What your AI agent can do

Compliance checks where the work already happens.

Questions

Good to know

What is an AI connector (MCP)?

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an open standard that lets AI agents use outside tools. Once the eClear connector is added, your agent can call eClear checks by itself when you ask a VAT or customs question.

Do I need developers to set it up?

No. You add a link in your AI agent's settings and sign in. Connecting your shop or ERP data for VAT returns comes later and is optional.

What does the pilot cost?

We'll share pilot terms with selected teams before the start. Pilot members get early access and help decide what we build next.

Which countries are covered?

VAT ID checks cover the EU member states. VAT rates cover the EU27, the UK and Switzerland. Customs classification covers the EU (TARIC) and Switzerland (TARES).
