# Community Class Planner AI Agent Connect > Community Class Planner MCP handles the math and logistics for your educational workshops and courses. It lets your AI client calculate profit margins, find your break-even enrollment numbers, check venue capacity, and estimate material costs. Instead of manual spreadsheets, you just tell your agent the class details and get instant financial and operational answers. ## Overview - **Category:** finance - **Price:** Free - **Endpoint:** https://edge.vinkius.com/vk_preview_DwWwRO1kxs6jV5QbYClHIsjW8h8ddF1ORBTH5wZo/ai-agent-connect - **Tags:** enrollment, budgeting, planning, profit-loss, capacity ## Description Running community classes involves a lot of moving parts that can quickly eat into your margins. You have to balance instructor fees, room rentals, and material costs against student enrollment. This MCP gives your AI client the specific tools needed to manage those variables without you having to build custom spreadsheets every time you launch a new course. You can use it to run quick financial checks before you even announce a class. If you aren't sure if a $40 price point is viable, your agent can run the numbers to see how many students you actually need to cover your overhead. It also helps prevent logistical headaches by checking if your planned enrollment fits within your venue's limits. It's a practical way to ensure your community programs stay financially stable and operationally sound. ## Tools ### get_material_budget This tool calculates the total cost of supplies needed for your students.
