How is this different from using an LLM to check for typos?

LLMs can be inconsistent and unpredictable with text similarity. This MCP provides deterministic, mathematical results that are always the same for the same input.

Which algorithms are included in this MCP?

This MCP includes Levenshtein distance, Jaro-Winkler similarity, and the Dice coefficient.

Do I need to host this myself?

No, Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP for you. You just connect your client and it is ready to use.

Can I use this with Cursor or VS Code?

Yes, this MCP works with any MCP-compatible client including Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, and Claude.

Is the computation done in the cloud?

The calculations are performed using local JS, providing fast and reliable results for your agent.

When should I use Levenshtein?

Levenshtein counts the absolute number of character edits (insertions, deletions, substitutions) required to match the strings. Great for simple spell-checks.

When is Jaro-Winkler better?

Jaro-Winkler gives a score from 0 to 1 and heavily weights matching prefixes. It is the industry standard for matching personal names in databases.

Why not use embeddings?

Embeddings match meaning (semantics). Fuzzy string distances match characters (lexical). If you want to match 'cat' to 'catt', string distance is better.

Waiting for input…

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.

1 capability in this set.

Part of 1 available through Native V8.

01
Calculate fuzzy distance
This capability calculates deterministic Levenshtein, Jaro-Winkler, and Dice string distances between two pieces of text.

Real work

What teams actually run

Deduplicating Contact Lists

Your agent compares names in a CRM to find duplicates caused by typos or different spellings.

Data Normalization

The agent uses string distances to standardize inconsistent user input into a single format.

Entity Resolution

You use the mathematical scores to decide if two different records actually represent the same person or company.

Spell Correction

The agent identifies the closest valid word in a dictionary based on edit distance.

Automate a task

Put Native V8 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

Native V8 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 Native V8 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.

Preview access · not provider authentication

The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of Native V8, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Native V8. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.
