Questions

OpenVan, answered

Is there a OpenVan MCP server?

APIANT's MCP server at https://mcp.apiant.ai works with OpenVan. Add that address to any AI client that takes a remote MCP server and sign in once in your browser. Your client can then run OpenVan actions on demand, or have APIANT build, test and run automations that use OpenVan. Nothing to install.

What can your agent do in OpenVan?

Any of OpenVan's 18 actions, including Calculate route cost, Check visa requirement, Compare food prices and Find news stories. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.

Can I use OpenVan directly from Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?

Yes. Connect your AI client to APIANT once and it works with OpenVan two ways. Ask it to do something in OpenVan once and it runs that action on the spot. Ask for an automation and your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running on its own. A one-off action uses your plan's tasks the same way an automation step does.

Do I need to write code against the OpenVan API?

No. APIANT connects to the OpenVan API for you. Describe what you want in plain language and your agent builds it on the OpenVan triggers and actions in the catalog. If you need an endpoint that is not there yet, your agent reads the OpenVan API documentation and adds it.

Which apps can OpenVan connect to?

Any app in the catalog; the list on this page pairs OpenVan with each of them. If the other app is missing, point your agent at its API documentation and it builds the connector.

What happens when something fails?

Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. Every plan includes the agent, including free, and building from your own AI client spends no assistant credits.
