Send faxes from your AI agent
SendThisFax speaks MCP. Connect Claude Code, Codex or any MCP client and let your agent prepare the fax — you only click the payment link.

Connect
The MCP endpoint is https://www.sendthisfax.com/mcp (streamable HTTP, no authentication required).
Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http sendthisfax https://www.sendthisfax.com/mcp
Codex (~/.codex/config.toml)
[mcp_servers.sendthisfax]
url = "https://www.sendthisfax.com/mcp"
How it works
- Your agent uploads the PDF over plain HTTP — curl, fetch, any client:
curl -F "[email protected]" https://www.sendthisfax.com/api/upload
- It calls the
send_faxtool with the recipient fax number, and receives a one-time payment link. - You open the link and pay — no account, no subscription.
- The agent polls
get_fax_statusuntil the fax is delivered. If delivery fails, you are refunded automatically.
Tools
get_price— price quote for a page count and billing country, VAT included.send_fax— submits an uploaded PDF and returns the payment link.get_fax_status— live status: pending, sending, delivered or failed.check_balance— remaining prepaid credit (API-key mode only).
Autonomous mode with an API key
With prepaid credits there is no payment link at all: connect with your API key and send_fax debits your balance and sends immediately. Failed faxes are re-credited.
claude mcp add --transport http sendthisfax https://www.sendthisfax.com/mcp \
--header "Authorization: Bearer stf_live_..."
Buy credits and get your key on the API credits page. A REST API is also available: POST https://www.sendthisfax.com/api/v1/faxes. Check your balance and fax history on the dashboard.
Good to know
- PDFs up to 50 MB and 1000 pages; encrypted PDFs are rejected.
- Pricing is €5.00 for up to 5 pages plus €0.50 per extra page, plus VAT by billing country — same as on the website.
- A plain JSON status endpoint is also available:
GET https://www.sendthisfax.com/api/fax/:fax_id - Use
+19898989898as recipient for integration tests.
