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

Questions Commute Job Comparator owners ask.

  • 01

    You provide an hourly rate, and the capability multiplies that by the total hours spent commuting per year.

  • 02

    Does it include gas and parking costs?

    Yes, it uses transit cost benchmarks to estimate fuel, parking, and transit fares.

  • 03

    Can I use this with Claude?

    Yes, you can connect this MCP to any compatible client like Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf.

  • 04

    What is 'Effective Net Income'?

    It is your base salary minus the total annual cost of your commute and the value of your time spent traveling.

  • 05

    Do I need to host this myself?

    No, Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP so it is ready to use immediately after you connect.

  • 06

    How does this capability calculate the value of my time?

    You provide an hourly time value, which the calculate_commute_impact capability uses to convert the duration of your commute into a monetary cost.

  • 07

    Can I compare two different job offers?

    Yes, use the compare_job_offers capability to determine which position provides the highest effective net income after all commuting factors are considered.

  • 08

    Does remote work affect the results?
