Using Kowalah in Claude

Once connected, ask Claude natural language questions and it will call the appropriate Kowalah tools.

See what’s waiting for you

The fastest way to get oriented in Claude is to ask for an update with no specifics. The connector returns a role-appropriate rollup of your work, plus any Discovery briefs you’ve been invited to respond to.
What's pending for me in Kowalah?
Do I have any discovery invites waiting?
What's the status of my projects?
The response includes a pending_discoveries section showing each brief, its goal, the business value context, and when it closes. You only see invites you’re personally on — never anyone else’s.

Get a focused view

Ask about a specific project, deliverable, Expert Request, or opportunity by name or by reference number (PRJ-…, DEL-…, ER-…, OPP-…):
How's the Finance Automation project going?
What's ER-42 doing?

Submit an opportunity

Anyone in your organization can raise an Opportunity directly from chat. You don’t have to decide whether it’s an Expert Request, a deliverable, or a project — Kowalah’s team triages it after submission.
I want to raise an opportunity with Kowalah about cleaning up
the way we onboard new suppliers
Claude will check the accelerator library first, walk you through goal and context, then submit the opportunity and give you back the opportunity number.
You can also pick Submit an opportunity from Claude’s prompt menu to start the guided submission flow directly. It accepts an optional one-liner to seed the conversation.

Respond to a discovery

If Claude has shown you a pending discovery in your update, just tell it which one you want to respond to:
I want to respond to the supplier onboarding discovery
Claude links your opportunity back to the discovery brief, copies the project linkage across, and marks your invite as responded so reminders stop.

Multiple organizations

If you belong to multiple Kowalah organizations, the connector provides access to all of them. Specify which organization you mean if it’s ambiguous:
List projects in my Acme Corp organization

Troubleshooting

Authentication failed

Make sure you’re signing in with the same account you use at app.kowalah.com. If you use Google sign-in on the platform, use the same Google account here.

Tools not appearing

Try disconnecting and reconnecting the Kowalah connector. If tools still don’t appear, check that your Kowalah account has an active organization membership.

”No organizations found”

Your Kowalah account doesn’t have any accepted organization memberships. Ask your organization admin to invite you, or sign up at app.kowalah.com first.
