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.

Real work

What teams actually run

01

Performance Tracking

Compare two different sessions to see which one resulted in more total distance.

02

Efficiency Audits

Use tacking penalty calculations to see how much your angle affects your upwind travel.

03

One connector, every AI

Kite-Surf Distance 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 Kite-Surf Distance 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. 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 Kite-Surf Distance, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Kite-Surf Distance. 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 Kite-Surf Distance owners hand off.

This MCP is built for kite-surfers who want to track their technical progress and session efficiency.

  • 01

    Kite-surfers

    Users who provide session data to get precise distance and time metrics.

  • 02

    Wind sports analysts

    People who use session comparisons to study performance trends.

FAQ

Questions Kite-Surf Distance owners ask.

  • 01

    How does this MCP handle relaunching time?

    The capability allows you to input relaunching time so it can be subtracted from your total active movement time.

  • 02

    Can I use this with Claude or Cursor?

    Yes, you can connect this MCP to any MCP-compatible client like Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf.

  • 03

    Does it calculate upwind distance?

    Yes, it uses your tacking angle and wind data to calculate specific upwind and downwind distances.

  • 04

    How do I compare two different sessions?

    You can use the compare_session_efficiency capability to see which session was more productive based on total distance.

  • 05

    What data do I need to provide?

    You typically need to provide session duration, wind speed, tacking angles, and any time spent not moving.

  • 06

    How does the capability account for time spent on the beach?

    The calculate_session_metrics capability allows you to input restDuration and relaunchTime to ensure only the active movement time is used for distance calculations.

  • 07

    What is a tacking angle?

    A tacking angle is the zig-zag path taken when traveling upwind. You can use estimate_tacking_penalty to see how this angle affects your efficiency.

  • 08

    Can I compare two different sessions?

    Yes, you can use compare_session_efficiency to determine which of two sessions resulted in more total distance covered.
