Can Lyro publish or write anything back to Perigon?

No. All nine connected actions retrieve - articles, stories, topics, media sources, companies, journalists, and Wikipedia pages. Perigon is a read source here, so nothing Lyro does changes data on the Perigon side.

When does Lyro use vector search instead of the article filters?

Get News Articles is the right call when the question names keywords, a source, or a date range. Vector Search Articles matches semantically similar coverage from a natural language query, so it handles the questions where the customer's wording and the article's wording do not overlap.

What is the difference between a Perigon story and an article?

Get Stories returns clusters of articles covering the same event, with aggregate metrics attached. That matters in a conversation: one clustered story summarises an event once instead of Lyro reading back forty near-identical wire pieces.

Whose Perigon quota do these lookups consume?

Yours. Every call runs against the Perigon API key you connect, so retrievals count against your own Perigon plan and are scoped to whatever that key is entitled to fetch.

How businesses use Perigon + Lyro

Each card is one request a support team gets, and the Perigon actions Lyro runs to close it.

Answer a current-events question from sourced articles
Lyro filters Perigon's article index by keyword, source, and date range, and can list the available topics first so the query is scoped to the category the question actually belongs to.
Get News ArticlesGet TopicsGet Media Sources
Find coverage the keywords would have missed
Vector search matches on meaning rather than exact wording, so a loosely phrased question still returns relevant articles, grouped into the story cluster covering that event.
Vector Search ArticlesGet StoriesGet News Articles
Look up the company or the byline behind a story
Lyro pulls a company from Perigon's entity database or a journalist profile with title, bio, location, and Twitter handle, so a research question gets an identified subject rather than a name in a headline.
Get CompaniesGet JournalistsGet Media Sources
Add background the news coverage assumes
Semantic and filtered Wikipedia retrieval gives Lyro the reference context behind an unfamiliar entity, so an answer can explain what something is before reporting what just happened to it.

How it works

Get started in 3 steps

Connect once, then just ask. There is no workflow builder to learn and nothing to maintain — Lyro reads the Perigon actions it has and picks the ones a request needs.

01
Connect Perigon
Authorize the Perigon account your team already uses — one consent screen, no API keys, no mapping tables. Lyro can only do what you granted that account, and you can disconnect it at any time.
02
Tell your agent what you need
Describe the job the way you would hand it to a teammate. Lyro maps it to the Perigon actions that close it and chains as many as the request needs.
03
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.
