Connected to the tools you already pay for

Your crew stays in Telegram. Your files and hours land in Google Drive, Xero payroll, and your AI assistant.

Consumption-Smart Architecture · Pay Only for Active Worker-Days

Zemke’s Bring-Your-Own-Buckets Diagram: How to Keep Your ZimQi Consumption Low

In ZimQi, 2 credits = 1 approved worker-day (Starter includes 200 credits/mo for up to 3 crew · 1 site; Solo includes 500 credits/mo for up to 10 crew · 3 sites; Team includes 2,500 credits/mo and Scale includes 6,000 credits/mo with unlimited crew & subcontractor profiles). By plugging in the 4 buckets your business already owns, your credits go almost 100% toward active workdays on site:

0 ZimQi Credits

Bucket 1 — Your AI Bucket (Grok, ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Cursor)

Connect your existing AI subscription via our 77-tool MCP server or paste your own verified API key (BYO-AI). Smart Form template imports, compliance checks, and natural-language ops queries run on your own AI bucket for 0 ZimQi credits (saving 5–10 credits per form import).

0 Storage Markup

Bucket 2 — Your Cloud Storage Bucket (Google Drive & Dropbox Live · OneDrive Soon)

Completed branded Smart Form PDFs (v1, v2), Word .docx files, and site photos file straight into your own Google Drive or Dropbox (OneDrive coming soon). You never pay ZimQi extra per-gigabyte cloud storage fees, and your daily crew forms are included inside the 2-credit approved worker-day.

$0 Idle Roster Seats

Bucket 3 — Your Chat & Phone Bucket (Telegram + Native Browser Share)

Your crew checks in, checks out, and answers site forms inside Telegram (`@zimqi_assistant_bot`) or via a personal mobile browser link. Zero SMS per-message fees, zero app-store friction, and on Team & Scale, casuals and subcontractors cost 0 credits on days they don’t work.

0 Extra Export Credits

Bucket 4 — Your Email & Accounting Bucket (Gmail/Outlook + Xero/MYOB/QuickBooks)

Receive approval alerts in Gmail/Outlook, export clean Bookkeeper CSVs for MYOB/QuickBooks, push approved employee hours to Xero Payroll AU, and push approved subcontractor hours × rate into Xero ACCPAY Draft Bills for 0 extra credits (plus 4 free roster imports every month).

What is MCP, in plain words?

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is a standard way for AI apps to call tools on your systems — a bit like giving your assistant a secure remote control, not free rein of your database.

ZimQi’s MCP tools go through the same service layer as Telegram and the web app: plan limits, role checks, and audit. Your assistant can suggest and run the actions your key allows. It does not get a back door.

Example prompts

Things people actually ask once a key is connected:

  • “Import next week’s roster from this spreadsheet.”
  • “Who’s on site at 11 Brighton St right now?”
  • “Show Jack’s hours for the last 2 weeks.”
  • “Add a site called Warehouse B, job number W-204, and set Sam as the site approver.”
  • “Assign Mia and Sam to the CBD clean for ongoing.”
  • “Log sick leave for Liam tomorrow and find available cover with a White Card.”
  • “List any in-progress Smart Forms on Harbour St or expiring crew licences in the next 30 days.”

Approvals stay with a named human in Telegram or the dashboard. The assistant won’t approve timesheets, change billing or silently rewrite someone else’s clock times.

Use ZimQi in Claude and ChatGPT

ZimQi is available in the Claude directory. In Claude, open the listing and choose Connect.

Or add ZimQi as a custom connector. You sign in to ZimQi and approve access. There's no API key to copy.

  1. In Claude (Settings › Connectors › Add custom connector) or ChatGPT (Settings › Apps, with developer mode on), add this server URL:
    https://zimqi.com.au/mcp
  2. Click Connect. A ZimQi page opens titled “Connect with ZimQi”.
  3. Sign in, or start the free trial (30 days or 100 credits, no card), then choose Allow.

Included on every plan and the free trial, with the same site and crew limits and no extra credits. Custom connectors in ChatGPT depend on your ChatGPT plan; check OpenAI's current availability.

What the assistant can read and change

  • Read: sites (including per-site approvers), crew (including worker type, skills & licences), site assignments, rosters, leave & available cover, Smart Forms & site records (including paused drafts), who's checked in today, attendance logs, timesheets, and timesheet and payroll CSV exports.
  • Change (owners and managers only): add or update sites, per-site approvers and crew, manage worker skills and licence/insurance renewals, assign or remove people from sites, import a roster, log or cancel leave, create or edit Smart Form questions, save or submit form entries, prepare draft subcontractor bills, check people in or out, mark someone absent, and propose a timesheet correction for a person to approve.
  • Bookkeepers' connections are read-only. The assistant can't approve timesheets or touch billing.
  • You choose what to allow on the ZimQi consent screen, and the connection uses your role's permissions.
  • Disconnect any time: Integrations & API › Connected apps › Disconnect. The assistant loses access straight away.

What you ask the assistant, and the ZimQi data it reads to answer, is also handled by Anthropic or OpenAI under their own terms. See our privacy policy. Questions: support@zimqi.com.au.

Keys and roles

Every signed-in person can create their own API key. The key carries that person’s role:

  • Owner / supervisor — Full access (same as you): sites, crew, rosters, check-in/out.
  • Bookkeeper / worker — Read only by default.

Owners can see and revoke every key in the company. Everyone else manages only the keys they created. Same site and crew limits as your plan — no extra credits for MCP or REST calls.

Connect in 2 minutes

  1. Sign in to ZimQi (trial is fine).
  2. Open Integrations & API in the sidebar.
  3. Create an API key, copy it once.
  4. In your MCP client, add the ZimQi server URL from that page and paste the bearer API key.
  5. Or use REST: /api/v1 with Authorization: Bearer … — try it in the Swagger docs.

Honest boundaries

Nothing is pushed to Xero or approved without a real person’s sign-off in your chain. Approved employee hours push to Xero Payroll (or download as a clean bookkeeper CSV), approved subcontractor claims create a Xero Draft Bill with the worker’s invoice attached, and every completed PDF and site photo is filed straight into your own Google Drive or Dropbox (OneDrive coming soon). No live GPS tracking theatre. No “the AI said yes so it’s paid.” A real person still owns the irreversible steps.
