Natural language
Drive your kitchen in natural language
Connect Melba to Claude or ChatGPT in under a minute. Chat with your assistant in natural language and let it create recipes, read your invoices, schedule your production or restock your inventory — directly inside your Melba account.
You stay in control: OAuth authentication, granular scopes you grant or revoke, and confirmation before every sensitive action.
Step-by-step setup guides:
Under the hood, the connection relies on the MCP (Model Context Protocol) — no API key to copy and paste.
MCP protocol
An open, secure connection to your assistants
Natural-language control runs on the MCP protocol (Model Context Protocol): an open standard that connects Melba to Claude, ChatGPT and compatible assistants — with no API key to copy-paste.
100+ tools
Recipes, invoices, production, stock, labels, sale prices… your Melba operations exposed as actionable tools.
OAuth 2.1 + granular scopes
Grant exactly what the assistant can read or change, and revoke access in one click from Melba.
Confirm before acting
In plan mode the assistant explains what it will do; nothing is written without your approval.
