Connect Birdeye MCP to Windsurf
Create your Vinkius account to connect Birdeye to Windsurf and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Cascade-driven review response loops
Let Cascade handle negative feedback before you even open your browser. When a new low-rating post lands, your editor can pull details using `list_reviews` and grab the customer's history via `get_contact` to understand the situation. Instead of waiting for manual input, Cascade drafts a professional response using `reply_to_review` based on past successful interactions. It chains these steps in one run, letting you approve the final post right in your editor.
Automate customer check-ins directly in Windsurf
When your build succeeds or a ticket closes, Cascade can instantly trigger follow-up flows. The agent calls `checkin_customer` to queue up a review request the second a customer interaction wraps up. You don't have to copy-paste data between platforms. This Birdeye MCP connection lets your IDE read local workspace events and immediately update contact records with `list_contacts` to keep marketing lists fresh.
Multi-location reputation monitoring
Keep tabs on how all your branches are performing without leaving your workspace. Cascade queries `list_locations` to map out your business footprint and pulls performance data with `get_review_summary`. If a specific branch shows a dip in ratings, the agent pulls the exact survey replies using `get_survey_responses`. This lets you spot local service issues and fix them before they hurt your search rankings.
