Flow by MCP
Fuel answers for trucking inside the AI you already use. The ValveRide Flow MCP server is a connector in Claude and an app in ChatGPT, and any MCP client or app of your own can connect with the server URL. Ask for live diesel prices by state or a stop-by-stop fuel plan with exact gallons, from the same engine the fleets run on.
