Perplexity

Search and verify fleet availability

Stop jumping between your browser and the charter portal to find open dates. You can query `check_availability` and `list_yachts` to get live status updates on your entire fleet. Claude Desktop displays these results in the chat, letting you confirm if a vessel is free before you commit to a client. It cuts out the manual lookups that usually slow down your day.

Generate quotes in your Claude Desktop chat

Calculate costs for specific charters without opening a calculator or secondary dashboard. Run `get_prices` or `get_offers` to pull real-time pricing data based on the current market rates. Your AI client processes these numbers instantly, so you can send a firm quote to a customer while you are still typing your message. It turns a multi-step task into a single conversation.

Execute bookings through Claude Desktop

Finalize your reservations by invoking `create_booking` directly from your chat interface. You don't need to leave the desktop app to secure a boat or create an option for a waiting client. This MCP Server handles the transaction logic while you stay focused on the conversation. It handles the heavy lifting of data entry so you avoid common typos.
