# GoForma for developers

GoForma is a UK accounting practice for limited companies, sole traders and contractors. These docs explain how to reach GoForma from software: AI assistants, automation tools and your own code.

## What is live today

| What | Address | Who can use it |
|---|---|---|
| Public MCP server: UK tax calculators, pricing and quotes | `https://tools.goforma.com/mcp` | Anyone, no account |
| Client MCP server: your own company's deadlines, filings, post and requests | `https://mcp.goforma.com/mcp` | GoForma clients, signing in with their dashboard login |

## Coming next

| What | Status |
|---|---|
| [REST API](/api/) with OAuth 2.0 | Planned. Same data and permissions as the client MCP server |
| [Webhooks](/webhooks/) for deadlines, filings, post and requests | Planned |
| [Zapier, Make and n8n apps](/no-code/) | Planned, Zapier first |

## What it will never do

- File anything with HMRC or Companies House. GoForma's accountants file, after review.
- Take a payment or ask for card details. Payments go through GoForma's hosted checkout only.
- Change your FreeAgent books. FreeAgent access is read only.
- Act without asking. Anything that sends a request to your accountant asks you to confirm first.

## Start here

- [Quickstart](/quickstart/): connect Claude or ChatGPT in two minutes.
- [MCP servers](/ai/mcp/): endpoints, sign-in, permissions and the tool list.
- [Starter prompts](/ai/prompts/): copy and paste.
- [Security and data](/security/): what is shared, with whom, and how to disconnect.

Every page here is also published as Markdown. Add `.md` to any address, or use [llms.txt](/llms.txt), so your assistant can read the docs directly.
