About GoTab MCP Server
Connect your GoTab POS and commerce account to your AI agent and streamline your hospitality management. Use natural language to update menu items, check the status of active tabs, and monitor real-time orders directly from your workflow.
Google ADK natively supports GoTab as an MCP tool provider — declare the Vinkius Edge URL and the framework handles discovery, validation, and execution automatically. Combine 12 tools with Gemini's long-context reasoning for complex multi-tool workflows, with production-ready session management and evaluation built in.
What you can do
- Menu & Item Management — List all menus, browse categories, and instantly update the availability status of specific items (e.g., mark as 'sold out')
- Order Tracking — Retrieve recent orders, view specific order details, and monitor kitchen operations without opening the GoTab manager dashboard
- Tab Management — Check active or closed tabs to help resolve customer inquiries quickly
- Location Insights — Manage multiple venues by querying specific location data easily
The GoTab MCP Server exposes 12 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Google ADK in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
