Are AI capabilities included or extra?
According to the pricing page, AI usage is included and on by default from the entry (Core) package upward. AI Advisor, AI Communications Assistant, Translations, AI Alert Assessment and AI Risk Events appear in lower tiers, while AI Explore Assistant and MCP Server Access are listed only in Enterprise.
Does Everbridge offer an MCP server for our own AI tools?
