Page: alternatives/sap-concur.html

## Ramp

Corporate cards, expenses, and bill pay with a $0 plan, an official remote MCP, and a CLI with an agentic-purchase skill.

- Listing: apps/ramp.html
- JSON: apps/ramp.json
- License: Closed source
- Agent interface: MCP server, from the builder
- Reach: 8 of 10 jobs
- Last activity: unknown
- Agent cannot reach: Approve bills
- Use it when: we run our cards and expenses on Ramp's free plan and want the agent to code last week's transactions and chase missing receipts before the QuickBooks sync
- Use it when: we want an agent to buy a scoped item once with a merchant-locked card instead of sharing a company card number
- Gotcha: US businesses only; card approval is an underwriting step, not a signup
- Gotcha: Custom MCP clients need redirect-URI allowlisting through Ramp support before production; the shared Ramp OAuth client must be used
- Gotcha: Read-write sessions expire 24 hours after last use; admins control MCP access per employee under Integrations
- Gotcha: CLI is built on api.ramp.com/agent-tools, which is closed to external clients

## Expensify

Expense reports and SmartScan receipts with an official read-only MCP Search tool.

- Listing: apps/expensify.html
- JSON: apps/expensify.json
- License: Closed source
- Agent interface: MCP server, from the builder
- Reach: 4 of 9 jobs
- Last activity: unknown
- Agent cannot reach: Scan a receipt into an expense; Approve reports; Edit expenses; Reimburse payments; Manage workspace settings and accounting export
- Use it when: we already file expenses in Expensify and want the agent to answer what was spent, by whom, and what is still unapproved without giving it write access
- Use it when: we want month-end spend summaries pulled into a board note from the receipts and reports we already have
- Gotcha: Read-only: no approvals, edits, or reimbursements through the official MCP; BilalAtique/expensify-mcp adds writes as a third-party wrapper
- Gotcha: Company workspaces are paid; free Submit plan is per individual
- Gotcha: Two endpoint hosts appear in vendor material (www.expensify.com/mcp in the help article, mcp.expensify.com in sourcing); confirm which is current
- Gotcha: Pricing page could not be read during analysis; Collect and Control prices unconfirmed
