What it can do

Tool names and descriptions exactly as the server reported them on Nov 8, 2026. The maker wrote them, not us; we show them as plain text.

  • search_listings

    Search 90,000+ live US government surplus auction listings from 27 official sources. Supports keyword, category, state, ZIP-radius, and price filters.

  • get_listing

    Fetch a single listing by its BidProwl id or slug.

  • sold_comps

    Sold-price stats from 250,000+ closed government auctions, nearly all from the last 12 months. Category+state aggregates, or exact percentile comps for a live listing via listing_id.

  • flip_score

    BidProwl's deal score for a live listing, with its condition-adjusted tier.

  • get_api_usage

    This API key's plan, monthly call limit, calls used, calls remaining and when the quota resets (first of next month, UTC). Free to call: it does not count against the quota.

  • sold_comps_batch

    Up to 25 sold_comps lookups in one call (100 on Pro+), each costing one API call. Each query is a listing id, a tracked item slug ("forklift"), a category ("vehicles"), or text naming a tracked item ("2015 Ford F150"). Item-level and per-listing answers need Pro or Pro+; categori

  • get_sold_history

    The actual sold lots behind a comps number, newest close first: title, final price (cents), close date, state, source, BidProwl link. Pass one of category, item (tracked item slug) or q (free text, matched like a listing title), plus optional state. Paginate with cursor.

Common questions

Is BidProwl safe?

It passed 2 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.0.0) reached the registry 30 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?
