Paymo MCP. Manage billing, tasks, and time entries directly from your agent.

Paymo gives your AI client a direct line into the Paymo Project Platform. You don't gotta mess with some clunky web portal; you just run commands, and we spit out structured data—JSON arrays—that your workflow can use right away. This single endpoint handles everything from tracking down who works on what to pulling current invoice numbers.

CORE PROJECT SCOPE AND SETUP

You start by mapping out the client's whole setup. You'll run list_clients to grab an array of every active client ID in your agency. To see which projects are running, call list_projects; that returns a list of all current project IDs and their associated client bindings. If you need deep details on one specific job, use get_project_details.

It pulls deep info about a single project ID, including its boundaries and every client attached to it. You can also run list_users to get an array listing every user identity tied to your agency's accounts.

TASK AND MILESTONE MANAGEMENT

When you need to track work or set goals, these tools are what you use. To see a full log of existing tasks against a specific client or project ID, run list_tasks. If you gotta kick off a new job, create_task accepts parameters and dispatches that new task instance, validating its boundaries and owners across the platform.

You can also check on predefined targets by calling list_milestones; this shows when key deliverables are scheduled or marked as complete. Remember to use list_projects and list_clients together if you're trying to trace which tasks or milestones belong where.

LOGGING TIME AND BILLING DATA

This is where the money comes in, so pay attention. To track hours worked, you first grab a complete list of recorded time entries by running list_time_entries. If you need to log new time, use create_time_entry; it takes specific parameters and assigns those hours against an existing task or client ledger while confirming the assignment against project and user boundaries.

For billing, you pull structural data for active records using list_invoices, which shows amounts due and current status across multiple invoices. You're always keeping track of who logged time and when by checking that full history list.

SUMMARY OF WORKFLOWS

• To verify the whole scope, run list_clients then use the resulting IDs in list_projects.
• Need to start a new piece of work? You validate boundaries first with get_project_details, then you dispatch it using create_task.
• When someone finishes hours, they log it via create_time_entry, and you check the full history using list_time_entries.
• To make sure you get paid, run list_invoices; that gives you all the status updates and amounts due across your active billing records. It's a straight shot from operational data to financial reality.
