## Description

You can stop manually calculating group rates and checking tier limits. This MCP gives your AI client the ability to act as a pricing specialist for ticketed events. When you're planning a group outing or managing event logistics, your agent can pull the current pricing structure to see which tiers are active. It handles the heavy lifting of determining the unit price for a specific headcount and then sums up the total cost for the entire group. If you're unsure if a group is too small or too large for a specific booking, the agent can run a validation check against the set attendee requirements. It's a direct way to move from a headcount to a final price without jumping between spreadsheets and calculators.
