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.

Real work

What teams actually run

01

Hazard Avoidance

An operator tells the agent the truck's height to ensure the route avoids low bridges.

02

Budget Planning

A manager asks for the total toll impact of a new long-haul route.

03

Compliance Reporting

A user requests a mileage summary by state to prepare IFTA filings.

04

Service Area Mapping

A dispatcher uses isochrone capabilities to see how far a driver can get in a single shift.

Automate a task

Put Trimble 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

Trimble 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 Trimble 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 Trimble, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

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

This MCP is built for professionals managing heavy vehicle movement and logistics data.

  • 01

    Fleet Operations Managers

    They use the agent to oversee deployments and check toll costs for specific trips.

  • 02

    Logistical Data Scientists

    They use the agent to plot distance matrices and analyze heavy machinery requirements.

  • 03

    Dispatch Analysts

    They use the agent to estimate delivery reach using time-based isochrone boundaries.

FAQ

Questions Trimble owners ask.

  • 01

    How does this MCP handle truck height restrictions?

    You provide the vehicle height and weight in your prompt, and the agent uses those variables to calculate a route that avoids low bridges and restricted roads.

  • 02

    Can I use this with my existing Trimble account?

    Yes, you just need to provide your certified Trimble Developer API Key during the setup process in Vinkius.

  • 03

    Does it support toll calculations for different payment types?

    Yes, the capability returns both cash and electronic toll values for specific truck routes.

  • 04

    What AI clients can I use with this?

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

  • 05

    Can it help with IFTA reporting?

    Yes, it can generate automatic mileage summaries broken down by individual US states or provinces.

  • 06

    Where do I recover the operational Trimble API Key?

    Navigate smoothly into your authorized corporate sphere residing on the developer.trimble.com suite. Look closely at the primary headers locating your Applications or API Access portal hub. Designate a new instance or inspect an existing module tied to Mapping/PC*MILER bounds, copy the immutable token securely generated, and inject it flawlessly right below.

  • 07

    Will route_avoiding_roads block major US interstates dynamically?

    Yes. This precise endpoint takes an array/string argument of roads to systematically avoid. Instruct the agent to evade specific highways, and Trimble's underlying algorithm recalculates the mathematical vectors completely rendering a path rejecting that specific asphalt footprint unconditionally.

  • 08

    What is the lifespan of my Trimble API access token?

    Trimble access tokens obtained via OAuth generally have a short lifespan, typically expiring after 60 minutes. Your MCP integration handles this internally by automatically renewing it using refresh processes when necessary, so no manual intervention is required.
