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.

One connector, every AI

Forecast 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 Forecast 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. 6 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 Forecast, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

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

FAQ

Questions Forecast owners ask.

  • 01

    How do I connect my Forecast account?

    You need to provide your Forecast Personal API Key, which you can find in Forecast under Admin and then API Keys.

  • 02

    Which AI clients can I use with this MCP?

    You can use this with any MCP-compatible client, including Claude, Cursor, and Windsurf.

  • 03

    Does this MCP work with my existing Forecast data?

    Yes, it pulls real-time data from your Forecast account, including projects, tasks, people, and milestones.

  • 04

    Can I check team availability through the AI?

    Yes, you can ask your agent to check the availability and workload of team members to manage capacity.

  • 05

    Do I need to host this myself?

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

  • 06

    Can my agent list all active projects in Forecast?

    Yes. Use the 'list_projects' capability. The agent will retrieve the global array of all managed projects mapped inside your Forecast account, including their names and unique IDs.

  • 07

    How do I check a specific team member's availability via chat?

    Use the 'list_people' capability. Your agent will fetch the physical identity definitions and availability constraints of global members, allowing you to monitor team utilization and workload natively.

  • 08

    Can I see the upcoming milestones for a project through the agent?

    Absolutely. Use the 'list_milestones' capability with the specific Project ID. The agent will identify timebox markers bounding specific sprint or deliverable targets for that project natively.
