Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check Attic Standard every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

index
get_index_benchmarks
The Attic Standard price indexes for AI inference: every published index at the week the site shows. Six families: Modality (text, multimodal, image, video, audio, voice, embeddings), Channel (model developers, cloud marketplaces, inference platforms, neoclouds), Tier (flagship, core, compact), License (open weights, restricted weights, proprietary), Origin (United States, China) and Use case (reasoning, coding). For each index and direction (input, cached input, output) it returns the benchmark level (May 2026 = 100) with week, month and vs-base changes, the spot price (median, p25, p75 in dollars) with its own week, month and vs-base changes, and coverage counts with the May 2026 basket size, flagged where the basket has changed materially since the base. Free: fully public, the same figures atticstandard.com publishes. Token prices are per 1,000 tokens; other modalities use their own unit (per image, per second, per minute, per 1,000 characters). Examples: - "Where is text inference priced this week?" -> index_code="TXT" - "Compare the four channels" -> index_category="Channel" - "Open-weight versus proprietary" -> index_category="License"
get_index_constituents
What sits inside an index basket this week. Free tier: the composition (SKUs, models and vendors, split by channel, origin, tier and license). Attic Standard MCP PRO: the model-by-model basket with the vendors selling each model. Examples: - "What is in the flagship index?" -> index_code="FLG" - "How much of the China index is sold through neoclouds?" -> index_code="CHN"
model
get_model_detail
One model in depth: specs (creator, origin, tier, license, context window, output limit, training cutoff, modalities), the Attic Standard indexes it belongs to, and its price at every vendor. Free tier returns counts, ranges and redacted samples; Attic Standard MCP PRO ($500/month, https://atticstandard.com/mcp) returns vendor names, model names and exact prices.
get_model_intelligence
Six capability and coverage measures drawn from the metadata behind every tracked model: reasoning tier share, long-context saturation, frontier context ceiling, output ceiling spread, training cutoff lag and vendor modality breadth. Read alongside the market KPIs, they explain why models are priced the way they are. Free: fully public, the same figures atticstandard.com publishes.
compare
compare_prices
The same model, or a whole family, priced across every vendor that sells it: cheapest and dearest offer, vendor count and spread ratio for each direction, plus each offer with its channel. Free tier returns counts, ranges and redacted samples; Attic Standard MCP PRO ($500/month, https://atticstandard.com/mcp) returns vendor names, model names and exact prices. Token prices are per 1,000 tokens; other modalities use their own unit (per image, per second, per minute, per 1,000 characters). Examples: - "Cheapest place to run Llama 3.3 70B" -> model_name="Llama 3.3 70B" - "Qwen family output prices" -> model_family="Qwen", direction="Output"
kpis
get_kpis
The nine market KPIs Attic Standard publishes each week. - Price structure: output premium, caching discount, caching availability - Price dynamics: repricing activity, repricing depth, post-launch drift - Competition: multi-vendor spread, first-party premium, marketplace premium Each KPI returns its value, interquartile range, population, week, month and vs-base changes, and its published definition. Free: fully public, the same figures atticstandard.com publishes.
market
get_market_stats
Coverage of the tracked market (active vendors by channel, countries, models, priced SKUs, published indexes) and price distributions split by modality, unit and direction. Free tier returns counts, ranges and redacted samples; Attic Standard MCP PRO ($500/month, https://atticstandard.com/mcp) returns vendor names, model names and exact prices. Token prices are per 1,000 tokens; other modalities use their own unit (per image, per second, per minute, per 1,000 characters).
models
search_models
Search every priced SKU by modality, vendor, channel, creator, family, tier, license, origin, reasoning, open weights, direction, maximum price and minimum context window. Cheapest first. Free tier returns counts, ranges and redacted samples; Attic Standard MCP PRO ($500/month, https://atticstandard.com/mcp) returns vendor names, model names and exact prices. Token prices are per 1,000 tokens; other modalities use their own unit (per image, per second, per minute, per 1,000 characters). Examples: - "Open-weight text models under $0.0005 per 1,000 output tokens" -> open_source="true", modality="Text", direction="Output", max_price=0.0005 - "Chinese reasoning models on neoclouds" -> origin="China", reasoning="true", channel="Neocloud"
price
get_price_history
Weekly history. With index_code: the index series (benchmark level, May 2026 = 100, and the spot price with its 25th and 75th percentiles) for up to 260 weeks; free. With model_name: every vendor's price for that model week by week, showing when each SKU was repriced; Attic Standard MCP PRO. Token prices are per 1,000 tokens; other modalities use their own unit (per image, per second, per minute, per 1,000 characters). Examples: - "How has the neocloud index moved since May?" -> index_code="NCL" - "Has anyone cut the price of DeepSeek V3 this quarter?" -> model_name="DeepSeek V3", weeks=13
vendor
get_vendor_catalog
Everything one vendor sells: channel, country, pricing page, model and SKU counts, and the full price list. Free tier returns counts, ranges and redacted samples; Attic Standard MCP PRO ($500/month, https://atticstandard.com/mcp) returns vendor names, model names and exact prices. Token prices are per 1,000 tokens; other modalities use their own unit (per image, per second, per minute, per 1,000 characters).
vendors
list_vendors
Every vendor in the Attic Standard fleet with its channel (model developer, cloud marketplace, inference platform or neocloud), country, region and pricing page. Filter by channel, region or country.

Attic Standard — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Attic Standard do?
It exposes 11 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: compare_prices, get_index_benchmarks, get_index_constituents, get_kpis, get_market_stats, get_model_detail and 5 more. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
What is Attic Standard mostly used for?
Its tools cluster around index and model. That is what this server is built to work with — the grouping comes from the actual tool names, not from a category we assigned.
Is Attic Standard working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 92 of 92 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 401 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Attic Standard?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Attic Standard need an API key?
No. Attic Standard completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 11 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Attic Standard?
It answers our handshake in 401 ms on average, which is faster than 31% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
Is Attic Standard open source?
We cannot say either way: written in TypeScript and 0 stars on GitHub, but we could not determine the licence, and without one the code is not open source by default.
