Bring Cellular Connectivity
to AutoGen
Learn how to connect Hologram.io to AutoGen and start using 11 AI agent tools in minutes. Fully managed, enterprise secure, and ready to use without writing a single line of code.
What is the Hologram.io MCP Server?
Connect your Hologram.io IoT platform to any AI agent and take full control of your global cellular connectivity and device fleet through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Device Oversight — List all IoT devices in your account, retrieve detailed metadata, and monitor their active status.
- SIM Card Management — Access lists of SIM cards (cellular links) and their associated data plans to ensure seamless connectivity.
- Data Usage Monitoring — Retrieve recent data sessions, daily usage statistics, and current billing cycle summaries.
- Connectivity Control — Quickly pause or unpause data services for specific SIM cards directly from the chat interface.
- Location Insights — Access approximate GPS coordinates for your entire fleet based on cell tower triangulation.
- SMS Tracking — Retrieve the history of device-originated SMS messages for troubleshooting and logging.
How it works
1. Subscribe to this server
2. Enter your Hologram API Key (found in Dashboard > API)
3. Start managing your IoT fleet from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
No more manual exporting of usage logs or jumping between complex fleet management screens. Your AI assistant acts as a dedicated IoT Operations Manager or Network Specialist.
Who is this for?
- IoT Engineers — instantly check device connectivity and retrieve data session logs during development.
- Fleet Managers — automate the process of monitoring data overages and pausing inactive SIMs.
- Operations Leads — maintain a real-time overview of fleet location and billing usage.

Why AutoGen?
AutoGen enables multi-agent conversations where agents negotiate, delegate, and collaboratively use Hologram.io tools. Connect 11 tools through Vinkius and assign role-based access. a data analyst queries while a reviewer validates, with optional human-in-the-loop approval for sensitive operations.

Why teams choose Vinkius for Hologram.io in AutoGen
The Hologram.io MCP Server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS — a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts. All 11 tools execute in hardened sandboxes optimized for native MCP execution.
Your AI agents in AutoGen only access the data you authorize, with DLP that blocks sensitive information from ever reaching the model, kill switch for instant shutdown, and up to 60% token savings. Enterprise-grade infrastructure, zero maintenance.

* Every MCP server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS - a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts optimized for native MCP execution. See our infrastructure
How Vinkius secures
Hologram.io for AutoGen
Every tool call from AutoGen to the Hologram.io MCP Server is protected by DLP redaction, cryptographic audit chains, V8 sandbox isolation, kill switch, and financial circuit breakers.
Frequently asked questions
How do I find my Hologram.io API Key?
Log in to your Hologram dashboard, click on your profile/organization name, navigate to Settings, and select the API tab. You will find your unique API Key there.
Can I pause data for a specific device?
Yes! Use the pause_sim_data tool by providing the unique cellular link ID for that device. This will change its state to 'suspended' and stop data usage immediately.
How accurate is the device location feature?
The location data provided by get_device_locations is approximate and based on cell tower triangulation. It is generally accurate within a few hundred meters to a few miles depending on tower density.
Is the integration secure for managing my IoT fleet?
Absolutely. The integration uses industry-standard Basic Authentication over HTTPS. Your credentials and connectivity data are encrypted and stored securely within the Vinkius Cloud infrastructure.
How does AutoGen connect to MCP servers?
Create an MCP tool adapter and assign it to one or more agents in the group chat. AutoGen agents can then call Hologram.io tools during their conversation turns.
Can different agents have different MCP tool access?
Yes. AutoGen's role-based architecture lets you assign specific MCP tools to specific agents, so a querying agent has different capabilities than a reviewing agent.
Does AutoGen support human approval for tool calls?
Yes. Configure human-in-the-loop mode so agents pause and request approval before executing sensitive MCP tool calls.
