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.

How Vinkius works: one connection, every tool, in any AI
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.

Complete set · 4 capabilities

The complete Service Utilization capability set.

These are the exact actions your AI can choose when you ask it to work with Service Utilization.

Capability set01 / 01

01-04

4 capabilities in this set.

Part of 4 available through Service Utilization.

  1. 01

    Get resource availability schedule

    This capability retrieves a daily breakdown of available versus booked hours within a specific date range.

  2. 02

    Get resource capacity forecast

    This capability estimates future availability by comparing current bookings against theoretical capacity. It helps you predict if you'll have enough hands on deck later.

  3. 03

    Get resource utilization

    This capability calculates the utilization percentage for a specific resource over a set timeframe. It tells you exactly how much of a person's time is occupied.

  4. 04

    Get team utilization

    This capability provides the aggregate utilization for a group of resources. Use it to see if a whole team is overextended or underutilized.

One connector, every AI

Service Utilization 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 Service Utilization 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. 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 Service Utilization, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Service Utilization. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.

FAQ

Questions Service Utilization owners ask.

  • 01

    How does this MCP calculate utilization?

    It calculates the percentage of a resource's available hours that are currently booked.

  • 02

    Can I check the capacity of a whole team at once?

    Yes, the get_team_utilization capability provides the aggregate utilization for any group of resources you specify.

  • 03

    Does this help with future planning?

    Yes, the get_resource_capacity_forecast capability estimates future availability by comparing current bookings against theoretical capacity.

  • 04

    What AI clients can I use with this MCP?

    You can use any MCP-compatible client, including Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, and VS Code.
