Remote MCP server exposing dated AnsweringPrices.com data on answering services: vendors, plans, billing terms and cost comparisons at a chosen call volume.
What you can do
List answering service vendors (live, AI and hybrid) with entry plan, whether prices are published, and the date pricing was read
Read one vendor's published plans, overage, comparison cost at 50, 100 and 200 three-minute calls, and billing terms such as rounding, setup fee, contract and trial
Compare all vendors' costs at a chosen call volume and call length, lowest first, with quote-only vendors listed separately
Summarize the range, median and per-minute rate for live, AI or hybrid services at a given volume
When to use it
Useful when comparing answering services or estimating what a given call volume would cost, and you want dated, sourced figures and billing terms rather than a general web search.
Requirements
Remote streamable HTTP endpoint at the provider's site; no authentication, environment variables or headers are declared.
Before you install
Prices are snapshots read on a stated date and may be out of date; figures are the provider's own compilation, so verify against the vendor's terms page before committing. Some vendors are quote-only, and prepaid credit purchases are treated as upfront cost.
Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.
Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.
Use with an agent
Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.
Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/com.answeringprices%2Fpricing/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.
