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.

Curated set · 4 capabilities

Capability set01 / 01

01-04

4 capabilities in this set.

Part of 4 available through Cloud Risk Analyzer.

  1. 01

    Calculate lock in risk

  2. 02

    Estimate switching costs

    This capability calculates the specific financial burden of moving to a new provider. It accounts for data egress fees and penalties from reserved capacity.

  3. 03

    Evaluate negotiation leverage

    This capability determines your ability to demand better pricing or terms. It assesses your bargaining power based on your current cloud footprint.

  4. 04

    Analyze dependency density

    This capability measures how stuck you are in your environment. It looks at the types of services you use to determine environment stickiness.

Real work

What teams actually run

01

Preview access · not provider authentication

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

It does not authenticate your account with Cloud Risk Analyzer. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.

    It is the risk of being stuck with a single cloud provider due to high migration costs or heavy reliance on their proprietary services.

  • 02

    How does this MCP calculate switching costs?

    It looks at specific financial factors like data egress fees and penalties for unused reserved capacity.

  • 03

  • 05

    Can I use this for multi-cloud analysis?

    Yes, you can use the risk scoring and dependency capabilities to evaluate how a multi-cloud approach affects your overall exposure.

  • 06

    How is the lock-in risk score calculated?

    The score is an aggregate metric derived from your annual cloud spend, the number of proprietary services in use, and the qualitative complexity of your current architecture.

  • 07

    Does this capability account for data egress fees?

    Yes, the estimate_switching_costs capability specifically calculates the financial burden of moving data out of a provider based on volume and specific egress rates.

  • 08
