An account your agent can actually use.

With Moneda MCP, a REST API and a command line, your agent works with your real account: balances, spending, receipts and payments you approve.

Your Moneda account from your own code, your terminal or your AI agent, with the permissions you set.

three ways in, one account

## MCP

Moneda MCP is our connector for AI assistants like Claude and ChatGPT, built on the Model Context Protocol they already speak. Connect once and your agent can read balances, search transactions, break down spending, file receipts and prepare payments, all within the scopes you granted. Moneda AI's market research stays in the app.

## REST API

Bring the same capabilities to anything that speaks HTTP: a backend job, a dashboard, a bot. Reuse the OAuth token from your MCP connection, or use an API key for scripts. Start in a sandbox that answers with mock data, build from the published OpenAPI description, then switch to a real account.

## Command line

Install @moneda/cli and moneda is on your path: check a balance, list transactions or start a payment without writing a script. It is also a quick way to see what the API returns before you build against it.

## Your finances, automated your way

### Agents that act

Give Claude or ChatGPT a real account to work with, so it answers from actual balances and prepares real payments for you to approve, instead of explaining how one would.

### Payments you can trust

Your agent prepares the payment, you get a push notification and approve it in the Moneda app with your passkey, and your agent picks up the result. Nothing moves until you approve it.

### Back-office automation

Reconcile transactions, categorise spending and add notes from a backend job on an API key, no browser needed. Keys carry no payment scopes, so you can hand one to a job knowing it can never move money.

### Always in step

New features in the app come to the API, MCP and CLI too, so what you build keeps up with the app.

## Access you control

MCP, the REST API and the CLI come included with Premium and Ultra.

### OAuth with PKCE

Your agent gets a scoped token and never sees a password.

### Permissions you set

Choose what each agent can see and do, and nothing more.

### Payments you approve

You approve payments with your passkey in the Moneda app.

### You stay in control

See every connected agent in the app and switch any of them off.

## Building for a business?

Moneda Platform serves our research agent as an API. It is a separate product with its own keys, and it never touches a Moneda account.

Bring Your Agent Use a Real Account

Open an account, connect it to the AI tools you already use, and give them exactly the access you want. Nothing happens outside what you have approved.
