Quaderno for AI agents

Quaderno automates tax calculations, invoicing, and compliance reporting for businesses selling internationally. Finance teams use it to stay compliant with tax rules across regions. Connect it once through Arc0, and your agent, or Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, can use it through one MCP endpoint, limited to what each user approved.

07 · FAQ

Quaderno and Arc0, answered.

Q01

Can I use Quaderno with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?

Yes. Connect Quaderno to Arc0 once, then add your Arc0 MCP URL to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or any other remote-MCP client. Each assistant only gets the Quaderno actions you allow.

Q02

How do users connect Quaderno?

Users add their Quaderno api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.

Q03

Which Quaderno actions can my agent take?

76 in total: 35 read, 31 write and 10 destructive, such as “create Coupon”. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.

Q04

Can I stop my agent from deleting things in Quaderno?

Yes. Actions like “delete Coupon” are graded destructive. Set destructive actions to deny, or to ask so the user approves each one, and blocked calls still show up on the audit log.

Q05

Can my own backend call Quaderno too?

Yes. The same Quaderno connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
