How It Works

Beyond the core skills, Claude can query all your fund and company data. See the data dictionary for the complete list of tables and fields available.

The plugin gives Claude access to:

  1. Fund metrics — NAV, TVPI, DPI, IRR, and performance data
  2. Partner data — Contributions, distributions, capital accounts, and investor information
  3. Portfolio financials — Company-level revenue, EBITDA, valuations, and multiples
  4. Tearsheet generation — Automatic PDF creation for portfolio company profiles
  5. Regulatory data — Form ADV Schedule D, AUM rollups, and audit support

All queries are read-only — Claude can query and analyze your data but cannot create, modify, or delete records.


Available Skills

The plugin includes the following skills that Claude uses to answer your questions:

SkillWhat It Does

download-tearsheetGenerate tearsheet PDFs for one or more portfolio companies. Includes single PDF preview or bulk ZIP download of all tearsheets.

Authentication

On first use, Claude will open a browser window asking you to log in with your Carta credentials. This is a one-time OAuth authorization:

  1. You log in with your Carta username and password
  2. Carta issues a secure access token
  3. Claude uses that token for all subsequent queries
  4. Your credentials are not stored by Claude — only the access token is used

If you log out or the token expires, Claude will prompt you to re-authenticate.


Permissions & Data Access

Claude can access fund admin data that your Carta user account has permission to view. This typically includes:

  • Your firm's funds and entities
  • Fund financial records and NAV
  • Partner and investor data for your funds
  • Portfolio company information
  • Journal entries and accounting records

Data is scoped to your firm — you cannot access other firms' data.

If you can't access a fund or data, contact your Carta admin to request access.

Claude will show TVPI, DPI, IRR vs. peer cohort, your percentile ranking, distribution of peer performance, and recommendations based on peer comparison.


Limitations & Considerations

  • Read-only access — Claude cannot create, modify, or delete records or tables
  • Data freshness — Fund Admin data is as current as your Carta records; data is typically refreshed daily or in real-time
  • Query performance — Large queries (e.g., 10 years of daily data for 100+ companies) may take longer
  • Bulk tearsheets — PDF generation for 50+ companies may take several minutes; you'll get a status link to check progress

Support & Next Steps

  • Install the plugin: See the Getting Started guide for installation steps
