MCP-compatible · Agent-ready

Built for the agent era, not just the API era

Every HONO capability is exposed as a Model Context Protocol (MCP) tool, a REST endpoint, a GraphQL field and a real-time webhook. Native connectors for the systems you already run, and a developer platform for everything else.

APIs your humans use. Actions your agents call.

Traditional iPaaS wires two systems together. HONO's surface is designed for a third caller: the agent. Every action is described, authenticated and observable in a way that MCP-aware clients can plan against.

MCP-compatible

Every HONO capability is exposed as a Model Context Protocol tool, so any MCP-aware agent (Claude, custom LLM stacks, or your internal copilots) can call it directly.

Agent-callable actions

Apply for leave, approve pending requests, regularise attendance, retrieve a payslip with OTP verification. Actions ship with structured schemas and permission scopes designed for autonomous callers.

Structured tool schemas

Typed JSON schemas per action, deterministic response shapes and machine-readable error contracts: the kind of surface agents can plan against, not just chat about.

Observable & auditable

Every agent call is authenticated, scoped, logged and rate-limited at the gateway. Security teams see who (human or agent) did what, when, and on whose authority.

The HR stack, in one map

HONO works with the systems enterprises already run, through open APIs, delivered integrations and connectors as they ship.

Pre-built connector for employee, compensation and payroll-journal sync. Today: connect via REST/GraphQL APIs or delivered integration.

Coming soon

SAP SuccessFactors

Pre-built connector for payroll journals and master data. Today: connect via REST/GraphQL APIs or delivered integration.

REST API Agent-ready

ServiceNow

Route HR service requests and IT tickets across both platforms, so a query raised in either system stays in sync.

Coming soon

HubSpot

Connect CRM records to HONO so people data and customer-facing teams stay aligned without manual exports.

REST API Agent-ready

ERP / custom

Push employee master data, cost centres and payroll journals into any ERP via REST or a custom adapter built from the SDK.

Platform Agent-ready

Unified API gateway

A single entry point for all HR data with consistent authentication, logging and error handling across every connection.

Beta Agent-ready

Payroll platforms

HONO integrates with major payroll platforms so pay runs draw directly from live attendance, leave and compensation data.

REST API Agent-ready

Payroll cycle API

Query every payroll cycle with status and processing detail via GET /api/v1/payroll/cycles.

Showing 9 of 43

Query anything. Subscribe to anything. Call anything.

Every HONO resource is reachable programmatically over REST or GraphQL, streamable via webhook, and callable as an MCP tool. Build against the sandbox first, promote to production with the same code.

  • Versioned endpoints (/api/v1/) across every resource.
  • Secret-protected webhooks for inbound triggers and outbound event notifications.
  • Consistent authentication, rate limiting and audit logging across every call.

Illustrative. Request sandbox access for live specifications.

agent-call.ts
// 1) REST: query with filtering + pagination
const res = await fetch(
  'https://api.hono.ai/v1/employees?limit=50',
  { headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${token}` } }
);
const { employees, meta } = await res.json();

// 2) Webhook: secret-protected, replay-safe
app.post('/hooks/hono', verifySecret, (req) => {
  const { event, payload } = req.body;
  // 'employee.created' · 'payroll.cycle.completed'
});

// 3) MCP: agent-callable action
await mcp.call('hono.apply_leave', {
  leave_type: 'earned',
  from_date: '2026-08-10',
  to_date: '2026-08-12',
  reason: 'Family event'
});

Integrations that take days, not months

Pre-built connectors and template mappings mean most integrations are configured rather than built.

01

Pick your connection

Start with a native connector, or use the REST API, GraphQL and SDKs for any system that isn't covered out of the box.

02

Authenticate and map

Authorise with OAuth 2.0, SAML or an API key, then map fields using the transformation tools. Test everything in the sandbox first.

03

Go live and monitor

Data syncs in real time, encrypted end to end, with every call logged so failures surface immediately.

Frequently asked questions

Still have questions?

Our team is happy to walk you through HONO and answer anything specific to your organisation.

HONO exposes its actions as tools that follow the Model Context Protocol shape: typed input schemas, deterministic responses and permission scopes an MCP-aware agent can plan against. Any client that speaks MCP (Claude, custom LLM stacks or your internal copilots) can register HONO as a tool provider and invoke actions like apply_leave, get_payslip or approve_pending_requests. The manifest is available on request.

APIs for humans. Actions for agents.
