Show users live VAT validation data using Vercel AI SDK.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect VATNode MCP to Vercel AI SDK
Create your Vinkius account to connect VATNode 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.
Check API usage stats instantly.
See exactly how much of your allocated quota you've used by calling `get_api_usage`. This keeps the user informed about rate limits right on the frontend. Streaming this data means users don't wait for a full page refresh. They see the usage metrics appear in real-time as the AI processes the request.
Verify VAT numbers and get company details.
Use `validate_vat_number` to check if an input is valid, retrieving core company metadata immediately. If it passes validation, you can then follow up with `get_company_by_vat` to pull richer profile information. This real-time data flow makes the user experience smooth. The client sees the validation status appear live as soon as the background process completes.
Audit tax rates for specific countries.
Need current VAT rules? Call `get_country_vat_rates` and pass in the country code to pull the exact percentage. This is essential when building user-facing accounting tools. The results stream right into your React component, letting the end user see the applicable tax rate without delay or a clunky loading spinner.
