**What it does**
Managed ELT pipeline platform; for GTM purposes, the relevant piece is its Salesforce/HubSpot/Marketo/Outreach/Salesloft/Gong/Zendesk connectors that land CRM and GTM-tool data in a warehouse, plus (post-Census) its "Activations" reverse-ETL product for pushing data back out to those same tools.

**AI features, separated from automation with an AI label on it**
Mostly plain data pipeline - the AI positioning is largely about being "AI-ready" infrastructure for downstream agents rather than AI inside the product itself. The one genuinely agentic piece is the official MCP server, which lets an AI assistant query/manage connections conversationally - that is real, not just marketing.

**RevOps role**
Core data-plumbing layer of a RevOps stack - lands CRM/marketing/sales-engagement data into the warehouse and, via Activations, pushes it back out so it can be modeled and reused across GTM tools.

**MCP server**

- **Status bucket**: Official MCP

- **Auth**: API key + API secret via env vars, generated from the Fivetran dashboard. Scoped permission tiers (read / read-write / read-write-delete) with a configurable disallowed-actions carve-out; confirms with the user before write/delete operations.

- **Parsed URLs**: 1 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 2026-08-24 and has not been re-fetched since.

mcp_status, verbatim from the file:

official

mcp_url, verbatim from the file:

https://github.com/fivetran/fivetran-mcp

- [https://github.com/fivetran/fivetran-mcp](https://github.com/fivetran/fivetran-mcp)

**Access gate**

- **Gate bucket**: Free to start

- **Can a solo operator reach it**: Yes, without talking to anyone

api_gate, verbatim from the file:

free - the REST API is available on all Fivetran plans including the free trial; the Free plan is self-serve (500K MAR/mo for connections, 3,500 MAR for activations, 5,000 MMR for transformations, no payment info required).

**API documentation**

No documentation URL recorded.

263 of 293 entries are in the same position. Blank is legal and it is published as blank.

**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.

A github.com URL already appears somewhere in this entry, which is a seed for that rail and not a measurement of repo health:

- [https://github.com/fivetran/fivetran-mcp](https://github.com/fivetran/fivetran-mcp)

**Jobs it can do**

- [Sync records between systems](../jobs/sync-records-between-systems.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.
