Short answer

How do I update contact records with my AI?

Your AI client uses the Agile CRM MCP to fetch existing contact data and push new information or meeting notes back to the profile. This keeps your CRM accurate based on your natural language instructions. You'll see the results reflected in your Agile CRM dashboard immediately.
