Run gifting campaigns in Claude Desktop

Launch targeted gifting initiatives directly from your chat. Use `create_gifting_campaign` to define your parameters and `launch_gifting_campaign` to set them live without leaving your workspace. Your agent manages the heavy lifting. It executes orders, tracks status, and handles the logistics of physical deliveries automatically.

Curate gifts for every recipient

Get high-quality gift suggestions tailored to your members. Call `list_curated_gift_options` to pull live recommendations based on specific profiles. This MCP Server ensures you send relevant items every time. It avoids the generic junk that usually ends up in the trash.

Keep member data current

Manage your recipient list with precision. Use `get_member_details` to verify individual preferences or `list_gifting_members` to audit your entire database. Everything stays in sync. When you update a member, your agent reflects those changes immediately across every active campaign.
