Built on the Model Context Protocol (MCP) for Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and more

The Model Context Protocol standardizes how applications expose capabilities to LLMs. Instead of operating in isolation, your AI gains direct access to external platforms, live data, and real-world actions through secure, standardized connections.

This connection provides 2 powerful capabilities that interface natively with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and other compatible AI platforms. No middleware. No custom integration required.

Address validation used to be a painful, multi-step chore., Solved with Vinkius AI Gateway

Today, validating an address means copy-pasting data into one system just to get the ZIP. Then you have to take that result and paste it into a second tool to extract coordinates for your map layer. If you need to check a whole spreadsheet of addresses, you write boilerplate code and run it through three different APIs, all while praying they don't rate-limit you.

With this MCP, the process collapses. You hand over the raw postal code or city/state pair to your agent. It gets the coordinates and full metadata in one go. The result is clean, structured data ready for use.

Getting Location Data with get_location_by_postal_code

You used to have to check the code first, then confirm the city/state separately. Now, you just give your agent the postal code. It runs the lookup and immediately returns all three pieces of info: coordinates, state, and city.

What's different is that you get a single source of truth every time. Your workflow doesn't break because one external service went down.

What your AI can actually do with this

This MCP lets your agent pull location intelligence anywhere in the world. You can resolve addresses and coordinates right through natural conversation. Instead of hitting a dozen external APIs, you use this connector to get instant data points for multiple countries. For instance, if you have a zip code, it delivers the corresponding city, state, and precise GPS coordinates.

If your input is a city name instead, it maps out all associated postal codes for that region. When you're building complex automations—say, validating shipping destinations before running billing logic—you can chain this MCP with others on Vinkius, giving full visibility into exactly what data flowed through and how many tokens were used.

Questions you might have

How can I find the latitude and longitude for a specific zip code? +

Use the get_location_by_postal_code tool. Provide the country code (e.g., 'us') and the postal code. The agent will return the city, state, and precise GPS coordinates.

Can I find all postal codes for a specific city? +

Yes. Use the get_postal_codes_by_city tool. You will need to provide the country, the state abbreviation (e.g., 'ca' for California), and the city name.

What format should I use for the country parameter? +

The API requires ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country codes. For example, use 'us' for the United States, 'de' for Germany, 'fr' for France, or 'br' for Brazil.

Do I need a special key or registration to use get_location_by_postal_code? +

No, you don't need any paid subscription or registration. This MCP uses a public API and simply requires you to pass 'PUBLIC' as the access key in your agent connection.

How does get_location_by_postal_code handle invalid or missing postal codes? +

If the provided zip code is not recognized, the tool will return a structured error message instead of failing. This allows your AI client to gracefully catch the failure and prompt the user for correct input.

What if I need to find postal codes in multiple states or provinces? +

You can use get_postal_codes_by_city by running separate calls, specifying each state/province combination. The tool is designed to query regional coverage based on the exact city and state parameters you pass.

Are there any performance limitations when I run many lookups with get_location_by_postal_code? +

While Vinkius includes token optimization for efficiency, remember that excessive calls to external APIs might hit rate limits. We recommend batching your requests or running them sequentially through your agent workflow.

Can I use get_postal_codes_by_city across different countries besides the US? +

Yes, this MCP supports international data using standard ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 codes for location scope. You just need to ensure your input parameters specify the correct country context.
