Facturolia MCP server

This is a small helper that lets your AI assistant open a European electronic invoice and tell you what is inside it. It works with the common e-invoice formats used in Europe: Factur-X, ZUGFeRD, XRechnung, UBL and CII. It is handy if invoices in these formats land in your inbox and you want a plain-language answer instead of a wall of XML.

What this MCP server does

You point your AI at a file on your computer, either a PDF or an XML invoice. Your AI passes the file to this helper, and the helper sends it to the Facturolia service to be read. Facturolia pulls out the supplier, the customer, the dates, the line items, the VAT and the totals, and checks everything against the European EN 16931 standard. Your AI then tells you, in plain words, what the invoice says and whether anything looks wrong.

What you can do with it

• Read a Factur-X or ZUGFeRD PDF and show what is really inside it
• Check an invoice against the EN 16931 European standard
• Spot when the visible PDF page and the hidden XML data do not match
• List the supplier, customer, dates, lines, VAT and totals from an invoice
• Get just the compliance verdict and any anomalies, without the full detail
• Ask for the answer in French instead of English

Try asking your AI

• “Read ~/Downloads/invoice.pdf and tell me what is in it”
• “Is this invoice correct? Check /Users/me/invoices/F-2026-0148.xml”
• “What is the total including VAT on this Factur-X file?”
• “Does the PDF page match the XML data inside this invoice?”

What it gives back to you

You get back a plain-language summary of the invoice: who issued it, who it is for, the dates, the line items, the VAT breakdown and the totals. You also get the EN 16931 check, which either says no anomalies found or lists what looks wrong. If you only want the verdict, the check tool gives you just the compliance result and the anomalies.
