Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Find developer tools, APIs, MCP servers and SaaS by need, with pricing, free tier and API facts.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

What it can do

Tool names and descriptions exactly as the server reported them on Nov 7, 2026. The maker wrote them, not us; we show them as plain text.

  • search_products

    Search the directory with a natural-language query and optional structured filters (category, free tier, API, MCP, open source). The query is matched by full-text and semantic similarity, so phrasing it like a need ("send transactional email with a free tier") works well. Returns

  • get_product

    Every field of one product by slug.

  • compare_products

    Put 2 to 6 products side by side on pricing, free tier, API, MCP, SDK and open source. Returns the full records plus a field-by-field table keyed by slug.

  • find_alternatives

    Products similar to a given one (vector similarity), with optional filters. Nearest neighbours of the product's embedding; falls back to the same category when the vector index is unavailable.

  • submit_product

    Submit a product URL to be crawled and listed. No account needed. The site is crawled and the listing is usually live within a minute; poll status_url.

  • report_outdated

    Flag a listing as outdated or wrong; triggers a re-crawl. A re-crawl runs at most once per hour per product; the report is always recorded.

Common questions

Is toolgrep 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 (0.4.0) reached the registry 16 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?

In the same category: Spec Driven Development, Remote Desktop Commander, Foliosio
