Affinda for AI agents
Affinda is an AI document processing platform that extracts structured data from resumes, invoices and other files. Recruiting and back-office teams use it to automate data entry. Connect it once through Arc0, and your agent, or Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, can use it through one MCP endpoint, limited to what each user approved.
What agents do in Affinda.
Extract data from a resume
Pull structured fields like name, skills and work history out of an uploaded resume document.
Search resumes by criteria
Run a resume search against a collection to shortlist candidates matching a role's requirements.
Delete a document collection
Remove an entire collection of processed documents, a destructive action that should be approved before it runs.
119 Affinda actions, graded by risk.
Every Affinda action is tagged read, write or destructive, so one policy covers the whole app and new actions inherit the right default.

Affinda in three steps.
- 01Your users connect AffindaThey add their Affinda api key on Arc0 Connect, under your brand. It goes straight into the vault.
- 02You set the rulesReads run, writes like “create Tag” can wait for the user, and “delete Tag” can be denied outright.
- 03Any agent can actYour agent calls Affinda through the Arc0 SDK or MCP, and so can Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor. Every call lands on the audit log.
await arc0.policies.set('affinda', { read: 'allow', write: 'ask', // create_tag destructive: 'deny', // delete_tag }) # Claude Code: the same connection, one URL $ claude mcp add --transport http arc0 \ https://mcp.arc0.ai/u/u_8f2
How Affinda connects.
Users add their Affinda api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.
The same Affinda connection serves your agent over MCP and your own backend over REST and the proxy, so a user connects once. How Arc0 handles credentials →
- AUTH
- API key
- CREDENTIALS
- Per-tenant encrypted vault
- MODEL SEES
- Results only, never credentials
- AUDIT LOG
- Every call, on every plan
Use Affinda from any agent.
Affinda and Arc0, answered.
Can I use Affinda with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?
Yes. Connect Affinda to Arc0 once, then add your Arc0 MCP URL to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or any other remote-MCP client. Each assistant only gets the Affinda actions you allow.
How do users connect Affinda?
Users add their Affinda api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.
Which Affinda actions can my agent take?
119 in total: 50 read, 51 write and 18 destructive, such as “create Tag”. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.
Can I stop my agent from deleting things in Affinda?
Yes. Actions like “delete Tag” are graded destructive. Set destructive actions to deny, or to ask so the user approves each one, and blocked calls still show up on the audit log.
Can my own backend call Affinda too?
Yes. The same Affinda connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
Plug Affinda into your agent.
Your users connect Affinda once, under your brand. Your agent gets 119 actions behind your policies, with every call on the record.
