What it changes for a deal team
You ask Claude where a deal stands or what a memo says, and it searches your Meridian pipeline, relationships, emails and files, then answers in the conversation. Meridian states the assistant sees exactly what you see in the app, scoped to your organisation, so the answer comes from the same data you already have access to, nothing wider.
IC prep without the scramble. search_deals returns a deal's stage, team and latest Investment Committee decision, then search_document_content pulls the CIM passage on customer concentration.
Relationship context before a call. search_interactions lines up every meeting and email thread with a bank in date order, and search_notes finds what your team wrote about them.
Reporting on demand, minus the spreadsheet. search_reports locates the weekly pipeline report and get_report_data brings back its rows with the columns you see in the app.
What Claude will not do with the current sheet: create or update a deal or a company. Meridian's documentation describes those writes anyway; the limits section lays out the gap. Nothing runs in the background either; no tool wakes up when a deal moves stage or an email lands. That is an automation tool's job, a different line of work, and the Integrations hub covers it.
The vocabulary in one minute
Five terms to have straight before you connect Meridian AI.
- Connector
- The link you set up once between Claude and an account you already hold, so Claude can work in it while it answers.
- Tool
- One named capability the connector gives Claude. Claude chooses the ones it needs on its own; the directory sheet names them all.
- Authorization
- Meridian's own sign-in, through your firm's SSO, where you grant Claude the access it will use. Given once per person, withdrawn the same way.
- Approval
- The confirmation Claude waits for in the chat before it carries out something that changes your account.
- MCP
- The shared standard behind connectors; it is what lets an assistant like Claude talk to an outside service.
Connect Meridian AI to Claude in three steps
- 01
Locate Meridian AI
In Claude, open Customize, then Connectors, and look for Meridian AI. On a Team or Enterprise workspace, an Owner or Primary Owner has to enable it for the organisation before each member can sign in.
- 02
Sign in to Meridian
Click Connect on its row, then sign in to Meridian in the window it opens itself; the access you grant is tied to your own Meridian account. If the link breaks later, use Disconnect and connect again.
- 03
Check the authorization
Read the authorization screen before approving. It is Meridian's screen, not Claude's, and it decides how far the access goes. Meridian adds that ending the session in your SSO, or removing the connector in Claude, takes the access back.
All 13 tools, grouped by what they do
Meridian AI gives Claude 13 tools: 13 that read your account, 0 that change something in it.
The directory sheet only lists read tools. Tool names stay exactly as Claude displays them.

What Claude reads (13)
13 toolsThirteen tools that search and consult your Meridian workspace without changing it.
get_report_data
Brings back the rows of a saved report tab, with the very columns you see in the Meridian app.
search_reports.list_filter_attributes
Surfaces the custom fields and KPIs your firm defined for deals and companies, with each one's type, usable filter operators, value range and preset options.
search_companies
Looks up portfolio companies, targets and prospects and shows each one's type, priority and recent activity.
search_deals
Pulls pipeline opportunities and shows, for each, its stage, deal team, key metrics, sourcing themes and the latest Investment Committee decision.
search_document_content
Searches the contents of your files by meaning to isolate the exact passage that addresses your question, rather than files whose names merely look relevant.
search_documents
Finds files uploaded to Meridian, such as CIMs, IC memos and reports, by name, type or the folder they sit in. It looks at the files themselves, not at the text inside them.
search_emails
Combs your organisation's email by keyword and by meaning. It can pull up a full thread, correspondence with one person, or the messages tied to a deal or company.
search_interactions
Stitches meetings and email threads into one date-ordered timeline, for a company, a person, a deal, or your whole organisation at once.
search_meetings
Retrieves meetings, Investment Committee sessions and pipeline reviews. A private meeting stays visible only to whoever created it and to its attendees, as it does in the app.
search_notes
Explores your notes by meaning, not only by exact wording. Results cover notes you own plus notes that have been shared publicly.
search_people
Looks up contacts, executives, bankers and other key people, along with when you last met or emailed each of them.
search_reports
Lists your saved reports, the multi-tab dashboards spanning deals, companies, people, interactions, staffing, activity and notes.
get_report_data.whoami
Returns your identity and organisation context inside Meridian. That tells you which identity and which firm the connection is using.
What Claude checks with you first
By default, Claude pauses and asks for your go-ahead before every action it takes on an account for you. The request appears in the chat, right when it matters.
With the current sheet, every tool searches or reads, and no source describes a confirmation specific to any of them. On Team and Enterprise workspaces, owners decide whether members may let certain actions through without being asked each time, and they can cap a connector for the whole organisation, reads open and writes shut. Nobody gets around that from their own account. Above all, Claude acts with your Meridian permissions and never sees beyond them.
Which plans it's available on
None of the 819 sheets in the official directory shows plan availability. Connector by connector, that information is not published anywhere.
The general rule is documented: remote connectors are open to all users on Claude, Cowork, Claude Desktop and mobile. On Team and Enterprise, an Owner or Primary Owner enables the connector for the organisation before members connect one by one. Meridian describes the same admin-first sequence. For the live status, the connector's sheet in the official directory is the reference to check.
Where this connector stops
A connector is not an automation. Claude calls these tools while it answers you: nothing starts when a deal changes stage or an email comes in.
By default the sheet only exposes reads, and that is an observed floor: an admin can open writes that appear on no public page. Only the publisher documents this connector; Claude's help centre has no page on it. Meridian's documentation also describes create and update tools for deals and companies that the sheet does not list: the comparison below dates both sources and says which one to trust. The directory badge is not a security audit, and Anthropic does not guarantee a publisher's tools behave as described.

What this page followsThe sheet, read in October 2026, only lists reads; Meridian's undated documentation adds writes on deals and companies. Neither is marked as outdated. What Claude can do for you is whatever the connector's sheet shows in your workspace, so check it on your own account.
