How do I connect Zero Plus One?

Before you connect

The login page asks for your Zero Plus One API key.

Create the key in Zero Plus One → Settings → Developer. Tick only the scopes you need: View invoices, View customers & suppliers, View financial reports and View reconciliation suggestions. Your key is used only to call the API on your behalf and to derive a private account id; it is never shown to anyone.

Claude Code

Run this command, then run /mcp in Claude Code to log in:

claude mcp add --transport http zero-plus-one https://zero-plus-one.usefulapi.io/mcp

Cursor

Add to Cursor or add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "zero-plus-one": {
      "url": "https://zero-plus-one.usefulapi.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Add to VS Code or add this to .vscode/mcp.json:

{
  "servers": {
    "zero-plus-one": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://zero-plus-one.usefulapi.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Codex

Run these commands. The second one opens the login page:

codex mcp add zero-plus-one --url https://zero-plus-one.usefulapi.io/mcp
codex mcp login zero-plus-one

Other clients

Windsurf, Cline, Zed and other MCP clients: add this URL as a remote MCP server (Streamable HTTP). The client then opens the login page in your browser.

https://zero-plus-one.usefulapi.io/mcp

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 Zero Plus One 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.

Each paid plan covers this Zero Plus One server only. Ask your AI to run zeroplusone_upgrade and choose Pro or Pro+, billed monthly or yearly (it returns a Stripe Checkout link). If you already have Pro, ask to change it to Pro+. The change requires your confirmation, keeps your billing interval and charges the price difference for the rest of the period immediately. Cancel any time with zeroplusone_cancel_subscription: your paid plan continues to the end of the paid period, with no refund for the current period, and asking to resume the same plan with zeroplusone_upgrade before then undoes the cancel. Or write to [email protected].

Your usefulapi plan · 4

  • Usage status (free-tier meter)zeroplusone_usage_status
    Report the caller's current usage: the plan, calls used this month, the limit of the plan (the free monthly cap or the Pro fair use limit), remaining, and whether the limit is reached. Read-only; does not count against the meter.
  • Request a missing featurezeroplusone_request_feature
    Tell usefulapi that the user needs something the Zero Plus One 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.
  • Upgrade to Pro or Pro+zeroplusone_upgrade
    Get a paid plan for Zero Plus One (the free tier caps monthly usage). Pro: 10,000 tool calls a month, for normal use — plan "monthly" ($9/month) or "yearly" ($90/year, 2 months free). Pro+: 100,000 tool calls a month, for automations and heavy use — plan "plus" ($39/month) or "plus_yearly" ($390/year). Without a plan it returns both Pro and Pro+, each with a payment link, for the user to choose; with a plan, one link. 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). Cancel any time: the plan then runs to the end of the paid period, so it also suits a one-time job. A link opens Stripe Checkout in the browser; after payment the account upgrades automatically. Does not count against the meter.
  • Cancel the Pro subscriptionzeroplusone_cancel_subscription
    Cancel the caller's Zero Plus One Pro subscription at the end of the paid period (no refund for the current period; Pro continues until then, then the free tier applies). Requires confirm: true. Run zeroplusone_upgrade later to undo the cancel before the period ends. Does not count against the meter.

FAQ

What can I do with Zero Plus One in Claude or ChatGPT?

Chase invoices that are still open. Review profit, cash flow and the balance sheet. Check the VAT 201 figures against the tax rates. Find bank lines that still need reconciling. Look up a customer or supplier record. See what you can do for the details.

Is this an official Zero Plus One product?

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

Can I connect Zero Plus One 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 Zero Plus One API key. See Before you connect for where to find it.

Do I put my Zero Plus One 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 Zero Plus One 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 Zero Plus One credentials?

The login stores them encrypted in the authorization grant of your connection. The server uses them to call the Zero Plus One 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 Zero Plus One.

Can the AI change my Zero Plus One data?

All 24 Zero Plus One 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 10,000 tool calls / month. Pro+ costs $39/mo or $390/yr, with 100,000 tool calls / month. Each subscription covers this Zero Plus One server only. Cancel any time: your paid plan then runs to the end of the paid period. Run zeroplusone_usage_status to see how many calls you used.

How do I subscribe or cancel?

Ask the AI to run zeroplusone_upgrade and choose Pro or Pro+, billed monthly or yearly: it returns a Stripe Checkout link. If you already have Pro, ask to change it to Pro+. After you confirm, your existing subscription changes in place, keeps its billing interval and charges the price difference for the rest of the period immediately. To cancel, run zeroplusone_cancel_subscription. Your paid plan continues to the end of the paid period.

What if a Zero Plus One tool that I need is missing?

Tell the AI what you wanted to do. It can send the request with zeroplusone_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.
