Apideck MCP

One unified API and MCP layer that gives AI agents permissioned, read-write access to 200+ business apps across Accounting, CRM, HRIS, and ATS.

Try It

Verdict

Apideck MCP is built for teams that want one AI agent to touch their whole SaaS stack without hand-coding a connector for every service. If you are shipping agent workflows that need to read and write across QuickBooks, Xero, NetSuite, Workday, and a CRM in the same session, this saves months of integration work and normalizes the data models for you. It is a serious infrastructure play, not a hobbyist tool, and the pay-as-you-go pricing means costs scale with your usage rather than a flat seat fee.

Pricing

Apideck runs a usage-based model. There is no published per-seat tier, so real cost depends on request volume.

Key Features

hub

Unified API across 200+ apps

One normalized data model spanning Accounting, CRM, HRIS, and ATS categories, including 40+ accounting platforms alone.

smart_toy

MCP layer for agents

Gives AI agents permissioned access to read and write across your stack through the Model Context Protocol.

bolt

Real-time data processing

Data flows live rather than on a batch schedule, which matters for agent decisions that act on current state.

shield

Zero data retention

A zero data retention policy means Apideck does not store the payloads passing through it, a meaningful point for compliance reviews.

vpn_key

OAuth and token management

Handles the authentication grind for each connected service so you are not building token refresh logic per vendor.

extension

Broad connector library

Prebuilt connectors for QuickBooks, Xero, NetSuite, Sage Intacct, Workday, Zoho Books, Oracle Fusion Cloud, and more.

Who Should Use This

Apideck is aimed at SaaS teams and developers building products or agents that need to plug into their customers' business tools. The MCP angle makes it especially relevant if you are moving from static integrations toward agent-driven automation.

Business lending, pulling normalized financials fast

Accounts receivable and bank feeds automation

Expense management across accounting platforms

Payroll accounting and tax automation

Limitations

Request caps on the free trial. The 30-day trial is limited enough that you cannot fully load-test a production workload before committing.
Enterprise setup for custom work. Anything beyond the prebuilt connectors pushes you into an enterprise conversation, which adds time and likely cost.
Third-party dependency. Your reliability is only as good as the underlying vendor APIs. When QuickBooks or Workday has an outage or a schema change, that flows through to you, even with a normalized layer in front.
