Key Capabilities
Index ReferralHero subscriber lists using LlamaIndex
Stop writing SQL queries to find out who your top referrers are. This MCP Server lets your LlamaIndex agent fetch active users with `list_subscribers` and index their profiles directly into your vector store. Once indexed, you can run semantic queries to find patterns among your most active promoters. The agent combines live data from `get_leaderboard` with your indexed documents to give you real-time insights into campaign performance.
Build RAG pipelines grounded in ReferralHero campaign data
Feed live campaign structures into your query engine. By calling `get_list` and `get_rewards`, your LlamaIndex RAG application can answer user questions about current incentives with absolute accuracy. The agent retrieves the current rules directly from the API instead of relying on outdated training data. When a user asks what they get for referring a friend, the query engine pulls live data from this MCP Server to respond.
Query live referral transactions using LlamaIndex agents
Give your support agents a search tool that actually understands context. By wrapping `list_transactions` and `get_subscriber` in LlamaIndex tool specs, your agent can resolve referral disputes in seconds. When a customer asks why their points haven't updated, the agent queries the vector store, runs a live lookup via `get_subscriber`, and updates their balance using `add_points` if a discrepancy is found.
