Can an AI assistant vote or pay for me?

No. Votes come only from people on the site, and payments happen on a checkout page you open and pay yourself. The API returns the checkout link.

Will Business Listing Finder run inside Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or VS Code?

Yes. Your app needs only the MCP server URL, added as a custom connector or MCP server. Reads work straight away; your first write opens a browser where you connect your account.

Is there a developer API on Business Listing Finder?

Yes: there is a free REST API at /api/v1 with an OpenAPI description, and a remote MCP server at /mcp. Public data is readable without signing in, while changing your own listings needs your account, through OAuth or an API key.

Will the AI invent details of my product?

Avoiding that is how the draft is built: it works only from your own website, marks and leaves blank what it cannot verify, and nothing goes live until you have reviewed every field and changed what you want.

The API and the MCP server are free: there is no charge within the published rate limits. What you buy, such as a paid launch, is priced on the pricing page.

Find your way: the Business Listing Finder API and MCP

Work with Business Listing Finder in code or through an AI assistant: search all launches, read leaderboards and founder stories, submit a product by its website address, edit your listing, and get the checkout link for a paid launch. The REST API and the MCP server are equal, and the rules are the same for both.

MCP server: https://businesslistingfinder.com/mcp (Streamable HTTP)
REST API: https://businesslistingfinder.com/api/v1
OpenAPI 3.1: https://businesslistingfinder.com/api/v1/openapi.json
Sign-in: OAuth 2.1 for apps, or a personal key from API keys
Version: 1.0.0 (changelog)

Using an AI assistant

Register https://businesslistingfinder.com/mcp as a custom connector or MCP server in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code or any MCP client and start asking: “What launched this week in my category?”, “Find alternatives to my competitor”, “Launch my product https://example.com”. Reading works straight away; when you first change something your app opens a browser so you can connect your account. Step-by-step for each app.

What stays fixed

The API cannot charge anyone. It returns a checkout link; paying, and entering card details, is done by the person on that page.
AI drafts show their evidence from the product's own website. Missing facts are marked and left blank, and the AI never makes anything up.
Ask list_products for prices. They match the pricing of Business Listing Finder, are counted in US dollar cents, and leave VAT out.
The billboard and sponsorships are labelled as paid placements. Rankings by the community are decided only by votes.
Voting is closed to the API and the MCP server. On Business Listing Finder, votes come only from people who are on the site.
