Connect Claude & ChatGPT to Ramp

Ask your AI what a department spent on cards last month, which transactions are missing a memo or which bills are due, and it reads the answer from Ramp. It can also add memos to card transactions and create draft bills for vendors, which stay drafts until someone submits them in Ramp.

Questions

What can the AI do in Ramp?

It can read card transactions, physical and virtual cards, spend limits, users, departments, vendors, bills, draft bills, reimbursements, receipts, statements and your business balance. It can add a memo to a card transaction and create draft bills. It cannot pay bills, issue cards or change limits.

Does the AI see my Ramp credentials?

No. Your Ramp client ID and client secret are encrypted at rest and never shown to the AI. After you save them, they are not shown again, not even to you. The AI only sees the results of the tools it calls.

Can I control what the AI is allowed to do?

Yes. You choose which tools are switched on, so you can start with lookups only. Setting a memo and creating a draft bill can require your approval before they run. Every tool call is logged.

Does it work with ChatGPT?

Yes. In ChatGPT, open Settings › Apps & Connectors › Advanced, turn on Developer mode and add your PipMCP link. Developer mode needs a paid ChatGPT plan: Plus, Pro, Business or Enterprise. The same link also works in Claude (Settings › Connectors › Add custom connector), Cursor and other MCP clients.

What does it cost?

Ramp connects with OAuth, and OAuth connections need the PipMCP Pro plan or above. PipMCP also has a free plan with no credit card, but it does not include this connection. Paid plans bill per completed task. You also need your own Ramp account.

Which scopes should the Ramp app have?

Give it the read scopes for the data you want the AI to see, such as transactions, cards, users, bills, reimbursements, departments and vendors. Leave out anything you do not want reachable. Ramp then blocks it, whatever tools are switched on in PipMCP.
