Short answer

How can I add new affiliates using AI?

You tell your AI client who to add, and it uses the Referly MCP to create the partner record instantly. You can also ask it to pull a full list of your current partners to check status or details. This setup gives you a direct line to your referral data without touching a dashboard.

Where your data lands

The results of your commands

The AI handles the data entry and retrieval so you don't have to.

AUTOMATION

Instant partner setup

The AI registers new people in your program. You get a new affiliate record without manual form filling.

VISIBILITY

Live partner lists

Ask for a summary of everyone currently in your program. The AI pulls the latest data from your referral platform.

The AI won't delete or change existing partner settings without you explicitly telling it to. You stay in charge of the program logic.

SYNC

Every command you give updates the actual referral database. Your records stay current as you chat.

The workflow

What your AI does when you ask to add a partner.

The AI translates your plain English instructions into specific database actions.

    No. The available tools are limited to creating and listing affiliates.

  • 04

    Will the AI add someone if I don't provide an email?

    It depends on your program requirements, but the AI will usually ask you for the missing information before trying to run the command.

    How do I know if the affiliate was actually added?

    The AI will confirm the action is complete, and you can verify it immediately by asking it to list your affiliates.
