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.

Automate a task

Put Column to work on one thing.

Step-by-step automations your AI runs through this Connector: the workflow, the prompts to start with, and the exact capabilities behind each move.

One connector, every AI

Column 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 Column 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. 12 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 Column, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Column. 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 Column owners hand off.

This MCP is built for technical teams who need to automate high-volume or complex financial movements without manual UI intervention.

  • 01

    FinOps Engineers

    They hand off complex capital routing and ledger reconciliation to the agent.

  • 02

    Property Managers

    They use the agent to push paper checks to tenants or vendors via chat.

  • 03

    Payroll Managers

    They automate recurring payouts and vendor settlements through natural language.

FAQ

Questions Column owners ask.

  • 01

    How do I connect this MCP to my AI client?

    You simply provide your Column API Key within the Vinkius interface. Once entered, you can connect your client like Claude or Cursor with one click.

  • 02

    Can I actually mail physical checks?

    Yes. You can use the column_create_check capability to instruct the bank to print and mail a paper check to any US address.

  • 03

    Is this a direct connection to a bank?

    Yes. This MCP connects your agent directly to Column, which is a nationally chartered US bank.

  • 04

    What kind of transfers can my agent perform?

    Your agent can perform ACH transfers, immediate wire transfers, and physical check mailings.

  • 05

    Does this handle KYC compliance?

    Yes. The MCP includes capabilities to register entities and manage KYC profiles through Column's compliance screening.

  • 06

    Is 'column_create_check' actually sending out physical US Mail?

    Yes! Column natively operates check printing infrastructure lockboxes. By providing a proper US Address in your chat interface to column_create_check, Column mechanically generates the cheque deducting the amount initially and mails it sequentially. It is incredibly useful for archaic landlord payouts and contractor duties.

  • 07

    How are Webhooks handled in the AI interaction space?

    With column_list_webhooks, you give your AI agent deep systemic oversight over what automated routing endpoints are configured to hear back clearance metrics. An AI could check if an engineer correctly connected your primary SaaS billing app to Column's wire settlements.

  • 08

    Does Column authentication require extensive mTLS configurations as well?

    No, US Banking BaaS endpoints standardly utilize simpler Auth mappings than LATAM. Column simply relies on Basic Authentication mapping natively your standard alphanumeric API KEY which the framework seamlessly encodes securely for you under the hood.
