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 · 5 capabilities

    This capability provides bearing statistics, including both initial and final bearings, between two specific points.

  2. 02

    Generate bounding box

    This capability creates a rectangular bounding box that encompasses a circular area defined by a radius.

  3. 03

    Get midpoint

    This capability finds the geographic center between two sets of coordinates.

Capability set02 / 02

04-05

2 capabilities in this set.

Part of 5 available through Geographic Distance Calculator.

  1. 04

    Calculate distance

    This capability computes the distance between two geographic points. It supports Haversine, Vincenty, and Euclidean models depending on the precision you need.

  2. 05

    Compute destination

    Use this to find a specific destination point. You provide a starting coordinate, a bearing, and a travel distance to get the new coordinates.

Real work

What teams actually run

01

Route Planning

Calculate precise distances between shipping hubs using different mathematical models.

02

Search Area Definition

Generate a bounding box around a specific coordinate to define a search perimeter.

03

Navigation Logic

One connector, every AI

Geographic Distance Calculator 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 Geographic Distance Calculator 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.

One URL. Every client.

Activate the Connector, copy your link, and paste it into the client you already use. 5 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 Geographic Distance Calculator, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Geographic Distance Calculator. 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 Geographic Distance Calculator owners hand off.

This MCP is built for anyone working with coordinate-based data who needs more than just a simple map interface.

  • 01

    Logistics Analysts

    They hand off route distance and midpoint calculations to their agent.

  • 02

    GIS Specialists

    They use the agent to quickly generate bounding boxes and bearing stats.

  • 03

    Software Developers

    They use the capability to verify spatial math logic within their applications.

FAQ

Questions Geographic Distance Calculator owners ask.

  • 01

    What mathematical models does this MCP use?

    It uses Haversine, Vincenty, and Euclidean models for distance calculations.

  • 02

    Can I use this with Cursor or VS Code?

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

  • 03

    How do I calculate a destination point?

    You can use the compute_destination capability by providing a starting coordinate, a bearing, and the distance traveled.

  • 04

    Does this MCP handle bounding boxes?

    Yes, the generate_bounding_box capability creates a rectangular area around a circular radius.

  • 05

    Is there a difference between the distance models?

    Yes, the models offer different levels of precision, such as the highly accurate Vincenty model for long distances.

  • 06

    Which calculation method should I use for distance?

    Use haversine for most general-purpose needs as it is efficient and accurate. Use vincenty when high precision is required for long-distance navigation, as it accounts for the Earth's ellipsoidal shape. Use euclidean only for extremely short distances where curvature is negligible.

  • 07

    Can I find the center point between two cities?

    Yes, you can use the get_midpoint capability to find the geographic center along the great-circle path between any two sets of coordinates.

  • 08

    Does the server support different distance units?

    Yes, all distance results from calculate_distance are returned in meters, kilometers, miles, and nautical miles.
