Query the directory
from inside your AI.
A public Model Context Protocol server. Any agent — Claude, ChatGPT connectors, Cursor, Windsurf — searches 2,000+ AI tools mid-task, compares them, finds alternatives, and checks whether a tool is still alive before recommending it.
Add it as a custom connector (Streamable HTTP) in Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, or any MCP client — no install.

Six tools your agent can call
Read-only. Free. The same public data the site serves.
search_tools
Hybrid semantic search across 2,000+ AI tools. Ranked matches with pricing, rating, and category.
get_tool
The full profile for one tool: pricing, key features, the editor’s verdict and rating, last-verified date, and the link.
check_tool_status
Alive, deceased, or acquired — with shutdown date and cause, and live alternatives. The fact models get wrong most.
find_alternatives
Curated alternatives to any tool. If it shut down, you get live replacements — not a dead recommendation.
compare_tools
Two tools side by side, with the editor’s head-to-head verdict and bottom line when we have one.
list_tools
The top-rated active tools in a category or for a job role, with an optional pricing filter.
Try asking
- “Is Sora still available? If not, what should I use instead?”
- “Compare Claude and Grok.”
- “Best AI tools for sales.”
- “Find alternatives to Jasper.”
