Overview

AI-generated overview

A local MCP server that gives an assistant verified pricing, plans, ratings and alternatives for 494 SaaS and AI tools from the ComparEdge catalog.

What you can do
Search the catalog by name, keyword or use case, and fetch a full profile for one product by slug, including per-token API pricing for LLM entries and verification dates on prices. Retrieve every plan for a product with price, billing period, features, trial and free-plan status. Compare two products side by side on pricing, features and ratings, or list top-rated alternatives in the same category. Browse a category with a pricing overview, filter to free plans, and view leaderboards overall or per category, or list all 44 category slugs. Four bundled prompts run common workflows: find the best tool for a use case, compare pricing plan by plan, evaluate a tool, and give a category overview.
When to use it
Useful when you need current, vendor-checked prices and plan details for SaaS or AI tools rather than the assistant's possibly outdated training data, for example budgeting a team plan, shortlisting a CRM with a free tier, or planning a switch away from a product.
Requirements
Runs as a local process over stdio, installed from the npm package @comparedge/mcp-server, typically launched with npx, so Node.js and network access are needed. No API key, account or environment variables are required.
Before you install
All eight tools are read-only lookups against the catalog, so nothing is written or changed. Prices and plans come from a third-party catalog and are re-verified on a rolling schedule, so confirm figures on the vendor's own page before relying on them for a purchase decision.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open ComparEdge in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.

Other MCP clients

Follow the launch instructions in the repository.

README

ComparEdge MCP Server

[npm version] [smithery] [License: MIT] [dependencies]

Your assistant already knows what Notion is. It does not know that Notion Plus costs $12 a seat this month, or that the tool you are evaluating quietly dropped its free plan in spring. Training data ages; prices move. This server closes that gap with verified pricing, plans, ratings and alternatives for 494 SaaS and AI tools, checked against vendor pages before they ship. Live docs and examples: comparedge.com/mcp.

Zero dependencies, no API key, no account. Works in Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code and any other MCP client.

Install

Add one block to your client config:

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "comparedge": {      "command": "npx",      "args": ["-y", "@comparedge/mcp-server@latest"]    }  }}

Claude Desktop keeps this file at ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json. Cursor: Settings, then MCP, then Add Server. VS Code with Copilot reads .vscode/mcp.json. Per-client walkthroughs live in the setup guide.

What you can ask

Once connected, questions like these stop producing guesses and start producing verified numbers:

  • How much does Slack cost for a team of 40 on annual billing?
  • Find me a CRM under $20 per user that still has a real free plan.
  • I want to leave Salesforce. What do people switch to, and what does the move cost?
  • Which AI coding assistants are top rated right now?
  • Compare Notion and Coda plan by plan.

Tools

Eight tools, each a read-only lookup against the catalog.

Products are addressed by slug: notion, github-copilot, screaming-frog. When in doubt, search_tools first. Category slugs double as public pages a human can open, for example the LLM category hub. LLM entries carry per-token API pricing on top of the plan data.

Prompts

Four workflows ship as prompts your client can expose as slash commands:

Where the data comes from

The catalog is maintained by ComparEdge. Every price traces to the vendor's own pricing page, harvested from the live DOM and re-verified on a rolling schedule; each record carries its verification date. The pipeline is documented in the methodology, and the full catalog ships as an open dataset under CC BY 4.0. If a tool is not a fit, the alternatives hub covers switch paths for the whole catalog.
