In Claude, go to Customize > Connectors, click + and Add custom connector, and enter https://api.workzen.io/mcp. Sign in to WorkZen when asked and click Allow. Claude can then read your clients, jobs, visits and invoices and add new leads, with the same access your WorkZen account has.

If someone is deactivated in WorkZen, their Claude connection stops working right away.

Try these questions
