Connect Sage Intacct to Claude AI
Without Building It Yourself
Enterprise middleware that securely bridges Claude AI and Sage Intacct. REST API & AI Gateway integration, multi-entity RBAC, approval workflows, and full audit trail — live in under a week.
Intacct isn't a simple spreadsheet
Sage Intacct is a cloud-native, multi-entity finance system with its own API, permissions model, and close workflows. AI without ERP context can describe — but can't execute.
What ChatFin Handles
Every Intacct-specific challenge that blocks generic AI — we solve it at the middleware layer so your team doesn't have to.
Sage Intacct AI Gateway — Unlocked
Sage launched an official AI Gateway and MCP server in late 2025, enabling external AI tools to connect to Intacct. ChatFin is purpose-built to operate on top of this gateway — adding the finance logic, approval rules, and agent intelligence that the raw API alone cannot provide.
MCP Protocol · REST API · AI GatewayMulti-Entity Complexity
Intacct's multi-entity architecture means data is siloed by company. Generic AI can't route queries, enforce entity-level RBAC, or consolidate across entities without purpose-built middleware.
Generic AI fails hereDimension-Aware Queries
Intacct uses custom dimensions (Department, Location, Project) for financial reporting. AI must understand your dimension structure to return meaningful GL results.
Not out-of-the-boxClose Automation Context
Intacct's close workspace tracks tasks, owners, and status. AI agents need live awareness of close state to trigger, escalate, or report correctly.
ChatFin awareAuditability Non-Negotiable
Finance teams need every AI-executed action logged with attribution and timestamps. Intacct's own AI Gateway includes governance controls — ChatFin extends these further.
AI Trust Label compatibleFrom query to explanation
Connecting Claude to Intacct is straightforward. Getting an answer a business reader can act on takes more than a successful API call.
How do I do all this to give a clear, concise and easy to understand direction for this business person I'm working with, quantitative financial modeling mindset to now, how do I think about more than just a model for this business?

Five-Node Integration Pipeline
ChatFin connects Claude AI to Sage Intacct through a secure, validated pipeline. Every AI action passes through authentication, business logic, and permission checks before reaching your ERP.

protocol
Natural Language Input
Ask in plain English. ChatFin translates intent into valid Intacct API operations with correct parameters.
Dimension Mapping
Custom dimensions like Department, Location, and Project are automatically resolved in every GL query.
Entity Isolation
Multi-entity queries are routed, isolated, and consolidated correctly — no cross-entity data leakage.
Full Audit Logging
Every AI action logged with user, timestamp, entity, and before/after state. Export-ready for auditors.
Multi-Entity Finance, Powered by AI
Sage Intacct's multi-entity architecture is one of its biggest strengths — and one of the hardest things to connect AI to. ChatFin handles it natively.
AI that understands your entire entity hierarchy
When a CFO asks "how are we doing across all entities?", the AI needs to know which entities exist, route to each, enforce entity-level permissions, and consolidate the answer. Generic AI can't do this.
Entity-Aware Query Routing
ChatFin maps your entity structure and routes every query to the correct company context automatically.
Per-Entity RBAC Enforcement
A Regional Controller sees their entity's data only. A CFO sees the consolidated view. Permissions enforced on every call.
Automated Consolidation
AI can pull GL data, AP status, and close progress across all entities and present a unified view in seconds.
Intercompany Elimination Support
Run intercompany elimination workflows across entity pairs via Intacct's API — with AI flagging discrepancies before posting.
Finance Workflows Your Team Will Actually Use
Once connected, finance teams stop navigating Intacct screens and start getting answers — and executing operations — through natural conversation with Claude AI.

Every AI Action Respects Your Intacct Permissions
ChatFin enforces Sage Intacct's native role-based access at the middleware layer. No AI action can exceed a user's configured Intacct permissions — across any entity.
Access is enforced at the ChatFin middleware layer and re-validated against Sage Intacct's permission model on every API call. No AI action can exceed a user's configured Intacct roles — across any entity or module.
Five Independent Security Layers
Every credential, query, and financial write is protected before reaching Intacct — and every action is logged with full attribution after it does.
