**What it does**
A CRM built around a flexible, user-defined data model (not fixed contact/company/deal objects) with real-time sync and an API-first architecture.

**AI features, separated from automation with an AI label on it**
Confirmed AI surface is thin in what's publicly documented - automatic data enrichment and meeting-intelligence tooling are mentioned as part of the MCP tool surface, but no distinct named AI-agent product on the scale of Agentforce or Breeze was found; treated as unconfirmed rather than asserted.

**RevOps role**
A newer, flexible-schema CRM competing for data-team/startup RevOps stacks that want customizable record objects; one of the cleaner "log in with your own account, no API key" MCP implementations found in this research.

**MCP server**

- **Status bucket**: Official MCP

- **Auth**: OAuth - one-time login as the user's own Attio account, no API key needed. Reads auto-approve; writes require confirmation. Permissions mirror whatever the logged-in user already has in the workspace.

- **Parsed URLs**: 2 found in the mcp_url field

- **Endpoint probe**: docs page, not an endpoint
- **Docs URL**: [https://docs.attio.com/mcp/overview](https://docs.attio.com/mcp/overview)
- **Probed**: 2026-09-04, HTTP 200

The vendor ships and maintains the server itself. A wrapper built by Zapier, Composio or a similar third party does not count as official. The status was established by hand on 2026-09-07. On 2026-09-04 the recorded URL served a documentation page, not an MCP endpoint. That is where to read about the server, not where to connect to it. An agent needs the second.

**What this server exposes**

- **Tools named**: 41
- **Strongest evidence**: in the vendor docs

A tool below is one the server NAMES. Nobody has called it. That is the same two tier honesty rule the rest of the directory runs on: a named tool is research, and BENCH-TESTED stays the only claim that anybody ran anything.

141 of the 741 entries that record an official or community MCP server carry a harvested tool list. The other 600 are unmeasured, which is not the same as empty. Harvest last run 2026-09-27. Every name across every server is on the [tools index](../tools-index.md).

**Command line**

- **Binary**: attio
- **Status**: official CLI, first party
- **Strongest evidence**: npm
- **Harvested**: 2026-09-27

Install, as the source shows it:

```
npm install -g attio
```

quoted from [https://www.npmjs.com/package/attio](https://www.npmjs.com/package/attio) on 2026-09-27, via npm

Packages seen, with the version on 2026-09-27:

- [npm: attio 1.1.2](https://www.npmjs.com/package/attio)
- [pypi: attio 0.24.0, third party](https://pypi.org/project/attio/)

A CLI being listed means the harvest found an install command or a package on a stated date. Nobody has run it. Every command is quoted verbatim from the URL beneath it. Harvest date 2026-09-27.

**Access gate**

- **Gate bucket**: Free to start

- **Can a solo operator reach it**: Yes, without talking to anyone

api_gate, verbatim from the file:

free - the Free plan (up to 3 seats) includes API access, rate-limited (~1,000 calls/hour). Paid tiers: Plus $29/user/mo, Pro $69/user/mo, Enterprise custom.

**API documentation**

No documentation URL recorded.

727 of 1252 entries are in the same position. Blank is legal and it is published as blank.

**GitHub health**

Not measured. github_url, github_stars, github_last_commit and github_archived are null on every entry in this build.

The refresh rail specced in SPEC section 7.2 has not been run. An unstamped star count is a lie, so nothing is shown rather than something stale.

**On GitHub**

[github.com/attio](https://github.com/attio) tied to the vendor by rule 3, account website https://attio.com has the vendor's domain, confidence strong

- **Public repositories**: 19, forks excluded, as read on 2026-09-08
- **Mention MCP**: 0 of them
- **Look like CLIs**: 0 of them
- **Latest push**: 2026-09-07

The five most recently pushed, on 2026-09-08:

Kind is a heuristic guessed from the repository name, topics and description, not a fact the vendor stated. A repository count is activity, not a verdict. Read 2026-09-08.

**Jobs it can do**

- [Read CRM records](../jobs/read-crm-records.md)
- [Write CRM records](../jobs/write-crm-records.md)

A job tag means the vendor says the tool does this. It is not a test result, not proof the capability is reachable through the tool's MCP server, and not proof it is available on the gate this entry records.

Tagged by machine-pass on 2026-08-25 against the closed 56 job vocabulary. 271 of 1,252 entries carry at least one tag; 849 tags are assigned in total.

**Notes, verbatim from the file**
Community/unofficial Attio MCP servers also exist (e.g. kesslerio/attio-mcp-server) and are separate from the official mcp.attio.com hosted server linked above. 2026-09-07: https://mcp.attio.com/mcp returned 401 to an MCP initialize POST (https://mcp.attio.com/mcp).
