A paid desktop app from MarketPing for Windows 10/11 and macOS 12+ that lets Claude, ChatGPT Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, Ollama and other MCP apps read your TallyPrime books. It talks to Tally's own XML server on port 9000. Tally.ERP 9 isn't supported, and the Mac app reads Tally on a Windows PC over your network. Seventeen read tools cover companies, trial balance, profit and loss, balance sheet, ledgers, vouchers, outstanding bills, stock and SQL over what it has already read; export_table also writes files to your Documents folder. Two more tools create ledgers and Journal, Payment, Receipt or Contra vouchers. They stay off until you turn on "Allow AI apps to make entries in Tally", ask in the chat before each entry and can't delete anything. MarketPing says your books never reach its servers: activation sends only the key, a hashed computer id, the computer name, the OS and the app version. Whatever a cloud AI app reads still goes to that AI provider, so use Ollama or LM Studio to keep everything on the machine. Tally's XML server has no password, so anyone who can reach port 9000 can read your books: allow it on private networks only and never forward it. Biggest deduction: maintenance, because the app is closed source and brand new (version 1.0.0, released 2026-11-12, with no changelog or named maintainers), so its update cadence can't be checked and we scored it one band lower. None of the privacy claims can be checked against source code. Free 7-day trial, then from ₹1,499 a year. No advisories found.
