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.

You instruct your agent to create a new customer account as part of a larger onboarding flow.

04

Plan Auditing

You ask your agent to list all catalog plans to ensure your pricing models are up to date.

Automate a task

Put Recurly 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

Recurly 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 Recurly 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. 10 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 Recurly, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Recurly. 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 Recurly owners hand off.

This MCP is built for teams that manage recurring revenue and need to interact with billing data through natural language.

  • 01

    RevOps & Finance Teams

    They use the AI to pull billing analytics and track subscription statuses during reviews.

  • 02

    Customer Support Agents

    They use the AI to verify invoice payments or manage subscriptions mid-chat.

  • 03

    Software Developers

    They use the AI to test provisioning logic and check catalog plan structures.

FAQ

Questions Recurly owners ask.

  • 01

    How do I connect this MCP to my AI client?

    You connect once through the Vinkius interface. Vinkius hosts the MCP and manages the connection, so you can immediately start using it in clients like Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf.

  • 02

    Do I need to provide my own API keys?

    Yes, you will need to provide your Recurly subdomain and Private API Key during the setup process to authorize the connection.

  • 03

    Can the AI actually cancel a subscription?

    Yes, the MCP includes a capability to cancel subscriptions, but note that this specific action is irreversible.

  • 04

    Is my billing data secure?

    Vinkius manages the credentials and hosting securely, ensuring your Recurly connection remains private and authenticated.

  • 05

    What happens if I want to reactivate a user?

    You can simply ask your AI client to reactivate a subscription, and it will use the reactivate_subscription capability to restore the account.

  • 06

    How do I find my Subdomain and API Key?

    Your subdomain is the first part of your Recurly portal URL (e.g., if you log in at myproject.recurly.com, your subdomain is myproject). To get your API Key, navigate inside Recurly to Integrations > API Credentials and generate or copy your 'Private API Key'.

  • 07

    Can it accidentally charge my customers?

    While the server can manage subscriptions (e.g., setting up a customer with a plan), it strictly follows the billing logic predefined in your Recurly catalog settings. It doesn't bypass credit card validation or execute arbitrary charges directly without a plan context.

  • 08

    Does cancelling a subscription remove the account entirely?

    No, using cancel_subscription stops future renewals for that specific plan item instance. The underlying user billing account remains intact and can hold other valid subscriptions or past invoices.
