Needle MCP integration
Searches your document collections and returns ranked passages with sources, uploads new files, retires stale ones, and syncs local connectors.
16actions available
Three actions you can hand over today
Every action runs live through MCP. Nothing to build, nothing to maintain.
Search collection
Ayro performs semantic search within Needle collections to find the exact document or chunk a customer needs. Results rank by relevance with source references so the answer is both fast and traceable.
Add files to a collection
Ayro uploads new files to a collection so the team can expand the knowledge base mid-conversation. Future customer queries can now reference the newly added materials.
Get collection stats
Ayro retrieves statistics for a collection to show the team how many documents and queries it contains. The team optimizes the collection's scope based on usage patterns.
How businesses use Needle + Ayro
Each card is one request a support team gets, and the Needle actions Ayro runs to close it.
Answer from the team's own documents
Ayro runs a natural language query against a named collection, gets ranked results with source references back, and fetches a signed download URL when the full document is needed.
Search CollectionList CollectionsGet File Download URLAdd a document to the knowledge base mid-conversation
Ayro creates the collection if it does not exist yet, requests signed upload URLs for the content types involved, and adds the files to the collection by URL.
Create CollectionGet File Upload URLAdd Files to a CollectionRetire material that has gone out of date
Ayro pages through the files in a collection, deletes the ones superseded by a newer version, and reads back the document count and index size to confirm what is left.
List Collection FilesDelete Files from a CollectionGet Collection StatsKeep a local folder feeding the index
Ayro sets up a connector that watches folders on a device, adds external files to it by URL, and reads back which connectors are configured and what each one is monitoring.

How it works
Get started in 3 steps
Connect once, then just ask. There is no workflow builder to learn and nothing to maintain — Ayro reads the Needle actions it has and picks the ones a request needs.
Connect Needle
Authorize the Needle account your team already uses — one consent screen, no API keys, no mapping tables. Ayro can only do what you granted that account, and you can disconnect it at any time.
Tell your agent what you need
Describe the job the way you would hand it to a teammate. Ayro maps it to the Needle actions that close it and chains as many as the request needs.
Watch it work
The agent runs the actions inside the conversation the customer is already in, so nobody copies data between tabs and your team can take over at any point.

FAQ
Everything else about Needle
Setup, permissions, and the limits of what Ayro can do inside Needle.
Yes. Search Collection performs semantic search inside a named collection and returns ranked results with source references attached, so Ayro can point at the document a statement came from rather than asserting it. That is what makes the answer checkable by whoever asked.
