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

We ship only the actions that matter.

Capability set01 / 01

01-04

4 capabilities in this set.

Part of 4 available through Concrete Takeoff Service.

  1. 01

    Calculate element volume

    This capability computes the gross and net volumes for specific structural elements like slabs or beams.

  2. 02

    Compare takeoff scenarios

    Use this to see how different waste factors or opening configurations change your final order quantity.

  3. 03

    Estimate pump requirements

    This capability calculates the extra concrete volume you'll need to account for pump residue.

  4. 04

    Validate element geometry

    This capability checks if your provided dimensions and openings are physically possible.

Real work

What teams actually run

01

Slab Takeoffs

Calculate total concrete needed for a slab while subtracting large openings.

02

Pump Planning

Determine exactly how much extra concrete to order when using a pump.

03

Scenario Testing

Compare how a 3% waste factor versus a 5% waste factor changes your total cost.

04

Error Checking

Verify that a planned opening in a beam or column is physically possible.

One connector, every AI

Concrete Takeoff Service 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 Concrete Takeoff Service 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 Concrete Takeoff Service, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Concrete Takeoff Service. 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 Concrete Takeoff Service owners hand off.

Construction professionals who need fast, accurate material counts for structural pours.

  • 01

    Estimators

    Hand off dimension sets to the AI to generate precise takeoff quantities.

  • 02

    Project Engineers

    Use the capability to validate structural dimensions and calculate pump needs.

  • 03

    Site Supervisors

    Check order volumes against field measurements to prevent shortages.

FAQ

Questions Concrete Takeoff Service owners ask.

  • 01

    How does this MCP handle structural openings?

    The calculate_element_volume capability accounts for openings to provide accurate net volumes.

  • 02

    Can I account for concrete pump residue?

    Yes, use the estimate_pump_requirements capability to add the extra volume needed for the pump.

  • 03

    What if my dimensions are impossible?

    The validate_element_geometry capability will flag if your dimensions or openings are physically impossible.

  • 04

    Can I compare different waste scenarios?

    Yes, the compare_takeoff_scenarios capability lets you evaluate how different waste factors impact your order.

  • 05

    Which AI clients can use this MCP?

    You can use this with any MCP-compatible client like Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf.

  • 06

    How does the capability handle openings in a structure?

    The calculate_element_volume capability subtracts the volume of all specified openings from the gross volume to provide an accurate net volume.

  • 07

    Can I account for concrete lost in a pump?

    Yes, use the estimate_pump_requirements capability to calculate the additional volume needed to cover residue left in the pump lines.

  • 08

    How can I compare different ordering strategies?

    You can use compare_takeoff_scenarios to see the difference in total volume between two different waste factors or configurations.
