Instead of logging into a separate dashboard, digging through folders, and copy-pasting data into your chat, you just ask your AI. This Connector bridges that gap by giving your agent direct eyes into Lancerkit. You can have your agent pull up a full list of active projects, grab the billing status for a specific invoice, or summarize the time logs for a client. It turns your AI into a project coordinator that actually knows your business data. Whether you're pulling a list of all billable services or checking the connection status of your workspace, this integration keeps your focus on the work. It's one of the many specialized tools you can find in the Vinkius catalog to make your agent feel less like a generic chatbot and more like a teammate who knows your CRM inside out. ## Tools ### get_client Pull specific metadata for a single client.
