About Scale AI MCP Server
Connect your Scale AI account to any AI agent to orchestrate large-scale data labeling and fine-tuning pipelines through natural conversation.
LlamaIndex agents combine Scale AI tool responses with indexed documents for comprehensive, grounded answers. Connect 11 tools through Vinkius and query live data alongside vector stores and SQL databases in a single turn. ideal for hybrid search, data enrichment, and analytical workflows.
What you can do
- Project Management — Create and configure projects for specific labeling types like image annotation or semantic segmentation.
- Batch Operations — Organize high-volume work into batches and finalize them to trigger the labeling process.
- Multi-Modal Tasks — Submit tasks for Image Annotation, Semantic Segmentation, and Video Playback directly via API.
- Task Lifecycle — Retrieve detailed status of individual tasks or cancel pending ones to manage your budget and throughput.
- Parameter Tuning — Update project-level instructions and parameters dynamically to refine labeling quality.
The Scale AI MCP Server exposes 11 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to LlamaIndex in under two minutes — credentials fully managed, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
