Compatible with every major AI agent and IDE
What is the Scale AI MCP Server?
Connect your Scale AI account to any AI agent to orchestrate large-scale data labeling and fine-tuning pipelines through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Project Management — Create and configure projects for specific labeling types like image annotation or semantic segmentation.
- Batch Operations — Organize high-volume work into batches and finalize them to trigger the labeling process.
- Multi-Modal Tasks — Submit tasks for Image Annotation, Semantic Segmentation, and Video Playback directly via API.
- Task Lifecycle — Retrieve detailed status of individual tasks or cancel pending ones to manage your budget and throughput.
- Parameter Tuning — Update project-level instructions and parameters dynamically to refine labeling quality.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Scale AI Live API Key
- Start managing your data pipelines from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- ML Engineers — automate the submission of edge cases for labeling directly from training scripts or analysis notebooks.
- Data Operations Managers — monitor batch progress and update labeling instructions without leaving the chat interface.
- AI Researchers — quickly spin up RLHF or annotation projects to validate new model datasets.

Scale AI in Mastra AI
Scale AI and 4,000+ other MCP servers. One platform. One governance layer.
Teams that connect Scale AI to Mastra AI through Vinkius don't need to source, host, or maintain individual MCP servers. Every tool call runs inside a hardened runtime with credential isolation, DLP, and a signed audit chain.

Why teams choose Vinkius for Scale AI in Mastra AI
The Scale AI 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 Mastra AI 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
Scale AI for Mastra AI
Every tool call from Mastra AI to the Scale AI 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 start a high-volume labeling job using batches?
First, use create_batch to initialize a group for your project. After submitting your tasks to this batch, call finalize_batch to signal Scale to begin the labeling process.
Can I check the status of a specific annotation task?
Yes, use the get_task tool with the specific Task ID. It will return the full metadata, current status, and any available results for that unit of work.
What should I do if I submitted a task by mistake?
You can use the cancel_task tool with the Task ID. If you need to reuse the unique identifier, you can also set the clear_unique_id parameter to true.
How does Mastra AI connect to MCP servers?
Create an MCPClient with the server URL and pass it to your agent. Mastra discovers all tools and makes them available with full TypeScript types.
Can Mastra agents use tools from multiple servers?
Yes. Pass multiple MCP clients to the agent constructor. Mastra merges all tool schemas and the agent can call any tool from any server.
Does Mastra support workflow orchestration?
Yes. Mastra has a built-in workflow engine that lets you chain MCP tool calls with branching logic, error handling, and parallel execution.
