Tidio’s Lyro answers customers and can call your own MCP servers (order status, account lookups), escalating to a person when it can’t help.

Confirmed
Confirmed means the vendor documents it (linked). It doesn't mean IonBin has tested it. AI-platform and human steps need no source.
Human approval
People handle escalations and refunds.

Starter prompt
Goal: Resolve routine questions end to end, not just answer FAQs. Tools involved: Tidio. Your part: lyro calls your mcp servers for live data and actions. Work step by step, show me each draft or proposed change, and wait for my approval before anything is sent, published, signed, filed or changed in a live system.

What we checked
Lyro answers from your knowledge base. Tidio says Lyro uses guardrails and your knowledge base for its answers, and you can set handoff and escalation rules so a person takes over high-value or difficult chats.
Lyro and MCP. In Lyro’s Actions & MCPs section you add an MCP server by name and URL, set an authentication method and headers if the server needs them, and choose which of its tools Lyro may use. Changes to the server carry over to the connection without manual edits, and you can test Lyro against the tools before going live.
Plans. The MCP help article doesn’t say which Tidio plans include MCP connections. Check before you build on it.
Set it up
Load your FAQ and help articles into Lyro’s knowledge base first.
Connect one MCP server with read-only tools, such as order status.
Test with real questions, then add actions only where a mistake is cheap to undo.
Keep refunds and account changes with people, and review transcripts weekly.
