How to Use the TollGuru Alternative MCP in CrewAI
Autonomous toll cost intelligence for your operations crew with CrewAI and TollGuru Alternative MCP Server.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect TollGuru Alternative MCP to CrewAI
Create your Vinkius account to connect TollGuru Alternative to CrewAI and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Determine tolls from addresses
Assign a specialized agent to the task of calculating costs. The agent uses `calculate_tolls_by_address` to get fuel estimates for trips between two defined points, supporting multi-vehicle types. This is a clean, contained operation. The crew can be set up where Agent A finds the addresses, and Agent B calculates the cost using this tool, ensuring separation of duties and clear action logging.
Analyze encoded routes or GPS tracks
For post-trip billing, use a specialized agent with `calculate_tolls_by_gps` or `calculate_tolls_by_polyline`. The shared memory allows the team to pass raw data (like a polyline) from the research phase directly into the analysis phase. This eliminates human intervention in complex data transfers. A monitor agent watches the data flow, ensuring the correct tool is called with accurate inputs.
Verify toll rates and usage counts
Create a specialized 'Billing Agent' whose sole job is checking costs. It uses `get_toll_rates` for specific lookups or `get_transaction_count` to monitor account status before any calculation runs. This adds an essential pre-check step. The crew can enforce that the usage count must be checked *before* running a trip calculation, making the entire operation self-correcting.
