What can this MCP calculate for my farm?

It calculates implementation costs, yield revenue changes, long-term soil value, and overall economic viability including break-even points.

Which AI clients can I use with this MCP?

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

Does this capability account for nutrient credits?

Yes, the capability can evaluate revenue changes by including nutrient credits in the calculation.

How does it handle soil health value?

It estimates the annualized economic benefit you receive from environmental improvements to the soil.

Do I need to host the MCP myself?

No, Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP for you. You just connect your client and start working.

How do I calculate the total cost of planting a cover crop?

You can use the get_annual_implementation_cost capability. Provide the seed cost, establishment cost, and termination cost to get the total annual implementation expense.

Can this capability account for government subsidies like EQIP?

Yes. When using calculate_long_term_soil_value, you can include government incentive payments such as EQIP or CSP to see how they impact the total soil health benefit.

What is the break-even yield effect?

The break-even yield effect is the minimum percentage increase in crop yield required to cover all implementation costs, which can be determined using calculate_economic_viability.

Works with modern AI clients that support MCP, including ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and more.

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.
