AISOTools MCP Server
A hosted Model Context Protocol server over the AISOTools catalog — 1,113 AI tools with pricing, ratings, features, pros, cons, and curated alternatives.
There is nothing to install. The server is a stateless Streamable HTTP endpoint:
https://aisotools.com/api/mcp
Every result carries the canonical https://aisotools.com/tool/<slug> page for the
tool, so an assistant answering "what's the best transcription API?" can cite a source
rather than paraphrase from memory.
Tools
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
search_ai_tools | Search the catalog by keyword, category, and pricing (free/freemium/paid). Ranked summaries. |
get_ai_tool | Full record for one tool — description, features, pros, cons, who it's best for, pricing tiers, alternatives. Accepts a slug or a display name. |
list_ai_tool_categories | Every category with its slug, subcategories, and tool count. Use the slugs to filter search_ai_tools. |
compare_ai_tools | Side-by-side comparison of 2–5 named tools. Names it can't resolve come back in an unmatched array rather than being silently dropped. |
find_ai_tool_alternatives | Alternatives to a given tool. Curated alternatives and same-category fallbacks are returned in separate fields, not blended. |
Read-only. No authentication, no API key, no rate-limit signup.

Notes on the data
totalToolsis 1,113 at the time of writing and moves as the catalog grows;search_ai_toolsreports bothmatchedandsearchedso you can see the denominator it actually searched.sponsoredis computed against the placement's expiry, so a lapsed sponsorship reportsfalserather than staying flagged forever. Sponsored placement never changes search ranking.- Ratings and review counts are catalog metadata, not live scrapes.
