# How to connect Housecall Pro to Claude Code, ChatGPT and any AI agent

**Yes, Claude, ChatGPT and other AI agents can work in your Housecall Pro account.** Housecall Pro's API is only on the MAX plan and needs a developer. Cotlet.dev connects your own Housecall Pro account to any AI agent on any plan, so the AI schedules jobs and sends invoices when you ask in plain words.

## What you can ask

> New job for Tom Baker at 22 Pine St: AC service, book Luis for Monday 9 am.

> Which invoices are unpaid for more than 30 days? Total them per customer.

> Send the estimate for job 1042 to the customer and remind them in 3 days.

> What is on tomorrow's schedule per technician?

> Turn today's finished jobs into invoices. Show me before sending.

## Questions from Housecall Pro users

**Does Housecall Pro have an API?**

Housecall Pro has a public API only on the MAX plan, for admins with a developer. Cotlet.dev works in your Housecall Pro account on any plan, with no code.

**Is there a Housecall Pro ChatGPT integration on GitHub?**

This repo is it: a ready connection of Housecall Pro to ChatGPT, Claude and any AI agent through Cotlet.dev.

**How do I connect Housecall Pro to ChatGPT?**

Add Cotlet.dev as an app in ChatGPT (Settings → Apps, connector URL `https://cotlet.dev/mcp/v1`), sign in to Housecall Pro once in your Cotlet.dev Cloud Browser, and ask ChatGPT in plain words. No code and no Housecall Pro API key.

**Is there a way to use Claude with Housecall Pro?**

Yes. In Claude Code run the one-line `claude mcp add` command above; in the Claude app add `https://cotlet.dev/mcp/v1` as a custom connector. Claude then works in your own Housecall Pro account.

**Is there a Housecall Pro MCP server?**

Housecall Pro has no official MCP server. Cotlet.dev is a hosted MCP server that works in Housecall Pro for you, 24/7, with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Codex, n8n, Make and Zapier.
