Your AI does the work. We keep it safe and sound.

No other AI tool gives you this. Your workflow runs in the client you already love, your account stays protected, and you decide what the agent can and cannot do. It is the whole reason to make the switch.

Each Connector lives inside our infrastructure, the same place where your workflow runs. The three things below are already part of it, working quietly in the background so you never have to think about them. Nothing to add, nothing to set up, nothing to worry about.

V8 Isolate01

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed environment.

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed V8 runtime — no access to your files, your system, or other servers. A Connector never sees past its own request.

Kill Switch02

One switch stops every agent. Instantly.

One action deactivates every Connector, revokes every token, and ends every session at once. AI Governance keeps the record.

FinOps per User03

Spending limits that pause instead of surprise.

Every user keeps their own connections and credentials, isolated from everyone else. Anything that would cross your spending limit is held for your approval, not billed.

Three controls, built into the layer your AI connects through.

Capability set01 / 01

01-04

4 capabilities in this set.

Part of 4 available through AI Agent Workflow Cost.

  1. 01

    Calculate reliability impact

    Calculates the additional financial burden imposed by failures and subsequent retries

  2. 02

    Calculate workflow baseline

    Determines the theoretical minimum cost to complete a task if no errors occur

  3. 03

    Get task efficiency score

    Provides a single metric representing the economic health of the agent workflow

  4. 04

    Analyze optimization levers

    Identifies specific areas in the workflow where cost-reduction efforts would yield the highest ROI

Real work

What teams actually run

01

Pre-Launch Budgeting

Before deploying a new agent, run a cost analysis to predict the operational budget required, including expected failure rates.

02

Optimizing Existing Agents

Use the optimization capabilities to pinpoint bottlenecks in a live workflow, allowing you to reduce costs without sacrificing performance.

03

Comparing Architectures

Model two different agent pipelines (e.g., one with external capabilities vs. one with internal logic) to see which has the lower long-term cost.

04

Justifying Tech Debt

Quantify the financial risk of poor reliability, providing concrete data to justify refactoring or improving error handling.

One connector, every AI

AI Agent Workflow Cost works with the most popular AI clients.

These are the most popular clients, each with a step-by-step guide: one link, set up once, with governance and visibility built in. And because everything runs on the MCP standard, the same connection also works in any other compatible client — nothing to rebuild.

Building your own app? The connector is yours to use.

You don't need a client to put AI Agent Workflow Cost to work: the same hosted connection plugs into your own applications and agent code, with the same governance on every request. Build with it, chat with it — one connection for both.

Connect your client

One URL. Every client.

Activate the Connector, copy your link, and paste it into the client you already use. 4 capabilities arrive ready to run.

Preview access · not provider authentication

The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of AI Agent Workflow Cost, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with AI Agent Workflow Cost. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.

Who it's for

Built for the work AI Agent Workflow Cost owners hand off.

This MCP is built for technical teams and product owners who need to move beyond simple token counting. If you're deploying agents into a production environment, you need to know the true cost of failure. This capability gives you the financial data to justify your architecture and manage budgets.

  • 01

    AI Engineer

    Use this MCP to validate architectural decisions and predict the total cost of complex, multi-step agent pipelines.

  • 02

    Product Manager

    Run cost analyses to prove the ROI of new agent features before committing engineering resources.

  • 03

    FinOps Analyst

    Model the economic impact of agent reliability, helping to forecast operational expenditure (OpEx) accurately.

FAQ

Questions AI Agent Workflow Cost owners ask.

  • 01

    What kind of costs does this MCP analyze?

    It models the full financial footprint of AI agents. This includes the baseline cost of successful execution, plus the additional financial burden imposed by failures and subsequent retries.

  • 02

    Do I need to know my failure rate beforehand?

    While you can input expected failure rates, the MCP helps you understand the financial impact of reliability issues, which is critical for accurate budgeting.

  • 03

    Can I use this with any AI client?

    Yes. Because this MCP is hosted on Vinkius, you connect once from any MCP-compatible client, like Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf.

  • 04

    Is this just a token counter?

    No. It goes deeper than token counting. It models the economic health of the workflow, providing a single efficiency score and identifying specific cost-reduction levers.

  • 05

    What if my workflow is very simple?

    Even simple workflows benefit. You can use calculate_workflow_baseline to establish the absolute minimum cost, giving you a clear benchmark for future improvements.

  • 06

    How does this capability account for agent failures?

    It uses calculate_reliability_impact to model the additional costs incurred by the failure rate and the specific multiplier for retry attempts.

  • 07

    Can I identify which steps are most expensive?

    Yes, analyze_optimization_levers identifies high-cost steps based on LLM call density and capability usage.

  • 08

    What is an efficiency score?

    The efficiency score is a metric provided by get_task_efficiency_score that compares the baseline cost to the total cost including reliability overhead.
