About Keen MCP Server
Connect your Keen.io project to any AI agent to automate data collection and analysis. This MCP server allows your agent to record events and run complex analytical queries (count, sum, average, etc.) directly from natural language.
The Vercel AI SDK gives every Keen tool full TypeScript type inference, IDE autocomplete, and compile-time error checking. Connect 10 tools through 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
- Event Recording — Send custom event data to any collection in your project instantly
- Compute Metrics — Run aggregation queries like
count,sum, andaverageon your event data - Data Discovery — List all event collections, saved queries, and cached datasets
- Insight Extraction — Retrieve unique values for specific properties to understand data distribution
- Project Oversight — Get comprehensive metadata and configuration details for your Keen project
The Keen 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.
