# Invoice Profitability Planner AI Agent Connect > Invoice Profitability Planner MCP gives your AI client the math it needs to handle complex job costing. It calculates net profit by factoring in labor, materials, contractor fees, business expenses, transaction fees, and taxes. Instead of guessing your margins, you can use it to compare project performance or figure out exactly what to bill to hit a specific profit goal. ## Overview - **Category:** finance - **Price:** Free - **Endpoint:** https://edge.vinkius.com/vk_preview_ozZxoH262Ami12x5r2UwOnonjec3uwb8c1zW0CwI/ai-agent-connect - **Tags:** profit, margin, invoice, tax, revenue ## Description Stop guessing if a job is actually making money. This MCP turns your AI client into a precise financial analyst that understands the difference between gross revenue and what actually hits your bank account. You can feed it raw invoice data and get a clear picture of your margins after accounting for every variable, from material costs to tax obligations. If you are looking at a new contract, you can use it to work backward from a target profit to find your required billing amount. If you have a pile of completed jobs, you can run them through the MCP to see which ones are high performers and which ones are draining your resources. It handles the heavy lifting of calculating percentage distributions for your expenses, so you can see exactly where your money is going relative to your revenue. It is built for anyone who needs to make data-driven decisions about pricing and project management without manually building spreadsheets for every single invoice. ## Tools ### compare_project_margins This tool compares the profitability of different invoices.
