Query and update Exact Online with AI
Connect Exact Online to Claude, ChatGPT or any MCP client. Ask about invoices, receivables and the ledger across every administration, and let your AI book entries and update records.
7 invoices are more than 60 days overdue, €41,200 in total, across 3 administrations. The largest:
| Customer | Administration | Days | Open |
|---|---|---|---|
| Acme BV | Holding NL | 73 | €18,500 |
| DataCorp NV | Services BE | 68 | €12,100 |
| WidgetCo BV | Holding NL | 62 | €6,200 |
I'll create a draft sales invoice for Acme BV: 8 hours of support at €95, €760 before VAT. Shall I go ahead?
Getting answers out of Exact Online is slower than it should be
Exact Online holds your financial data. Every quick question still means menus, exports and spreadsheets.
Every question means an export
"Show overdue invoices over €5,000" turns into filters, a CSV and a pivot table.
The API has tight limits
Exact Online caps API calls at 60 a minute and 5,000 a day per administration. Big questions run out fast.
Group reports depend on your plan
Exact's reports across administrations come with Exact Online Boekhouden Premium. Without it, you combine figures by hand.
Many MCP options stay narrow
Most Exact Online MCP servers call the live API for every question and only see Exact Online.
One MCP server. Read, write and join across 300+ apps.
Peliqan syncs Exact Online into its built-in data warehouse and gives your AI one MCP server.
Ask, then act
Ask about invoices, receivables and the ledger. Then book sales and purchase entries, create invoices or update customers.
Most questions run as SQL
Most questions run on the synced copy in Peliqan's Postgres data warehouse, so they don't use up Exact's API limits. A few live lookups call the API.
Every administration at once
One connection covers every administration your Exact user can access, so one question can cover the whole group.
Exact plus the rest
Join Exact Online with Teamleader, HubSpot, AFAS or your webshop in one question.
What your AI can read and write
Exact Online is synced with its full history. These are the main areas.
| Area | Your AI can read | Your AI can write |
|---|---|---|

| Sales | Sales invoices, orders, quotations, subscriptions, opportunities | Create and update sales invoices |
| Purchase | Purchase invoices, orders, goods receipts | Create and update purchase invoices |

What finance teams do with Exact Online MCP
Four example questions. Each one is a single prompt.
Who owes you, across the group
Double bookings, found
Checks before you close
A draft invoice from one message
A synced copy for questions, the API for changes
-
Most questions don't touch the live API
Your AI's questions run as SQL on the copy in Peliqan's data warehouse, across years of data and every administration.
-
Changes go back through writeback
By default, your AI asks you before it books an entry or updates a record. Peliqan then sends the change to Exact Online's API, within your own Exact access rights.
-
Synced every 6 hours by default
Syncing more often uses more of Exact's daily API limit. A change your AI makes can take until the next sync to show up in its answers. Tables you need fresher can run on their own, tighter schedule.
Set up in three steps
No API keys to copy and nothing to install in Exact Online.
Connect Exact Online
Sign in with your Exact user and pick the administrations to sync. Each Exact user is a separate connection. Exact allows one connection per user and app, so a dedicated user works best. See the Exact Online setup guide.
Add Peliqan to your AI
Add https://mcp.peliqan.io/mcp as a custom connector in Claude, ChatGPT or Gemini, then sign in to Peliqan.
Ask your first question
For example: "What is our revenue this quarter compared to the same quarter last year, per administration?"
Peliqan vs other Exact Online MCP options
Exact has no MCP server of its own. The main options, from each vendor's public pages in October 2026.
