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.

  • 04

    Does it include real-time parking info?

    Yes, the capability can return parking facility locations and real-time availability where that data is provided.

  • 05

    How accurate is the bridge clearance data?

    The MCP pulls directly from the National Bridge Inventory to provide vertical clearance heights for planning.

  • 06

    Can my AI check for low bridges on a truck route in California?

    Yes! Use the get_bridge_clearances capability with jurisdiction=CA to get all bridge clearance data for California. You can also filter by bounding box or radius from specific coordinates. The API returns bridge locations, clearance heights in feet, bridge identifiers, and road names. This is essential for truck height compliance planning and avoiding low-bridge incidents.

  • 07

    How do I find truck parking near a specific location for HOS compliance?

    Use the get_truck_parking capability with lat, lon, and radius parameters to find truck parking facilities near your current location. For example: lat=41.8781, lon=-87.6298, radius=50 finds parking within 50km of Chicago. Results include facility names, coordinates, capacity information, and amenity details. This is critical for Hours of Service (HOS) compliance planning and safe rest stop identification.

  • 08

    Are there any seasonal weight restrictions affecting my route right now?

    Use the get_weight_restrictions capability with jurisdiction and status=active to find all current weight restrictions in a state or province. You can also filter by specific road name (e.g., road=I-94) to check restrictions on a particular highway. Returns restriction details, weight limits, effective dates, and affected road segments. Essential for avoiding weight violation fines and planning compliant loads.
