Your data

Read-only, your shop only, your call

  • Read-only. Claude cannot add, change or delete anything in Quotara. Quotes, jobs, prices and settings stay exactly as you left them.
  • Your shop only. Claude sees the same shop you see when you sign in, and nothing from any other shop.
  • Not for operators. Shop floor operators can't connect an AI app, so prices and margins stay with owners, estimators and supervisors.
  • Where your data goes. What Claude reads to answer you is sent to Anthropic, the company behind Claude, under Anthropic's own terms. See section 7 of our privacy policy.
  • Remove it any time. In Quotara, open My account and press Remove next to Claude under Connected AI apps. Access stops straight away. You can also disconnect it in Claude under Customize, then Connectors.
Help

If something isn't working

  • “Your Quotara role does not include access through AI apps.” Your login is set up as an operator. Ask the shop owner to change your role if you need it.
  • “This shop's Quotara subscription is not active.” The free trial has ended or the subscription has lapsed. Sign in to Quotara to choose a plan.
  • Claude doesn't use Quotara. Check Quotara is switched on for the chat under + then Connectors, and mention Quotara in your question.
  • Still stuck? Email hello@getquotara.ca and we'll help you get connected.
