About Brivo MCP Server
Connect your Brivo Access account to any AI agent and orchestrate your physical security, facility management, and user provisioning workflows through natural conversation.
The Vercel AI SDK gives every Brivo tool full TypeScript type inference, IDE autocomplete, and compile-time error checking. Connect 10 tools through the Vinkius and stream results progressively to React, Svelte, or Vue components — works on Edge Functions, Cloudflare Workers, and any Node.js runtime.
What you can do
- Door Control & Status — List all access points, check their live status (open/closed/locked), and trigger momentary unlocks directly from your workspace.
- User Provisioning — List and retrieve detailed profiles for all users and manage their access groups and credentials.
- Event Monitoring — Retrieve real-time or historical access events and security alarms to ensure facility safety.
- Credential Oversight — List and audit physical and digital credentials (cards, mobile passes) assigned to users.
- Schedule Coordination — Access time schedules used for automated locking and unlocking of your facility.
The Brivo MCP Server exposes 10 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Vercel AI SDK in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
