Present of AI for developers

A free, read-only API and a remote MCP server over our sourced database of about 4,900 AI companies (around 4,000 with a full Spotlight), open AI jobs and dated AI news. No key, no sign-up. Each result carries the presentofai.com page it comes from, so an app or an assistant can answer a question and point the reader to the source.

License and attribution

The data is released under CC BY 4.0. Please credit "Present of AI" and link to the presentofai.com page you used (every result has a page_url). Every response also includes source, attribution, license and url fields.

Data reports

Prefer finished analysis to raw endpoints? Reports are computed from the same data (hiring, funding, countries, Y Combinator batches). Each one has tables, a plain-English reading and a CSV download at /reports/<slug>/data.csv, under the same CC BY 4.0 licence.

Live counter widget

Want a ready-made number instead of an endpoint? The live AI counter (open AI jobs, companies hiring now, new jobs, top countries and sectors, refreshed hourly) can be embedded with one iframe. Copy the snippet from the embed page; it carries a followable credit link and the same CC BY 4.0 licence.

curl

curl "https://presentofai.com/api/v1/companies?q=clinical+documentation&country=Australia&limit=5"

Python

import requests

r = requests.get(
    "https://presentofai.com/api/v1/companies",
    params={"q": "voice agents", "stage": "seed", "hiring": "true", "limit": 5},
    timeout=20,
)
r.raise_for_status()
data = r.json()
for c in data["companies"]:
    print(c["name"], "-", c["one_liner"], c["page_url"])
print(data["attribution"])

JavaScript

const res = await fetch(
  "https://presentofai.com/api/v1/jobs?role=Engineering&place=Remote&limit=5"
);
const { jobs, attribution } = await res.json();
for (const j of jobs) console.log(j.title, j.company, j.page_url);
console.log(attribution);

Rate limit

60 requests per minute per IP address, with a burst of 60. Over the limit you get HTTP 429 with a Retry-After header and a JSON body. Bad input returns 400 and an unknown company returns 404, both as JSON. If you need more, or a bulk copy, use the open dataset or get in touch.

MCP server

Connect an AI assistant with the Model Context Protocol. Endpoint https://presentofai.com/mcp(Streamable HTTP, no authentication). Ask your assistant things like "which AI startups work on clinical documentation in Australia" and it can search, then cite our pages.

• search_ai_companies: Find companies by topic, sector, country, stage, founding year or hiring.
• get_company: Full public profile of one company by slug.
• list_sectors_countries: Valid sector and country filter values with counts.
• find_ai_jobs: Open roles by keyword, company, function and place.
