Manage SaaS Contracts in Claude Desktop

`list_contracts` pulls active billing agreements directly into your local workspace. Your agent reads the exact subscription terms, checks execution dates, and flags mismatches before they hit your ledger. When terms change, `create_contract` writes the updated billing schedule back to Maxio. You avoid manual data entry errors because Claude Desktop executes the API call with the exact parameters you approve in the chat interface.

Track and Update Customer Records

`get_customer` extracts profile properties and account logic straight to your conversation. Your agent matches CRM records with your live billing data to find mismatched account tiers or missing email addresses. Fix these discrepancies instantly by triggering `update_customer` to overwrite stale data in your Maxio vault. If a new lead signs, `create_customer` provisions the account profile in seconds without forcing you to open a browser tab.

Reconcile Invoices and Churn Flags

The `list_invoices` MCP tool exposes the raw arrays behind your active billings, showing you exactly which accounts are past due. Your agent parses these lists to calculate your current cash flow or flag unpaid balances. To resolve billing disputes, use `create_invoice` to generate one-off charges or adjustments based on real-time client requests. If a customer churns permanently, `delete_customer` removes their profile and logs the churn flag for your finance team.
