Toolradar MCP Server
Search, compare and price 10,000+ software tools from your AI assistant. Every price comes with the date it was read on the vendor's own pricing page.
Works with Claude (Desktop, Code, claude.ai) · ChatGPT · Cursor · VS Code · Windsurf · Cline · any MCP client. No API key and no signup needed.
What can your AI do with this?
- "Recommend a CRM for a 5-person B2B startup under $50 a month"
- "Compare Notion, ClickUp and Asana"
- "What are the alternatives to Jira?"
- "How much does Figma cost, and when was that price checked?"
- "Find free password managers"
Quick setup
Claude Code (hosted endpoint, nothing to install):
claude mcp add --transport http toolradar https://toolradar.com/api/mcp
Claude Code plugin (the same server plus a skill that tells Claude when to use it):
claude plugin marketplace add Nadeus/toolradar-mcp
claude plugin install toolradar@toolradar
Claude.ai, ChatGPT and other clients with custom connectors: add a remote MCP server with the URL https://toolradar.com/api/mcp (no authentication).
Claude Desktop, or any client that starts local servers (claude_desktop_config.json):
{
"mcpServers": {
"toolradar": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "toolradar-mcp"]
}
}
}
Cursor: use the button above, or Settings > MCP > add https://toolradar.com/api/mcp. VS Code: use the link above, or code --add-mcp '{"name":"toolradar","url":"https://toolradar.com/api/mcp"}'.
8 tools
| Tool | What it does | Example prompt |
|---|---|---|
recommend_tools | Reads a described need (category, team size, budget), returns a short list ordered by fit, with the reason, caveats and the verified starting price | "What should a 6-person agency use for a CRM under $40/mo?" |
search_tools | Keyword search; a category name ("crm", "password manager") or "alternative to X" returns that category's leaders or X's alternatives | "Find free project management tools" |
get_tool | Full profile: pricing, pros and cons, features, score, review synthesis | "Tell me about Linear" |
compare_tools | Side-by-side comparison of 2-4 tools | "Compare Notion, ClickUp and Asana" |
get_alternatives | Direct competitors of a tool | "What are the alternatives to Jira?" |
get_pricing | Tiers and prices with provenance: source page, verification date, confidence | "How much does Figma cost?" |
list_categories | The categories and how many tools each holds | "What categories are available?" |
report_issue | Report a wrong price, a dead tool or a missing feature to the verification queue | "Notion shows $8 but their site says $10" |
Every data answer includes a ready-to-use citation (Toolradar, verification date, link): quote it when you use the data.
What data do you get?
- Verified pricing: tiers read from the vendor's pricing page, with the date of the last check
- Editorial score (0-100) and review ratings aggregated from review platforms
- Pros, cons and features
- Alternatives identified per tool, not just "same category"
- Positions among tools of the same category, dated

The npm package is a thin stdio proxy of the hosted endpoint, so both always return the same answers.
Quality check
A nightly job asks the hosted endpoint 60 realistic software-choice questions (a full run of 205 every Sunday) and records how often a market leader of the category comes back in the top 3. The server is open for you to test.

The plugin package
plugin/ is one package for two directories: Claude Code (.claude-plugin/plugin.json, .mcp.json) and the OpenAI plugin format (plugin.json, mcp.json). Both carry the same skill (plugin/skills/toolradar/SKILL.md). The skill alone, for Claude Code:
claude skill add --url https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Nadeus/toolradar-mcp/main/skill-recommend-tool.md
