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.

Curated set · 4 capabilities

Capability set01 / 01

01-04

4 capabilities in this set.

Part of 4 available through Step Distance Calculator.

  1. 01

    Validate step length bounds

    This capability checks if a provided step length falls within realistic human physiological ranges.

  2. 02

    Convert between units

    Use this to change a distance value from one unit of measurement to another.

  3. 03

    Get distance from steps

    This capability calculates total distance covered using a specific step count and step length.

  4. 04

    Get unit metadata

    This capability provides information about which units are supported and how they relate to each other.

Real work

What teams actually run

01

Fitness Tracking Analysis

Convert daily step counts from a wearable device into total miles walked.

02

Biometric Data Cleaning

Filter out impossible step length values from a large dataset of user movement.

03

Global Data Standardization

Convert distance measurements from meters to feet for different reporting needs.

04

Gait Research

Validate that experimental step length data aligns with human physiological norms.

One connector, every AI

Step Distance Calculator 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 Step Distance Calculator 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 Step Distance Calculator, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Step Distance Calculator. 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 Step Distance Calculator owners hand off.

This MCP is for professionals handling biometric or fitness data who need to convert movement counts into distance.

  • 01

    Fitness Data Analysts

    They hand off raw sensor data to the AI to get processed distance metrics.

  • 02

    Health Researchers

    They use the capability to validate that movement data stays within realistic human bounds.

  • 03

    App Developers

    They use the math logic to verify distance calculations in fitness-related workflows.

FAQ

Questions Step Distance Calculator owners ask.

  • 01

    How do I use this MCP with Claude?

    You connect to the Vinkius hosted MCP once, and then your Claude client can call the capabilities directly through the Model Context Protocol.

  • 02

    Can this capability check if my walking data is realistic?

    Yes, the validate_step_length_bounds capability checks if your step length is within plausible human ranges.

  • 03

    What units are supported for conversion?

    The MCP supports various metric and imperial units, which you can check using the get_unit_metadata capability.

  • 04

    Do I need to host this myself?

    No, Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP for you, so it is ready to use as soon as you connect.

  • 05

    Can I convert feet to miles?

    Yes, the convert_between_units capability handles transformations between different distance measurements.

  • 06

    How do I calculate distance from my steps?

    You can use the get_distance_from_steps capability by providing your total step count, your average step length, and the unit you want the result in.

  • 07

    What units are supported?

    The server supports both Metric (meters, kilometers) and Imperial (inches, feet, yards, miles) units. Use get_unit_metadata to see the full list.

  • 08

    Can I verify if my step length is realistic?

    Yes, the validate_step_length_bounds capability checks if a provided step length falls within plausible human biological ranges.
