**What it does**
A relationship-intelligence CRM for deal teams that auto-builds the contact graph from email and calendar activity and scores relationship strength, rather than relying on reps to log activity.

**AI features, separated from automation with an AI label on it**
Semantic search across companies and people, relationship-strength scoring, and meeting-transcript retrieval. The contact-graph construction itself is automation over mail and calendar metadata, not AI.

**RevOps role**
System of record for relationship-driven pipelines, primarily private capital, with warm-path discovery layered on top of the CRM itself.

**MCP server**

- **Status bucket**: Official MCP

- **Auth**: OAuth where the client supports it, otherwise an API key. Local deployment is API key only. All MCP queries inherit the connecting user's existing Affinity permissions.

- **Parsed URLs**: 2 found in the mcp_url field

The vendor ships and maintains the server itself. A wrapper built by Zapier, Composio or a similar third party does not count as official. The status was established on 2026-08-25 and has not been re-fetched since.

**API documentation**

[https://support.affinity.co/s/article/Getting-started-with-Affinity-MCP](https://support.affinity.co/s/article/Getting-started-with-Affinity-MCP)

No documentation text is reproduced anywhere on this site. Read the vendor page for the prose. The structured docs digest specced in SPEC section 3 has not been built or crawled: docs_digest is null on every entry in this build.

**GitHub health**

Not measured. github_url, github_stars, github_last_commit and github_archived are null on every entry in this build.

The refresh rail specced in SPEC section 7.2 has not been run. An unstamped star count is a lie, so nothing is shown rather than something stale.

**Jobs it can do**

- [Discover warm intro paths](../jobs/discover-warm-intro-paths.md)
- [Fetch a call transcript](../jobs/fetch-call-transcript.md)
- [Read CRM records](../jobs/read-crm-records.md)
- [Write CRM records](../jobs/write-crm-records.md)

A job tag means the vendor says the tool does this. It is not a test result, not proof the capability is reachable through the tool's MCP server, and not proof it is available on the gate this entry records.

Tagged by machine-pass on 2026-08-25 against the closed 55 job vocabulary. 271 of 293 entries carry at least one tag; 827 tags are assigned in total.

**Notes, verbatim from the file**
Added 2026-08-25 in the coverage sweep. API and MCP access are restricted to the Scale, Advanced and Enterprise tiers; lower tiers cannot use it at all. Launched in beta in 2026 with roughly 33 read and write tools. TRANSFERABILITY CAVEAT: Affinity is aimed at VC, PE and investment banking rather than classic B2B SaaS sales, so the relationship-strength model is tuned for a different motion than most of this directory. Included because the auto-built relationship graph is the same job Centralize (05) and The Swarm (01) do, approached from a third direction, and the three together are a coherent lane.
