Connect Bit Selection Optimization to ChatGPT and Claude

Set it up once and it works in ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and any other client you love. It all runs safely in the background, so you can relax and focus on what really matters. Pick the right bit for any formation and cut drilling costs.

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.

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 Bit Selection Optimization.

  1. 01

    Compare bit options

    This capability performs a side-by-side comparison of two different bit configurations to see which performs better.

  2. 02

    Estimate performance metrics

    This capability predicts expected drilling speed and bit wear characteristics for a chosen bit.

  3. 03

    Select optimal bit

    This capability recommends the best bit type and IADC category based on your specific geological and drilling objectives.

  4. 04

    Calculate cost analysis

    Use this to find the financial efficiency of a drilling run by calculating the Cost-per-Foot metric.

Real work

What teams actually run

01

Formation Matching

Match a bit to a specific rock type by providing its compressive strength and abrasiveness.

02

Budget Planning

Run cost-per-foot math to see how different bit choices impact the total drilling budget.

03

Bit Selection Comparison

Compare a PDC bit against a Roller Cone bit for a specific formation to find the winner.

04

Drilling Speed Prediction

Estimate how fast you will drill and how long the bit will last before it needs replacement.

One connector, every AI

Bit Selection Optimization 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 Bit Selection Optimization 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 Bit Selection Optimization, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Bit Selection Optimization. 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 Bit Selection Optimization owners hand off.

This MCP is built for drilling engineers and operations teams who need to make fast, data-driven decisions at the rig site or in the office.

  • 01

    Drilling Engineer

    Hands off geological data to the AI to get bit recommendations and cost estimates.

  • 02

    Operations Manager

    Uses the AI to compare different bit options to control drilling costs.

  • 03

    Geologist

    Provides formation properties to help the AI select the right capability for the rock type.

FAQ

Questions Bit Selection Optimization owners ask.

  • 01

    What AI clients can I use with this MCP?

    You can use this MCP with any compatible client, including Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, and VS Code.

  • 02

    Do I need to host the MCP myself?

    No, Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP for you. You just connect your client and it is ready to use.

  • 03

    Can this MCP help with cost-per-foot calculations?

    Yes, the calculate_cost_analysis capability specifically determines financial efficiency using the Cost-per-Foot metric.

  • 04

    How does it recommend a bit?

    The select_optimal_bit capability uses your inputs regarding formation type, strength, and abrasiveness to suggest the best IADC category.

  • 05

    Can I compare two different bits?

    Yes, the compare_bit_options capability allows you to perform a side-by-side comparison of two bit configurations.

  • 06

    How does the capability decide between PDC and Roller Cone bits?

    The select_optimal_bit capability evaluates the relationship between the formation's compressive strength and its type to recommend either a PDC bit for shearing or a Roller Cone bit for crushing.

  • 07

    Can I compare two different bit configurations?

    Yes, you can use the compare_bit_options capability to perform a side-by-side comparison of two bit configurations to find the one with the lowest Cost-per-Foot.

  • 08

    What metrics are included in the cost analysis?

    The calculate_cost_analysis capability provides the total drilling cost and the Cost-per-Foot (CPF) based on bit cost, rig rate, and expected ROP.
