Connect an AI assistant (MCP)

Ignix can be driven by an AI assistant. Once connected, you can ask Claude, ChatGPT or a similar assistant things like "plan next week for Instagram", "generate an image for this post and schedule it on Friday at 2pm" or "how did last month go?", and it does the work inside your Ignix account.

There are two ways to connect, and Settings shows both with the exact address.

1) Sign in with Ignix (recommended)

For any assistant that supports remote MCP servers. You add the Ignix address as a connector, the assistant opens Ignix, you sign in, choose the workspace and approve. There is no key to copy or store.

You can revoke that access whenever you want, and an assistant only gets the permissions you approved: read-only access cannot publish.

2) With an API key

For tools that cannot open a browser: automation platforms such as n8n or Make, your own scripts, or a server. Create the key in Settings and send it in the Authorization header. The key belongs to the whole organization and does not expire, so treat it like a password and revoke it if it leaks.

What the assistant can do: publish and schedule on any connected network, generate images with AI, read analytics, work the inbox, create or edit chatbot automations, and manage appointments: see how they are set up, check free slots, book one that came in by phone (the customer gets the confirmation email; a paid service can be booked without charging the customer, for example if they already paid you another way), list the upcoming ones and cancel. The exact tools change as Ignix grows; the full, current list is in "MCP server reference".

From the assistant you can check your store, products, orders and members, create and switch coupons, and — after you confirm — refund an order; and you can list, answer and hide the reviews on your booking page.

Video is the one exception, and it is worth knowing before you ask for one: generating video needs an API key from a provider (Runway, Veo 3, Kling, or HeyGen, Creatify and Synthesia for avatars) added in Settings first. Until someone adds one, the assistant will tell you there is no provider available rather than produce a video. Images need nothing: they are included in your plan. It can also read your posting style — the brand colours, how your posts are built and how you write on each network — so what it writes and designs matches the rest of your feed, and re-derive it from your published posts when it has gone stale. Actions that reach a real person — sending a message, replying to a comment or a review — are marked so your assistant asks you for confirmation first.

What it cannot do: connect or disconnect social accounts, change your plan, or see anything outside the workspace you approved. Products are created and edited in the app.
