Query and update Odoo with AI
Connect Odoo to Claude, ChatGPT, or any MCP client through Peliqan. Ask questions in plain English, get answers from a SOC 2 Type II warehouse, and write updates back to Odoo – no XML-RPC scripting, no module installs in production, no read-only compromises.
Pulling answers out of Odoo still takes too many clicks
Odoo runs your sales, accounting, inventory, and HR all in one place – but every quick question means logging in, switching modules, exporting reports, and pasting numbers into spreadsheets. Operations, finance, and CRM teams lose hours on questions Claude could answer in seconds.
Existing Odoo MCPs hit the live API
Open-source MCP repos go straight to Odoo XML-RPC - heavy queries can lock production and slow your team's CRM, ecommerce, and POS
Odoo's official MCP module costs and clutters production
Odoo's paid mcp_server module needs installation in your live database, plus per-user API key management - extra weight for what should be a simple AI integration
No cross-source joins
Combining Odoo with HubSpot, Exact Online, Google Ads, or Shopify means custom Python scripts and a separate warehouse
DIY MCP servers need ops work per database
GitHub repos require local Python, UV install, env vars, ngrok tunnels, and per-database API keys - fine for a single instance, painful for multi-company or partner setups

- The solution
One MCP server. Read, write, and join across 250+ sources.
Peliqan syncs your Odoo data into a built-in Postgres warehouse, exposes it via MCP for instant AI access, and routes writebacks through Peliqan’s connector layer so your live Odoo instance stays protected from rate limits and unsafe writes.
Full read + write through MCP
Where most open-source Odoo MCPs are read-heavy with risky writes, Peliqan supports full writeback. Create quotes, post invoices, update CRM stages, manage stock, log timesheets - all from Claude, ChatGPT, or n8n. The only Odoo MCP with a cached warehouse and audited writebacks.
Cached warehouse, never the live API
Your AI queries a Postgres warehouse, not Odoo XML-RPC directly. No production locks, no slowdowns during ecommerce peaks or month-end close. Sync runs incrementally on your schedule (every 15 minutes by default).
Cross-source queries in one SQL statement
Join Odoo sales orders with HubSpot deals, Exact Online accounting, Google Ads spend, or Shopify orders in a single query. Federated via Trino, all in Peliqan's shared warehouse.
SQL + RAG on quotations and attachments
Combine structured SQL queries with semantic search across quotation PDFs, contract attachments, mail.message threads, and free-text fields. The only MCP that answers questions about both your Odoo data and your documents.
Open pipeline: €487,200 across 32 opportunities. Weighted forecast: €198,400.

- How it works
Always-fresh copy, never the live API
Peliqan keeps a working copy of your Odoo data in a Postgres warehouse, refreshed on your schedule. AI queries the warehouse for speed and safety. When AI needs to make a change, Peliqan routes the writeback through its connector layer – never letting AI hit the live Odoo XML-RPC API directly.
AI never hits the Odoo API directly
All queries route through Peliqan's warehouse. Writebacks route through Peliqan's connector. Your live Odoo instance never sees a raw AI request.
No production locks or slowdowns
Heavy AI workloads don't compete with your CRM, ecommerce, or POS for Odoo XML-RPC throughput. The warehouse absorbs query load - even during peak ecommerce or month-end close.
Always fresh, on your schedule
Incremental syncs run as often as every 5 minutes. You decide the cadence based on how fresh your sales, finance, or operations team needs the data.
Full data, every record
Every Odoo model, every record, every database. Ready for cross-source joins, Text-to-SQL, and RAG on attached PDFs and chatter threads.
- Setup guide
How to set up the Odoo MCP server
1
Connect Odoo in Peliqan
Click the Odoo connector in Peliqan and enter your URL, database name, and API key (or username + password). Works with Odoo Online, Odoo.sh, and self-hosted – Community or Enterprise, versions 15-19. Setup guide →
2
Select and materialize tables
Choose which Odoo models to sync – sale.order, crm.lead, account.move, stock.quant, project.task, hr.employee. Peliqan materializes them into Postgres on your schedule (default: every 15 minutes). Stay well clear of Odoo XML-RPC bottlenecks. Materializing tables →
3
Create your MCP API handler
Use Peliqan’s built-in MCP template to expose the Odoo models and operations your AI agents need. Set role-based permissions for read, write, or both – column-level masking for sensitive fields like partner emails or HR salaries supported. AI agents docs →
4
Connect Claude or ChatGPT
Run pip install mcp-server-peliqan, add your Peliqan API credentials, and start querying Odoo with natural language. Open source on GitHub.

- FAQ
Odoo MCP, answered
What is the Odoo MCP server?
The Odoo MCP server is a Model Context Protocol endpoint that exposes your Odoo ERP data to AI agents like Claude, ChatGPT, and Cursor. Peliqan’s Odoo MCP server lets AI query CRM, sales, accounting, inventory, and HR models in plain English, and write updates back to Odoo – without writing XML-RPC integration code or installing modules in production.
How do I connect Odoo to Claude or ChatGPT?
Authenticate Odoo in Peliqan with your URL, database name, and API key (or username + password), pick the models to sync, and add the Peliqan MCP endpoint to Claude Desktop, ChatGPT, Cursor, or n8n. Most teams go from Odoo authentication to first AI query in under 30 minutes. Full setup steps are in the guide above.
Does it work with Odoo Community and Enterprise?
Yes. Peliqan works with Odoo Community and Odoo Enterprise across versions 15-19. The connector talks to Odoo’s standard external API (XML-RPC and JSON-RPC), so it doesn’t require any Odoo Enterprise-only modules. It also works on Odoo Online, Odoo.sh, and self-hosted deployments.
Do I need to install an Odoo module to use this MCP?
No. Unlike Odoo’s own paid mcp_server App Store module, Peliqan doesn’t require any module install in your live Odoo database. Authentication uses Odoo’s standard external API key system. Your production instance stays exactly as it is.
Will AI queries lock my live Odoo instance?
No. Peliqan caches your Odoo data in a built-in Postgres warehouse and AI queries hit the cache, not Odoo XML-RPC directly. Your CRM, ecommerce, POS, and ERP users never compete with AI for production throughput. This is a key difference from open-source MCPs like ivnvxd/mcp-server-odoo, which go straight to the live API. Sync runs incrementally on your schedule (every 15 minutes by default).
Does the Odoo MCP support writeback, or is it read-only?
Peliqan supports both read and write. Your AI agent can query Odoo data and also create quotes, post invoices, update CRM stages, manage stock, log timesheets, and trigger other Odoo external API actions, with full audit logging. Writebacks route through Peliqan’s connector layer for safety – so AI can never accidentally lock your live database with malformed write calls.
Does it handle multi-company and multi-database Odoo setups?
Yes. Peliqan handles multi-company and multi-database Odoo automatically. One Peliqan workspace can sync several Odoo databases and your AI agent can query across them – perfect for Odoo partners running implementations for multiple clients, or groups with separate Odoo databases per company. No per-database API key juggling, no module reinstalls.
Is Odoo data secure with AI agents?
Peliqan is EU-hosted, SOC 2 Type II certified, and GDPR-compliant. Row-level and column-level access control let you mask or exclude sensitive fields (partner emails, HR salaries, payment details) from AI agents while still allowing operational queries. Every AI query and writeback is logged with full audit trail.
Do I need a data warehouse to use Odoo MCP?
No. Peliqan includes a built-in Postgres + Trino warehouse. Your Odoo data lands there automatically – no Snowflake, BigQuery, or dbt project required. If you already have a warehouse, Peliqan can sync to it as well, so your existing BI dashboards and reporting stay intact.
