What is the Loopio MCP Server?
Connect your Loopio RFP management platform to your AI agent to transform proposal workflows into intelligent, conversational processes.
What you can do
- Browse Projects — List all your active RFPs, RFIs, and security questionnaires. Check progress, due dates, and completion status at a glance.
- Search the Knowledge Library — Query your master library of pre-approved answers. Find exactly what you need before drafting new responses.
- Review Questionnaire Responses — Fetch individual questions and their current answers from any project. Track what has been answered and what still needs attention.
- Create New Submissions — Spin up new RFP projects instantly with name, deadline, company context, and owner assignment.
- Manage Teams — List team members to identify who is available for project assignments and collaboration.
How it works
- Add this integration to your workspace.
- Provide your Loopio Access Token from Settings -> API.
- Chat with your RFP data using Claude, Cursor, or any compatible AI agent.
Who is this for?
- Proposal Managers — ask the agent to search the library for approved answers about 'SOC 2 compliance' and instantly pull them into an active project.
- Sales Teams — have the agent list all overdue RFPs, check their completion percentage, and identify which ones need immediate attention.
- Security & Compliance — query existing security questionnaire responses to ensure consistency across vendor assessments without reinventing the wheel.
Built-in capabilities (8)
Requires a project name. Optionally accepts a description, company name, due date, project type, and owner ID. The project will be created in "Not Started" status and ready for team collaboration. Create a new RFP project/submission in Loopio

Each project represents an active RFP response or questionnaire. Use this to discover all ongoing and recent response initiatives. Optionally limit results with the limit parameter. List all Loopio projects (RFPs, RFIs, questionnaires) in your workspace
Each entry represents a question from an RFP, RFI, or security questionnaire that needs to be answered. Use this to understand the scope of a project and track which questions have been answered. List all questionnaire entries (questions) for a specific Loopio project
Use this to identify who is assigned to projects, find user IDs for assigning project ownership, or understand team composition. List all team members in your Loopio workspace
This is the primary way to find existing approved responses before drafting new answers. You can refine results with optional filters like tags, category, stack, and whether to search in questions or answers. Always use this before creating new library entries. Search the Loopio knowledge library for approved Q&A entries
Why CrewAI?
When paired with CrewAI, Loopio becomes a first-class tool in your multi-agent workflows. Each agent in the crew can call Loopio tools autonomously, one agent queries data, another analyzes results, a third compiles reports, all orchestrated through Vinkius with zero configuration overhead.
- —
Multi-agent collaboration lets you decompose complex workflows into specialized roles, one agent researches, another analyzes, a third generates reports, each with access to MCP tools
- —
CrewAI's native MCP integration requires zero adapter code: pass Vinkius Edge URL directly in the
mcpsparameter and agents auto-discover every available tool at runtime - —
Built-in task delegation and shared memory mean agents can pass context between steps without manual state management, enabling multi-hop reasoning across tool calls
- —
Sequential and hierarchical crew patterns map naturally to real-world workflows: enumerate subdomains → analyze DNS history → check WHOIS records → compile findings into actionable reports

Frequently asked questions
What authentication does Loopio require and where do I get my token?
Loopio uses OAuth2 with Bearer token authentication. You need to generate an access token from your Loopio account under Settings -> API. The token provides secure, scoped access to your projects, libraries, and team data.
Can the AI agent search and retrieve approved answers from my Loopio library?
Yes. The search_library tool lets the agent query your master knowledge base using natural language. It searches across question text, answer text, and tags, returning the most relevant approved entries with their full content. This ensures your AI responses are always based on pre-approved, accurate information.
Can I create new RFP projects programmatically through the AI agent?
Absolutely. The create_submission tool allows the agent to spin up new Loopio projects with a name, description, company context, due date, and assigned owner. The project is created in 'Not Started' status and ready for immediate team collaboration and answer drafting.
How do I track the progress of active RFPs across my workspace?
Use list_projects to see all active initiatives with their current status, then drill into any project with get_project to check completion percentage, due dates, and ownership. You can also use list_questionnaires to see every individual question and which ones still need answers.
How does CrewAI discover and connect to MCP tools?
CrewAI connects to MCP servers lazily. when the crew starts, each agent resolves its MCP URLs and fetches the tool catalog via the standard tools/list method. This means tools are always fresh and reflect the server's current capabilities. No tool schemas need to be hardcoded.
Can different agents in the same crew use different MCP servers?
Yes. Each agent has its own mcps list, so you can assign specific servers to specific roles. For example, a reconnaissance agent might use a domain intelligence server while an analysis agent uses a vulnerability database server.
What happens when an MCP tool call fails during a crew run?
CrewAI wraps tool failures as context for the agent. The LLM receives the error message and can decide to retry with different parameters, fall back to a different tool, or mark the task as partially complete. This resilience is critical for production workflows.
Can CrewAI agents call multiple MCP tools in parallel?
CrewAI agents execute tool calls sequentially within a single reasoning step. However, you can run multiple agents in parallel using process=Process.parallel, each calling different MCP tools concurrently. This is ideal for workflows where separate data sources need to be queried simultaneously.
Can I run CrewAI crews on a schedule (cron)?
Yes. CrewAI crews are standard Python scripts, so you can invoke them via cron, Airflow, Celery, or any task scheduler. The crew.kickoff() method runs synchronously by default, making it straightforward to integrate into existing pipelines.
MCP tools not discovered
Ensure the Edge URL is correct. CrewAI connects lazily when the crew starts. check console output.
Agent not using tools
Make the task description specific. Instead of "do something", say "Use the available tools to list contacts".
Timeout errors
CrewAI has a 10s connection timeout by default. Ensure your network can reach the Edge URL.
Rate limiting or 429 errors
Vinkius enforces per-token rate limits. Check your subscription tier and request quota in the dashboard. Upgrade if you need higher throughput.
