Filevine MCP — Claude Integration
### Built by Oktopeak — AI transformation & automation for law firms
Digital transformation for legal and healthcare businesses. We build AI integrations, workflow automation, and custom software your firm owns outright — including this connector. → Book a 30-min call
An open-source MCP (Model Context Protocol) server connecting Claude to Filevine practice management platform. Access cases, contacts, documents, notes, tasks, and custom PI data from Claude with automatic rate limiting and audit logging.
Supported Endpoints: 15 tools covering the Filevine v2 REST API.
[!TIP]
Not a developer? You don't need to be.
The README below assumes someone comfortable editing a JSON config file. If that's not you or your team, we deploy this for law firms: scoped credentials, audit log wired in, one custom workflow, training.
