**CorpusIQ is the live-data brain you plug into ChatGPT, Claude, or any AI assistant.** Connect the tools you already use - QuickBooks, Shopify, Stripe, HubSpot, GA4, Klaviyo, Slack, and 40+ more - then ask plain-English questions and get answers grounded in your actual business data. No dashboards. No reports. No waiting on someone to pull the numbers.

> "How much did we make last month across Shopify and Stripe?" - answered in seconds.

## What makes it different

| Instead of... | CorpusIQ lets you... |
|---------------|---------------------|
| Building dashboards nobody checks | Ask questions in plain English, get real data |
| Exporting CSVs from 5 different tools | Query everything at once - cross-source, live |
| Waiting on someone to "pull the numbers" | Get answers in seconds, not days |
| Learning SQL or hiring a data team | Your AI assistant becomes your analyst |
| Static reports that are outdated by lunch | Live data, every time you ask |

---

## How it works - 3 steps

1. **Connect** - Authorize external-source retrieval through each provider's documented OAuth flow
2. **Ask** - Type a question in ChatGPT, Claude, or any MCP-compatible assistant
3. **Get answers** - Source data passes through CorpusIQ to the requesting AI client with citations; that client's conversation policy applies after receipt.

## For developers: MCP-native from day one

CorpusIQ is built on the [Model Context Protocol (MCP)](https://modelcontextprotocol.io) - the open standard for connecting AI assistants to external tools and data.

```json
{
 "mcpServers": {
 "corpusiq": {
 "url": "https://mcp2.corpusiq.io/mcp",
 "transport": "streamable-http"
 }
 }
}
```

Your AI assistant gets 40+ live data tools instantly. No SDK. No custom integration. Just works.
