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

We ship only the actions that matter.

Capability set01 / 01

01-04

  3. 03

    Get offset from timezone name

    This capability returns the current UTC offset for common timezone identifiers like JST or EST.

  4. 04

    Validate offset format

    This capability checks if a provided string follows the standard UTC offset notation.

Real work

What teams actually run

01

Global Meeting Coordination

Your agent calculates the time difference between two cities to find a meeting window.

02

Log File Analysis

The AI converts timestamps from various server logs into a single consistent offset.

03

Data Normalization

Use the capability to ensure all time-stamped records in a database use the same UTC offset.

04

API Development

Your agent validates that offset strings are correctly formatted before sending them to an endpoint.

One connector, every AI

Time Zone Converter 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 Time Zone Converter 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 Time Zone Converter, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

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