Connect your AI assistant to Kantex Retail via MCP

Frequently asked questions

Questions about AI and MCP

What is an MCP connection?

With the Model Context Protocol you connect Claude, ChatGPT or your own AI agent to Kantex. You decide which data and actions are allowed.

Which AI clients can I connect?

Claude Desktop, Claude.ai via a custom connector, ChatGPT via connectors (where available on your plan) and any other MCP client, such as Cursor or VS Code, or your own agent.

Can the AI assistant change anything by itself?

Not without you. Tools that change something only prepare a draft. It only goes through once you confirm it in Kantex.

How do I sign in and who decides the permissions?

You sign in with your Kantex account (OAuth) or with a token with limited permissions. For each token you choose the business lines, locations and permissions, and revoking takes effect immediately.

Where is my data stored?

The MCP server runs in the EU and your data stays in the EU. Every question and action is recorded in your audit log.

What does the MCP connection cost?

MCP is part of the AI agent & MCP connection module. You can try it free for 14 days and then add it for €19 per month, if it is not already included in your plan.
