Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Fountain MCP to Pydantic AI
Create your Vinkius account to connect Fountain to Pydantic AI and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Fetch Validated Applicants
Pulling candidate records relies on the `get_applicant` and `list_applicant_notes` tools. Your agent retrieves the raw profile data and any recruiter feedback attached to the file. It gets the exact history of that candidate. Pydantic AI forces this data into strict schemas at runtime. If the API returns a string where an integer should be, the agent fails loudly. You never end up with corrupted applicant profiles polluting your downstream systems.
Pydantic AI Interview Tracking
Tracking scheduled conversations and successful hires uses the `list_interview_sessions` and `list_workers` tools. The system pulls interview times and matches them against the roster of active employees. It calculates conversion rates based on hard numbers. Model-agnostic execution means you run this logic anywhere. You might use OpenAI for complex interview analysis and a local model for basic worker counting. The Fountain MCP Server responds exactly the same way regardless of the LLM driving it.
Audit Funnel Configuration
Auditing your pipeline setup requires the `list_funnels`, `list_funnel_stages`, and `get_account_details` operations. The agent maps out your entire organizational structure and hiring workflow. It checks that your funnels align with corporate standards. Connecting this via the unified `MCPToolset` approach keeps your code clean. You point the toolset at the HTTP endpoint, and Pydantic AI handles the rest. The integration stays stable even as your hiring processes evolve.
