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

OpenStreetMap + Russian Wikipedia 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 OpenStreetMap + Russian Wikipedia 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.

    Tour Planners

    They use the data to identify the history behind the facades they pass in central Moscow.

FAQ

Questions OpenStreetMap + Russian Wikipedia owners ask.

  • 01

    What kind of buildings are included in the high-rise capability?

    It covers Stalinist high-rises, the Moscow City towers, and late-Soviet giants with 12 or more floors.

  • 02

    Can I find information about specific architects?

    Yes, the find_historic_buildings capability provides the architect for about 1,100 tagged buildings and manors.

  • 03

    Does this cover memorial plaques?

    Yes, the find_plaques capability covers the commemorative signs found throughout central Moscow, especially inside the Garden Ring.

  • 04

    How much data is available for monuments?

    The capability provides access to over 2,000 monuments and memorials, including Great Patriotic War sites.

  • 05

    Is there Wikipedia integration?

    Yes, the architecture_wiki capability pulls the Moscow architecture roll directly from Russian Wikipedia.

  • 06

    Do I need an API key?

    No. Every source is keyless and global: OpenStreetMap (Overpass + Nominatim) and Russian Wikipedia. The MCP defines no credentials.

  • 07

    Is the heritage list official?

    The map layer is the volunteer view; the protected list is Russian Wikipedia’s category of architectural monuments. For an official register, Moscow’s own portal refuses connections from outside Russia.

  • 08

    Why do some high-rises not appear?

    The floor filter is a regex over the building:levels tag. Buildings whose level count is unmapped in OSM are invisible to this capability, whatever their real height.

  • 09

    Can I find monuments near a point?

    Pass lat + lon (and optionally km, 0.1–25) and the query narrows to a radius instead of the whole city. Do it before a long list. a citywide scan is capped at 200 rows.
