Full read-write Claude connector for Deel
Have Claude draft contracts and update worker records in Deel
Stop tabbing between Deel and a spreadsheet to onboard and pay people. Claude drafts contracts, updates worker and team records, and submits payroll inputs and off-cycle payments inside Deel, sending contracts only once you confirm. Final payment approval stays in Deel's UI.
Deel is a global HR and payroll platform for hiring, paying, and managing contractors and employees across countries. Teams want Claude to do more than look up worker records: to create contracts, run payments, and update people data inside Deel itself.
What is a Deel MCP server?
A Deel MCP server is a small hosted service that exposes Deel's data and actions to Claude over the Model Context Protocol, so Claude can people, time, and pay inside your own account. We build it as a custom connector with separate read and write tools, and destructive actions stay gated behind your approval.
What can Deel's current connector do today?
Deel publishes an official Claude connector today, and its tool set leans heavily toward reads: Claude can surface worker, contract, and payment details, with a small set of standard write actions. A custom Deel connector builds on that with fuller coverage and scoped, human-in-the-loop controls, so the specific actions, fields, and approvals your workflow needs all live inside the system of record.
What does full read-write Deel access unlock?
Full read-write Deel access lets Claude draft and send contracts, add or update worker and team records, submit payroll inputs and off-cycle payments for your review, and manage onboarding tasks once you confirm. Final approval and payment stay in Deel's UI. The HR and payroll work that used to mean tabbing between Deel and a spreadsheet happens where the data already lives.
- Draft and send a contractor or EOR contract from a role and rate you specify
- Add a new worker and update profile, team, or compensation fields
- Submit payroll inputs like bonuses, deductions, and off-cycle payments for review
- Create and assign onboarding tasks for a new hire
- Update time off, expense, or invoice statuses as you review them
- Find every worker matching a query and propose batched record updates
Can Claude create and send contracts in Deel?
Yes. Deel ships an official connector that leans toward reads with a standard write set, so a custom connector adds fuller, scoped coverage. Claude drafts a contractor or EOR contract from the role, rate, and worker details you provide. Sending is a separate, gated step that runs only after you approve.
Can Claude add and update worker records in Deel?
Adding and updating worker records is core to a custom Deel connector. Claude can create a new worker and update profile, team, or compensation fields, then propose batched changes across everyone matching a query. You review and confirm the writes, so the system of record only changes the way you intend.
Can Claude help with payroll and off-cycle payments in Deel?
Yes, within what the API supports. Claude can submit payroll inputs like bonuses and deductions, create off-cycle payments, and surface gross-to-net results for you to review. Deel's API has no endpoint to schedule, approve, or run a payment, so final approval and payment happen in Deel's UI.
How a Deel connector works
We build a small MCP server that connects to Deel through OAuth or a scoped API token using the narrowest permissions the work needs. Read tools (look up workers, contracts, payments) and write tools (create contract, update record, submit payroll input) are separated, and outbound actions like sending a contract or submitting an off-cycle payment for review require your confirmation. Final payment approval and payroll runs stay in Deel's UI, which the API does not expose. Claude only ever has the access your own Deel account already has, and we can add IP allowlisting where your setup supports it.
