Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Braze MCP to Vercel AI SDK
Create your Vinkius account to connect Braze to Vercel AI SDK and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Stream Braze campaign data into Vercel AI SDK
Feed live `list_campaigns` results directly into your React components. Your users see active growth metrics as the agent pulls them from the backend. This MCP Server pushes data through your existing stream pipes. You avoid the lag of traditional API calls.
Trigger journeys with Vercel AI SDK
Call `trigger_canvas` from your edge functions based on live user inputs. Your application initiates complex customer journeys without leaving the code base. Everything happens via your standard tool definitions. The interface stays responsive while the background task runs.
Manage user identities via Vercel AI SDK
Use `identify_user` to merge aliases to external IDs inside your auth flow. You keep your CRM records clean without manual database updates. Your application handles user mapping in real-time. This keeps your profile data consistent across every session.
