Connect Claude or ChatGPT to your business in 2 minutes with Aura

What is this and why does it matter?

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is the open standard that AI labs created so attendees can use external tools safely. Claude supports it natively, and the ChatGPT app ecosystem is built on the same protocol. When a system "talks MCP", any assistant can operate it.

Aura now exposes an official MCP connector. That means that the AI ​​that you already use every day stops being a generic advisor and becomes an operator of your business: it responds with your real numbers and executes actions that are recorded in your system, with permissions and auditing.

What your assistant can do connected to Aura

The connector starts with a curated catalog of 18 tools:

• Consult: summary of sales by period, orders and their details, products and their inventory, low stock alerts, best-selling products, customers, leads and CRM opportunities, calendar agenda, team tasks, quotes, purchase orders to suppliers and the status of the omnichannel inbox.
• Execute (safe actions): register a lead in the CRM, create a task for the team and schedule an event on the calendar.
• Money actions (collect, invoice, refund) arrive in the next version with explicit confirmation — by design: your assistant never moves money without your approval.

Tutorial: connect it in 2 minutes

You don't need to know anything technical. Just two steps:

• Step 1 — Create your key: In Aura go to Settings → API keys and generate a new key with the “mcp:read” (query only) or “mcp:write” (query + actions) permission. Copy it.
• Step 2 — In Claude: open claude.ai → Settings → Connectors → "Add custom connector". Paste the URL https://aura.cownnection.com/api/v1/mcp and your key as authentication. Ready.
• Test: ask "how much have I sold this week and what product moved the most?" — the answer comes from your real database, not your imagination.

Security: how we protect your business

• The key is yours and by organization: you revoke it whenever you want from Aura and the assistant loses access instantly.
• Granular permissions: A read-only key will never be able to write anything, even if the wizard tries to.
• Usage limit per key and log of each call — you know exactly what your assistant consulted and when.
• True multi-tenant: the key only sees data from YOUR organization. It's the same permissions architecture that all of Aura uses.

This is just the beginning

The connector is the door for the AI ​​of your choice to operate your business from where you live: your chat. The next versions add quote and charge with confirmation, publishing on social networks and executive reports on demand. And if you live within Aura, remember that Aura Pilot already does all this and more, natively.
