What it can do

Tool names and descriptions exactly as the server reported them on Nov 12, 2026. The maker wrote them, not us; we show them as plain text.

search_skus
Find VPS plans, GPU instances or LLM models by name/id substring, category (vps|gpu|llm) and provider. Active SKUs on the provider's public price page or product API by default (listing filter). Returns each match's current list price, listing_status, unit and currency, verified_
get_price
Current list price of one SKU (id like vps/ovhcloud/vps-2027-model2 or llm/official/anthropic/claude-sonnet-5-5) with all secondary prices, USD/EUR equivalents, spec, source URL, verified_at, a stale flag that is true when the source's latest fetch failed (the price shown is then
get_history
Price change points of a SKU over the last N days (default 90): each row is when a price started to hold, with USD/EUR and the FX rate used. Rows are change points, not daily samples. Returns an error object for an unknown id.
list_changes
Dated price changes, new SKUs, delistings and spec changes, newest first. Each row says when the change was first seen and the previous good snapshot it is measured against, plus the source id. Filter by since (ISO date), kind, category and provider.
cheapest_for_spec
Cheapest active SKUs meeting a minimum spec, ranked by list price only (no sponsorship, no affiliate weighting), excl. VAT (VAT-inclusive plans are ranked after removing their stated VAT rate; rank.vat_basis says so). gpu and vps default to commitment=on-demand: spot, reserved, c
estimate_cost
Itemised cost of a usage profile at the SKU's current list price: tokens (input/output/cached) for LLM SKUs, hours/months for instances. Returns line items with the rates used, native, USD and EUR totals, verified_at and source_url. Pure arithmetic on stored prices; excl. VAT unl
get_index
A named daily index series (e.g. eu-vps-floor-2c4g, h100-list-median, frontier-input-floor) with its latest value, the number of constituents and the constituents themselves, so the value can be recomputed. Omit series to list all series with their latest values.

Common questions

Is Rack Rates 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 (0.1.0) reached the registry 20 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 on the web (full MCP on Business and above; Pro read-only).

What can I use instead?
