What can I ask?

Turn on the Autumn connector, then ask in plain words. The AI picks the tools.

What you can do with Autumn in Claude and ChatGPT

For SaaS teams who bill customers with Autumn plans, features and usage balances.

List customers and the plan each one is on

The AI lists your customers and expands their subscriptions, so you see who has an active subscription and which plan each customer is on.

Check if a customer can use a feature

The AI checks a customer's access and balance for one feature, for example whether Acme still has credits left. This check does not record any usage.

Compare your plans and the features they include

The AI lists all plans and features in your environment and opens a single plan, so you get a clear comparison of what each plan includes.

Review recent invoices and who they went to

The AI lists invoices with their filters and looks at the customers behind them, so you can summarize what was issued recently.

Preview a plan change, then attach the plan

The AI first previews the cost and effect of attaching a plan to a customer without charging. After you confirm, it attaches the plan, which may create an invoice or return a payment URL.

How do I connect Autumn?

Before you connect

The login page asks for your Autumn API key.

Find it in the Autumn dashboard → Developer → API keys (looks like am_sk_live_… / am_sk_test_…). 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.

    https://autumn.usefulapi.io/mcp
  3. ChatGPT opens the login page: enter your Autumn API key.
  4. In Plugins, install Autumn, then choose it in a chat.

No Add custom MCP server option? It depends on your account or workspace settings: see OpenAI's guide.

Claude Code

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

claude mcp add --transport http autumn https://autumn.usefulapi.io/mcp

Cursor

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "autumn": {
      "url": "https://autumn.usefulapi.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

VS Code

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

{
  "servers": {
    "autumn": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://autumn.usefulapi.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Codex

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

codex mcp add autumn --url https://autumn.usefulapi.io/mcp
codex mcp login autumn

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://autumn.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 Autumn 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.

PlanPriceLimit
Free$050 tool calls / month
Pro$9/mo · $90/yr10,000 tool calls / month
Pro+$39/mo · $390/yr100,000 tool calls / month

Each paid plan covers this Autumn server only. Ask your AI to run autumn_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 autumn_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 autumn_upgrade before then undoes the cancel. Or write to [email protected].

Your usefulapi plan · 4

  • Usage status (free-tier meter)autumn_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 featureautumn_request_feature
    Tell usefulapi that the user needs something the Autumn 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+autumn_upgrade
    Get a paid plan for Autumn (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 subscriptionautumn_cancel_subscription
    Cancel the caller's Autumn 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 autumn_upgrade later to undo the cancel before the period ends. Does not count against the meter.

FAQ

What can I do with Autumn in Claude or ChatGPT?

List customers and the plan each one is on. Check if a customer can use a feature. Compare your plans and the features they include. Review recent invoices and who they went to. Preview a plan change, then attach the plan. See what you can do for the details.

Is this an official Autumn product?

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

Can I connect Autumn 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 Autumn API key. See Before you connect for where to find it.

Do I put my Autumn 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 Autumn 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 Autumn credentials?

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

Can the AI change my Autumn data?

Yes, if you approve it. 6 of the 18 Autumn tools can create or change data. The other 12 are marked read-only. Most MCP clients ask you to approve a tool call before it runs.

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 Autumn server only. Cancel any time: your paid plan then runs to the end of the paid period. Run autumn_usage_status to see how many calls you used.

How do I subscribe or cancel?

Ask the AI to run autumn_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 autumn_cancel_subscription. Your paid plan continues to the end of the paid period.

What if a Autumn tool that I need is missing?

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