FAQ

How the task behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI submit a bid for me?

    No. The AI only reads and retrieves data from the procurement system. You must handle all formal submissions yourself.

  • 02

    Does the AI update the city's database?

    No. This MCP is read-only. It can query existing tenders but cannot change or add any information to the city's records.

  • 03

    How fresh is the data?

    The AI pulls data directly from the city's active records, so you see what is currently listed in the system.

  • 04

    Can I search for specific vendors?

    Yes, you can ask the AI to find bids associated with specific companies or service providers.

  • 05

    Do I need to install anything on my computer?

    No. Vinkius hosts the MCP. You just connect your existing AI client to the Vinkius catalog.
