What is the Precisely MCP Server?
Fuse the Precisely geospatial intelligence network directly into your AI workflows, enabling your agents to accurately pinpoint addresses globally, extract demographics, and evaluate location-based risks with unparalleled precision.
What you can do
- Geocoding & Autocompletion — Supply partial strings and tell the AI to resolve absolute Coordinates globally (
geocode_address,autocomplete_address) - Risk Assessment — Submit coordinates to instantly read FEMA flood zones or comparative crime metrics for that property (
enrich_flood_risk,enrich_crime_risk) - Tax Boundaries — Ask the AI to parse the exact Local Sales Tax jurisdiction applying strictly to that rooftop coordinate (
get_local_tax) - Deep Enrichment — Convert standard US Addresses into comprehensive property records including square footage and household socioeconomic segments
How it works
- Subscribe to this MCP server
- Provide your Precisely API Key and API Secret
- Start using conversational coordinates in Claude, Cursor, or your preferred agent
Stop managing external map APIs or relying on outdated geocoders. Simply tell the AI to 'verify the delivery status of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave' and let Precisely evaluate it natively.
Who is this for?
- Data Engineers — standardize, clean, and verify raw address fragments spanning millions of global records without writing cURL scripts
- Real Estate Analysts — ask for property dimensions, flood scores, and socioeconomic stats in natural language to build instant reports
- E-commerce Ops — validate rooftop tax zones resolving complex US jurisdictions directly during development
Built-in capabilities (10)
Returns up to 10 candidate addresses ranked by relevance. Designed for keystroke-by-keystroke usage in address input forms. Provide real-time address suggestions as users type using the Precisely Typeahead Autocomplete API, drawing from a comprehensive global address database to accelerate form completion and reduce entry errors
Returns crime indices normalized to a national average of 100 — values above 100 indicate higher-than-average risk. Assess the crime risk index for a specific location using the Precisely Risks API, returning normalized risk scores across categories like burglary, assault, vehicle theft, and overall crime relative to national averages
Returns rich socio-economic profiles for the census block or postal zone containing the coordinates. Retrieve detailed demographic segmentation data for a geographic coordinate using the Precisely Demographics API, including household income brackets, population density, education levels, age distribution, and consumer spending patterns
Returns flood zone classification (A, AE, X, V), base flood elevation, and risk index. Primarily covers US territories with FEMA data. Evaluate flood risk exposure for a specific location using the Precisely Environmental Risks API, returning FEMA flood zone designations, proximity to water bodies, elevation data, and flood risk scores
precisely.com. The API returns a ranked list of candidates with latitude, longitude, precision code, and match confidence. Always pass the most complete address string available to maximize match quality. The response includes PrecisionCode indicating match depth (S8 = rooftop, S5 = street-level). Forward-geocode a full or partial address string into geographic coordinates using the Precisely Geocoding API v1, which resolves against a world-class global address reference database covering 250+ countries and territories
Returns the combined tax rate and individual components (state, county, city, special district). Determine the applicable sales tax rate and tax jurisdiction for a geographic location using the Precisely Local Tax API, resolving complex overlapping US tax jurisdictions down to the rooftop level
Returns a rich property record sourced from county assessor databases. Coverage is US-only. Retrieve comprehensive property attribute data for a US address using the Precisely Property API v2, including lot size, building square footage, year built, number of bedrooms/bathrooms, assessed value, and ownership information
Returns the IANA timezone identifier (e.g. America/New_York), current UTC offset, and DST status. Resolve the timezone and current UTC offset for any geographic coordinate using the Precisely Timezone API, accounting for daylight saving time transitions and political boundary changes
Note the parameter order: x = longitude, y = latitude. Returns the closest matching address with full components (street, city, state, postal code, country). Convert geographic coordinates (latitude/longitude) back into a structured postal address using the Precisely Reverse Geocoding API, resolving the nearest rooftop-level address from the global reference database
Returns a verified, standardized address with a verification status indicating if the address is deliverable, if components were corrected, or if the address is invalid. Validate and standardize a postal address against authoritative reference datasets using the Precisely Address Verification API, returning USPS/Royal Mail/local postal authority standardized formatting and deliverability status

Frequently asked questions
Can the AI find out if a specific property is inside a flood zone?
Yes. First the AI uses geocode_address to find the exact Latitude/Longitude of the building's rooftop. Then it feeds those coordinates into enrich_flood_risk to extract the strict FEMA designation naturally.
How accurately does verify_address standardize locations?
Very accurately. It connects to native postal services (like USPS and Royal Mail) to autocorrect misspellings, adjust zip codes, and flag impossible addresses before they reach your logistics layer.
Do I need two separate keys to use this?
Yes. Precisely Developer APIs use robust OAuth workflows. You must supply both the individual API Key (Consumer Key) and the API Secret. The MCP server handles token exchanging for you internally.
How does Claude Desktop discover MCP tools?
When Claude Desktop starts, it reads the claude_desktop_config.json file and connects to each configured MCP server. It calls the tools/list endpoint to fetch the schema for every available tool, then surfaces them as clickable options in the chat interface via the 🔌 icon.
What happens if the MCP server is temporarily unavailable?
Claude Desktop handles disconnections gracefully. if the server is unreachable at startup, the tools simply won't appear. Once the server becomes available again, restarting Claude Desktop will re-establish the connection. There is no timeout penalty or error loop.
Can I connect multiple MCP servers simultaneously?
Yes. You can add as many servers as you need in the mcpServers section of the config file. Each server appears as a separate tool provider, and Claude can use tools from multiple servers in a single conversation turn.
Is there a limit on the number of tools per server?
Claude Desktop can handle hundreds of tools per server. However, for optimal LLM performance, Vinkius servers are designed to expose focused, well-documented tool sets rather than overwhelming the model with too many options.
Does Claude Desktop support Streamable HTTP transport?
Yes. Claude Desktop supports both SSE (Server-Sent Events) and the newer Streamable HTTP transport that Vinkius uses. Simply provide the server URL. Claude auto-negotiates the transport protocol.
Server not appearing after restart
Ensure the JSON is valid (no trailing commas). Check the file path: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\\Claude\\ (Windows).
Authentication error
Verify your Vinkius token is correct. Go to cloud.vinkius.com to regenerate it if needed.
Tools not showing in chat
Click the 🔌 icon at the bottom of the chat input. If it shows 0 tools, the server may still be connecting. wait a few seconds.
