**What it does**
Multichannel sales engagement platform for email, LinkedIn, call, and SMS outreach with an AI SDR product layered on top.

**AI features, separated from automation with an AI label on it**
"Jason," Reply.io's AI SDR agent, claims to autonomously find prospects, send personalized messages, and manage responses - vendor-stated, genuinely LLM-driven per description but not independently verified. AI-generated icebreakers, first-step emails, and reply categorization are also vendor-claimed AI. Core sequencing/warmup/analytics are plain automation.

**RevOps role**
Multichannel outbound sequencing layer with an AI SDR agent tier positioned as a semi-autonomous prospecting add-on.

**MCP server**

- **Status bucket**: Official MCP

- **Auth**: api key (personal API key over HTTPS, included in free trial)

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

- **Endpoint probe**: did not answer
- **Probed**: 2026-09-04, HTTP None

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 no recorded MCP URL answered.

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.

**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.

A github.com URL already appears somewhere in this entry, which is a seed for that rail and not a measurement of repo health:

- [https://github.com/reply-team/reply-mcp](https://github.com/reply-team/reply-mcp)

**On GitHub**

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**

- [Run an email sequence](../jobs/run-email-sequence.md)

- [Warm up an inbox](../jobs/warm-up-inbox.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**
Vendor states API/webhook access is included across all pricing tiers starting at Standard ($59/mo); some MCP operations consume metered API credits. Site returned HTTP 403 to direct fetch and was retrieved via a read-only proxy - treat pricing figures as slightly less certain than directly-fetched pages. 2026-09-07: GitHub org reply-team, repo reply-mcp; README reads "Reply.io MCP Server - Connect Reply.io to your AI client" and links reply.io and docs.reply.io/reply-mcp (https://github.com/reply-team/reply-mcp).
