penni-mcp
Penni — AI bookkeeper for small businesses. Connect your QuickBooks and manage your books through Claude Desktop or Cursor.
Quick Start
npx penni-mcp
On first run, you'll be prompted for your API key. Get yours at app.penni.so/dashboard/mcp.
Claude Desktop Setup
Add to your claude_desktop_config.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"penni": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["penni-mcp"]
}
}
}
Config file location:

~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json - Windows:
%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
Then restart Claude Desktop and ask: "What's my bank balance?"
Cursor Setup

npx penni-mcp
What You Can Do
Free (connect QBO and go)
- "What's my bank balance?" — real-time balances from QuickBooks
- "Show me my P&L for this month" — Profit & Loss report

How It Works
Penni connects to your QuickBooks Online account through a secure API. Your data lives in YOUR QuickBooks — not on our servers. If you stop using Penni, your books are exactly where they've always been.
API Key
You can also set your API key via environment variable:
PENNI_API_KEY=your_key_here npx penni-mcp
Or pass it as a flag:
npx penni-mcp --key your_key_here
The key is saved to ~/.penni/config.json after first run.
