# Bound — AI Connector Bound publishes 10 MCP tools to Claude. Marketplace availability, tool surface, verification tier, and what Node8 measured against the live endpoint. Source: https://node8.ai/ai-connectors/finance/bound/ --- [AI Connectors](https://node8.ai/ai-connectors/) · [Finance](https://node8.ai/ai-connectors/finance/) # Bound Read-only view of Bound balances, payments, and FX orders Listed in Claude · 10 published tools · Community-listed [Claude connector docs](https://bound.co/) [bound.co](https://bound.co/) Overview ## What Bound does Bound handles currency exposure and cross-border payments. This connector reads the public API and nothing more: account balances, saved payment recipients, payments themselves, FX orders, indicative exchange rates, and settlements still to come. The publisher is explicit that the tools are read-only, so the connector inspects treasury state rather than initiating a transfer or placing an order. Ten tools are published at community tier, with an endpoint URL and documentation available. ### Who it is for Treasury and finance operations staff monitoring FX and settlement positions. ### Tool surface Ten tools are claimed and the endpoint will not name them without a Bound key, so the read-only characterisation rests entirely on the publisher's description. Availability ## Where Bound is listed Bound is listed in the Claude connectors directory only. Bound has no app under the same domain in the ChatGPT directory; 392 of the 3,150 products here are on both marketplaces, and this is not one of them. The MCP server behind a Claude connector is usually the same server a ChatGPT app would need, so the absence is a distribution decision rather than a technical one. Claude listing ## In the Claude connectors directory Bound publishes 10 tools to Claude. That is a mid-sized surface: 45% of the 1,253 Claude-listed connectors expose fewer. The median Claude-listed connector filed under Finance publishes 12, so this one sits 2 tools below its bucket's median, 87th of 159. It falls in the 7-10 tools band, which holds 14.6% of the Claude directory. Bound publishes a remote MCP endpoint. Claude connects to it over HTTP; there is nothing to install locally. Every connector in the Claude directory is remote, all 1,253 of them, so transport is not a differentiator there. Publisher Bound Verification Community-listed (61.5% of the Claude directory) Filed under Financial Services Endpoint `https://mcp.bound.co/mcp` Documentation [Publisher setup docs](https://bound.co/) Published tools 10 · 7-10 tools band Depth rank in Finance 87 of 159 Snapshot August 2026 Bound is community-listed in the Claude directory, the tier 770 of 1,253 connectors sit in (61.5%). It is the default for a self-published server, and says nothing either way about quality. In the publisher's words ## How Bound describes it > Bound MCP helps users inspect Bound account balances, payment recipients, payments, FX orders, indicative exchange rates, and upcoming settlements through read-only Public API tools.
