Connect Your AI Assistant to Quick Release

Talk to Quick Release#

You can now connect an AI assistant such as Claude directly to your Quick Release account. Once connected, you can simply ask things like:

• “Which flights still have free spots this weekend?”
• “Register a booking for the Peeters family, 4 adults, for Saturday evening.”
• “Create a gift voucher for 2 adults, reference GR0125, paid by wire transfer.”
• “Move booking X to the Friday morning flight.”

The assistant looks up your real flights, locations, balloons and regions, and performs the action for you — no more switching between windows to copy details across.

What it can and cannot do#

The connection uses the same operations as our existing website integrations: viewing flights, locations, balloons and regions, looking up bookings and vouchers, creating bookings and vouchers, scheduling flights, and assigning bookings to flights.

It cannot touch anything else — no settings, no payments, no messages, no deleting. And it only sees your own operation’s data, never another operator’s.

Built-in safety limits#

AI assistants sometimes get carried away. To protect you against accidents, the connection:

• Blocks accidental duplicates — if the assistant tries to create the same booking or voucher twice within a few minutes, the second attempt is stopped.
• Limits the pace of changes — no more than a handful of write actions per minute, so a misunderstood instruction can’t flood your planning with dozens of bookings before you notice.

When a limit is reached, the assistant is told to stop and check with you first.

How to set it up#

1. In Quick Release, go to Settings → API and copy your API key (or generate one).
2. Add the Quick Release connection to your assistant. For Claude Desktop, add this to your configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "quick-release": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@quick-release/mcp"],
      "env": {
        "QR_API_KEY": "paste-your-key-here"
      }
    }
  }
}

3. Restart the assistant — you’ll see the Quick Release tools appear.

The full setup guide, including all available operations and configuration options, is in the MCP integration documentation.

Treat your API key like a password: anyone who has it can manage your bookings. If it ever leaks, generate a new one in Settings → API.

Happy flights!
