Bring your own AI
Connect ChatGPT or Claude to your HR system
Yes, you can. Peoplo.ai works with any MCP client, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code and ChatGPT. Each person connects with their own API key, and the assistant sees and does only what their role allows. Ask about leave, holidays or approvals in plain words. Big actions, such as running payroll, need an explicit yes.
In plain words
What is MCP?
MCP, the Model Context Protocol, is an open standard that lets an AI assistant use other software. Think of it as a plug: your assistant connects to Peoplo.ai and can look things up there for you, instead of you copying data into a chat.
Ask in plain words
What you can ask
Examples by role. What the assistant can answer depends on what your role can see in Peoplo.ai.
Employee
“How many leave days do I have left this year?”
Employee
“When is the next public holiday?”
Employee
“Show me my latest payslip.”
Manager
“Who on my team is on leave next week?”
Manager
“Which leave requests are waiting for me?”
HR
“Which expense claims are waiting for approval?”
What stays private
Your permissions, nothing more
Same role as in the app
The assistant can see and do only what your own role allows. An employee’s assistant sees that employee’s data; a manager’s sees what the manager sees in Peoplo.ai.
Never available to AI
- The password vault
- Privacy tools
- Billing
- Hiring candidates and offers
Changes and approvals
The assistant asks before it acts
Big actions, such as running payroll or changing a salary, need an explicit yes. Changes to pay, tax, people records and money always wait for a person. Changes made through an assistant go through Peoplo.ai under your name, so they are written to the audit log like changes in the app: who did what, and when.
Your key, your control
Connect in three steps
-
Step 1
Create your API key
In Peoplo.ai, open My profile and create a personal API key. It is shown once, so copy it somewhere safe.
-
Step 2
Add Peoplo.ai to your assistant
In Claude Desktop or Claude Code, add Peoplo.ai as an MCP server with your key. In ChatGPT or claude.ai, add it as a custom connector.
-
Step 3
Ask in plain words
Ask about leave, holidays, your team or approvals. The assistant fetches the answer from Peoplo.ai, limited to your role.
You can revoke your key at any time and see when it was last used. When someone leaves and their exit is completed, their sign-in and API keys are turned off.
Prefer the built-in assistant? Kili answers questions on every page of Peoplo.ai and prepares changes for you to confirm. New to the term? See MCP in the glossary.
