Common questions
Is Lumnix safe?
It passed 1 of 1 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 on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).
Is it still maintained?
The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.2.2) reached the registry 6 months ago.
Which apps can use it?
Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.
What can I use instead?

Why Lumnix
The old way: Subscribe to Jungle Scout for product research ($49/mo), Keepa for price history ($50/mo), some Chrome extension for Alibaba vetting ($20/mo), and a spreadsheet for margin math. Switch between tabs all day. Miss opportunities.
The Lumnix way: One API key. 19 tools. In your AI assistant. No dashboards. No Chrome extensions. No tab-hopping.
*"Find me wireless earbuds under $20 with high sales volume, low reviews, and a supplier on Alibaba with MOQ under 500"*
Your AI calls Lumnix. You get structured data with revenue estimates, competition analysis, and profit margins. You decide. Done.
What makes it different
- 🚫 No dashboards — Works inside Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, or any MCP client
- 📊 Keepa-powered — Real price history and BSR tracking, not estimates
- 🎯 Opportunity Score — 0-100 niche score based on demand, competition, and margin potential
- 🏭 Full sourcing pipeline — Amazon → Alibaba → AliExpress, all connected
- 💰 Profit calculator — Full P&L with FBA fees, shipping, PPC ads, refunds, and ROI
- ⚡ 30-second setup — No install. No config file editing. Just an API key and one JSON block
⚡ Quick Start
1. Get an API key (free)
Sign up at lumnix.dev — no credit card required. Get your key in 30 seconds.
2. Add to your MCP client
Claude Desktop — edit ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json:
{
"mcpServers": { "lumnix": { "command": "npx", "args": [ "mcp-remote", "https://lumnix.dev/api/mcp", "--header", "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" ] } } }
⚠️ Claude Desktop doesn't support remote MCP URLs natively. The
mcp-remotebridge (auto-installed by npx) makes it work. Requires Node.js installed.
Cursor — Settings → MCP → Add new global MCP server:
{
"mcpServers": { "lumnix": { "url": "https://lumnix.dev/api/mcp", "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" } } } }
Windsurf / Cline / any MCP client — same pattern as Cursor. URL + Bearer token header.
3. Start researching
Restart your AI client. Then just talk naturally:
*"Search Amazon for portable blenders with high sales and low reviews"*
That's it. No Docker. No config files to debug.
