# Cortena FinOps — AI Connector Cortena FinOps publishes 18 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/cortena-finops/ --- [AI Connectors](https://node8.ai/ai-connectors/) · [Finance](https://node8.ai/ai-connectors/finance/) # Cortena FinOps Payables, approvals and invoice status from a Cortena workspace Listed in Claude · 18 published tools · Community-listed [Claude connector docs](https://help.cortena.ai/) [cortena.ai](https://cortena.ai/) Overview ## What Cortena FinOps does Cortena is a finance operating system for smaller finance teams, with agents that run payables pre-accounting against the accounting system. This connector reaches that live data and inherits the same permissions the web app applies, so a connection cannot see more than its user could. The questions it is built for are narrow and practical: which invoices need approval, which payables are overdue this week. Invoices can be listed and opened with the filters the workspace already offers, among them due date, payment status, workflow step and supplier. Cortena B.V. publishes documentation and the connector sits at community tier. ### Who it is for Finance operators and approvers handling payables in Cortena. ### Tool surface The endpoint requires credentials, so eighteen is the listing's own count. The listing describes payables search and inspection using the same filters as the web workspace, plus approval status checks. Availability ## Where Cortena FinOps is listed Cortena FinOps is listed in the Claude connectors directory only. Cortena B.V. 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 Cortena FinOps publishes 18 tools to Claude, deeper than 65.6% of the 1,253 Claude-listed connectors. The median Claude-listed connector filed under Finance publishes 12, so this one runs 6 tools above its bucket's median and ranks 49th of 159 by tool count. It falls in the 11-20 tools band, which holds 22.5% of the Claude directory. Cortena FinOps 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 Cortena B.V. Verification Community-listed (61.5% of the Claude directory) Filed under Financial Services Endpoint `https://app.cortena.ai/api/mcp` Documentation [Publisher setup docs](https://help.cortena.ai/) Published tools 18 · 11-20 tools band Depth rank in Finance 49 of 159 Snapshot August 2026 Cortena FinOps 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 Cortena B.V. describes it > Cortena is a finance operating system for SMB finance teams. AI agents that run payables pre-accounting against your accounting system. This connector lets Claude work with your live Cortena data using the same permissions as the web app. Who it’s for: Finance operators and approvers who use Claude and want answers like “What invoices need my approval?” or “Show overdue unpaid payables this week” without switching tabs. What you can do - Search and inspect payables: list and open invoices with the same filters as the Cortena workspace (due date, payment status, workflow step, supplier, and more). - Check your approval and review queues: find invoices where you are eligible at an approval or review step. - Read Pulse dashboard metrics: action-required and insight cards with clickable deep links into filtered lists. - Browse workflows: see active workflow definitions and human step types. - Upload payables: ingest PDF, image, or XML invoice files through the same pipeline as manual upload. - Approve, complete review, or reject: changes use a prepare → you confirm → commit flow. Cortena never applies workflow actions from a single silent tool call. Security and access - Each user connects with their own Cortena login (OAuth authorization code + PKCE). - A tenant admin must grant MCP access per tenant. - Org admins register the connector once; each user connects individually at claude.ai/customize/connectors. - Read-only and read + write access modes are configurable when creating the OAuth client in Cortena Settings. Setup: Create an OAuth client under Settings → MCP access in Cortena, then connect Claude to https://app.cortena.ai/api/mcp Quoted from the connector's own Claude directory listing as captured in August 2026.
