About TomTom MCP Server
Connect your TomTom API account directly to any AI agent to unlock enterprise-grade geospatial and logistical capabilities native to your platform. Convert complex addresses instantly, evaluate driving routes based on exact origin and destination coordinates, and visualize live traffic blocks directly through chat queries.
Claude Code registers TomTom as an MCP server in a single terminal command. Once connected, Claude Code discovers all 10 tools at runtime and can call them headlessly. ideal for CI/CD pipelines, cron jobs, and automated workflows where TomTom data drives decisions without human intervention.
What you can do
- Precision Geocoding — Process any physical address string into absolute geographic latitude/longitude coordinates using fuzzy logic or structured fields, as well as reversing coordinates back to plain street names
- Route Computation — Calculate the exact travel time, polyline geometry, and distance for a trip between two precise coordinates
- Real-Time Traffic — Map traffic incidents (accidents, constructions, jams) constrained within a bounding box, or survey the traffic flow speed of a particular avenue segment
- Poi Discovery — Find global Points of Interest based on categories (e.g., hospitals, fuel) and retrieve rich contact metadata or opening hours for specific locations
- Travel Boundaries — Calculate reachable ranges (polygonal limits) to understand exactly how far your fleet or agents can travel within a set time budget
The TomTom MCP Server exposes 10 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Claude Code in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
