (fair use limit: 100,000 a month); an existing Pro subscription changes to Pro+ in place (needs confirm: true; the price difference for the rest of the period is charged at once).

FAQ

What can I do with Run my Accounts in Claude or ChatGPT?

Find overdue customer invoices. List the open vendor bills. Read the trial balance for a period. Review the transactions of one account. Match incoming payments to invoices. See what you can do for the details.

Is this an official Run my Accounts product?

No. usefulapi is an independent service. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by Run my Accounts. The server calls the Run my Accounts API with your own Run my Accounts access, so it sees only the data that your account can see.

Can I connect Run my Accounts to Claude or ChatGPT?

Yes. In Claude, add this server's URL as a custom connector. In ChatGPT, add it as a custom MCP server in Plugins. Then log in once. Cursor, VS Code, Claude Code and Codex work too. See the setup steps.

What do I need to connect?

The login page asks for your Client name and API key. See Before you connect for where to find them.

Do I put my Run my Accounts key or an Authorization header in the client config?

No. Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your Client name and API key. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.

How do you keep my Run my Accounts credentials?

The login stores them encrypted in the authorization grant of your connection. The server uses them to call the Run my Accounts API for you and to derive a private account id for usage metering. usefulapi does not show them on any page or in any reply. To stop all access, remove the connector and change or delete these credentials in Run my Accounts.

Can the AI change my Run my Accounts data?

All 16 Run my Accounts tools are marked read-only.

What does it cost?

The Free plan gives 50 tool calls / month. Pro costs $9/mo or $90/yr, with unlimited tool calls (fair use limit: 10,000 tool calls a month), for this Run my Accounts server only. Cancel any time: Pro then runs to the end of the paid period. Run runmyaccounts_usage_status to see how many calls you used.

How do I subscribe or cancel?

Ask the AI to run runmyaccounts_upgrade: it returns a Stripe Checkout link. To cancel, run runmyaccounts_cancel_subscription. Pro continues to the end of the paid period.

What if a Run my Accounts tool that I need is missing?

Tell the AI what you wanted to do. It can send the request with runmyaccounts_request_feature. We store the text with the server name, the type of AI client and the tool you tried, not with your account, and read every request when we plan new tools. You can send up to 5 requests per day.

Which AI clients can I use?

Any client that supports remote MCP servers (Streamable HTTP) with OAuth login: Claude (web and desktop), Claude Code, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf and others.

This is a Model Context Protocol endpoint — meant to be connected from an AI client, not opened in a browser. An invalid_token response at the URL is the auth gate working as designed; clients authenticate automatically.
