Details

From the project README

HERO Software MCP by usefulapi

Use your HERO Software account from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client. Read contacts, projects, offers, invoices and project log entries, and run read-only GraphQL queries. Hosted, no local install: connect with your own credentials.

Live endpoint: https://hero-software.usefulapi.io/mcp · Homepage: https://usefulapi.io

Connect

  • Claude (claude.ai, Desktop): open Customize → Connectors, click + Add → Add custom connector, and paste https://hero-software.usefulapi.io/mcp.
  • Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http hero-software https://hero-software.usefulapi.io/mcp, then run /mcp to log in.
  • VS Code: Add to VS Code.
  • Cursor and other clients: add the URL as a remote MCP server:
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "hero-software": {
      "url": "https://hero-software.usefulapi.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config: the server signs you in with OAuth, and the login page asks for your HERO Software credentials.

Step-by-step setup, where to find your credentials, and FAQ: https://usefulapi.io/hero-software/

On first connect you provide a HERO API key (HERO support issues the key on request, see the HERO API documentation). The server validates it and stores it per user. No keys go in config files.

Pricing

PlanPriceLimit
Free$050 tool calls / month
Pro (per user)$9/mo or $90/yr (2 months free)10,000 tool calls / month
Pro+ (per user)$39/mo or $390/yr (2 months free)100,000 tool calls / month

Each paid plan covers this server only. Ask your AI to run hero_upgrade and choose Pro or Pro+, billed monthly or yearly (it returns a Stripe Checkout link). If you already have Pro, ask to change it to Pro+. The change requires your confirmation, keeps your billing interval and charges the price difference for the rest of the period immediately. Cancel any time with hero_cancel_subscription: your paid plan continues to the end of the paid period, with no refund for the current period, and asking to resume the same plan with hero_upgrade before then undoes the cancel. Or write to [email protected].

New to MCP?

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.

An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
