Available tools 4

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

draft

draft_invoice

Price an invoice (subtotal, tax after discount, shipping, total) and get a builderUrl that opens the free AI Invoice Generator builder prefilled. The human can download a PDF there, or connect Stripe to get a pay link that accepts partial payments. Nothing is stored or sent.

invoice

list_invoice_templates

List five editable sample invoices: hourly consulting, retainers, milestones, contractor labor/materials and deposit requests. Example rates in USD cents, not pricing advice. No account needed.

prepare

prepare_invoice_template

Select a template by ID and add sender, customer and dates. Returns invoice JSON, calculated totals and an editable builderUrl. Example amounts need review. Nothing stored or sent.

render

render_invoice_pdf

Generate a downloadable PDF artifact without a browser, account or storage. Requires sender/customer names, invoice number, dates and complete line items. Western European text only; unsupported characters or logos return an explicit error, use the web builder for those. Does not send invoices or process payments.

Alder Invoices — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Alder Invoices do?

It exposes 4 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: draft_invoice, list_invoice_templates, prepare_invoice_template, render_invoice_pdf. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →

Is Alder Invoices working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 41 of 92 checks got a reply (44.6%), average response time 313 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect Alder Invoices?

Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.

Does Alder Invoices need an API key?

No. Alder Invoices completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 4 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is Alder Invoices?

It answers our handshake in 313 ms on average, which is faster than 43% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
