About Hologram.io MCP Server
Connect your Hologram.io IoT platform to any AI agent and take full control of your global cellular connectivity and device fleet through natural conversation.
The OpenAI Agents SDK auto-discovers all 11 tools from Hologram.io through native MCP integration. Build agents with built-in guardrails, tracing, and handoff patterns. chain multiple agents where one queries Hologram.io, another analyzes results, and a third generates reports, all orchestrated through Vinkius.
What you can do
- Device Oversight — List all IoT devices in your account, retrieve detailed metadata, and monitor their active status.
- SIM Card Management — Access lists of SIM cards (cellular links) and their associated data plans to ensure seamless connectivity.
- Data Usage Monitoring — Retrieve recent data sessions, daily usage statistics, and current billing cycle summaries.
- Connectivity Control — Quickly pause or unpause data services for specific SIM cards directly from the chat interface.
- Location Insights — Access approximate GPS coordinates for your entire fleet based on cell tower triangulation.
- SMS Tracking — Retrieve the history of device-originated SMS messages for troubleshooting and logging.
The Hologram.io MCP Server exposes 11 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to OpenAI Agents SDK in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
