How to Use the Vapi MCP in Vercel AI SDK
Stream Voice AI results directly into your UI with Vercel AI SDK.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Vapi MCP to Vercel AI SDK
Create your Vinkius account to connect Vapi to Vercel AI SDK and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Build real-time voice features with the MCP Server
Your agent uses Vapi to manage calls and transcribe audio. You can call `list_calls` to fetch a list of recent sessions, then use `get_call_details` to pull transcripts and metrics for display in your component. Because the results stream directly into Next.js or React, users see data appear instantly—no loading spinners needed. It just works live.
Configure voice assistants with Vercel AI SDK
Need a new persona? You use `create_assistant` to set up the core configuration for your Voice AI assistant, specifying the model, transcribing service, and voice. This tool ensures the agent behaves exactly how you want it to. The updated settings can be managed later using `update_assistant`, letting you tweak roles or voices without redeploying anything.
Initiate calls from your front end
You don't have to build the phone logic yourself. Use `create_phone_call` when a user needs immediate support, passing in the required number ID and customer details. This tool handles the complex setup for an outbound call. For web interactions, generating a dedicated link is simple with `create_web_call`, giving your users a ready-to-use endpoint.
