Quiet is not dead — but it is worth knowing when it wakes up, or when someone else takes it over. We watch the repository and tell you either way.

Available tools 16

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

workflow
get_ai_workflow
Generate a step-by-step AI workflow for any profession, role, or business task. Uses GateOnAI's compatibility graph of 4,105,934 tool connections to recommend the optimal tool sequence.
get_workflow_template
Get one of GateOnAI's 2,817+ pre-built, ready-made AI workflows for a specific profession - a deterministic, ordered sequence of steps each matched to a real tool by category and GateOnAI Score, regenerated live from current tool data. Different from get_ai_workflow: this returns an existing, curated template for a known profession rather than generating a new custom one from free text - faster and more consistent for common roles.
analyze
analyze_ai_stack
Analyze a list of AI tools already in use as a stack: finds category overlaps (2+ tools doing similar work), real computed IO-compatibility connections between the specific tools given, and a pricing-type breakdown (free/freemium/paid counts only - GateOnAI does not track exact dollar pricing since it changes too often to state reliably). Always returns clear disclaimers about what the data does and does not cover.
compare
compare_ai_tools
Compare two AI tools head-to-head. Returns pricing, features, GateOnAI scores, pros/cons, and a recommendation on which tool to choose.
compatible
get_compatible_tools
Find AI tools that genuinely connect with a given tool, based on GateOnAI's IO-Compatibility Graph - a real, computed structural match between what one tool outputs and what another accepts as input (text, image, audio, video, code, etc.), not a category-similarity guess. Answers questions like 'what tools work well with ChatGPT' or 'what can I feed ChatGPT's output into'. Backed by 4,105,934+ real computed connections across the platform.
gdpr
get_eu_gdpr_tools
Find AI tools that are GDPR-compliant or EU-hosted. Essential for European businesses, healthcare, legal, and any use case requiring data sovereignty. All compliance data is manually verified by GateOnAI.
market
get_market_landscape
A real, computed statistical snapshot of one GateOnAI category: live tool count, real GateOnAI Score distribution (average/median/min/max), real pricing-type breakdown, and current top-scoring tools. Every number is computed directly from live catalog data at request time - never a prediction, estimate, or industry-wide claim beyond what GateOnAI itself catalogs.
match
match_prompt_to_task
Given a free-text description of a task (e.g. 'write a cold email to a client'), finds the best-matching existing prompt(s) from GateOnAI's verified prompt library using real BM25 full-text search - not a semantic guess or an invented relevance score. Each result includes the actual prompt text, which tool it's designed for, and the profession it comes from.
pipeline
find_ai_pipeline
Find a real, structurally computed sequence of AI tools that gets you from one type of content to another - e.g. audio to a finished blog post, or a single image to a full video. Powered by GateOnAI's IO-Compatibility Graph combined with a PostgreSQL recursive path-finding engine (not a guess, a template, or an LLM improvising) - each step is a real tool whose actual output type matches the next tool's actual input type, verified against real tagged data. Returns multiple ranked alternative pipelines, each scored on tool quality and path length, so you can compare a fast 2-step option against a more thorough 4-step one. Valid content types: text, image, audio, video, data, url, code, pdf, email, social_post, prompt, file.
prompts
get_prompts_for_profession
Get curated, ready-to-use AI prompts for a specific profession from GateOnAI's library of 19,693+ prompts across 57 professions. Works with ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and other LLMs.
similar
find_similar_by_philosophy
Find AI tools that are conceptually or philosophically similar to a given tool - based on real semantic embedding similarity of each tool's name and tagline (MiniLM), not just shared category. Different from get_compatible_tools, which uses the structural IO-Compatibility Graph (real input/output matching) rather than meaning-based similarity. Use this for 'tools like X' questions, get_compatible_tools for 'what connects to X' questions.
site
get_site_stats
Get current live statistics about the GateOnAI platform including total verified tools, categories, tool compatibility connections, and prompt library size.
tool
get_tool_details
Get comprehensive details about a specific AI tool by its URL slug. Returns full description, pricing, GateOnAI score breakdown, pros/cons, integrations, GDPR status, and FAQ.
tools
search_ai_tools
Search GateOnAI's database of 2,895+ verified AI tools. Find tools by name, use case, category, pricing model, or GDPR compliance status. Returns tool names, descriptions, pricing, GateOnAI scores, and direct URLs.
trending
get_trending_tools
Get the currently trending AI tools on GateOnAI based on real user engagement data. Returns the most actively explored tools this week across all categories.
whats
whats_new
See real AI tools recently added to GateOnAI - based on genuine addition timestamps, not a guess or a static list. Optionally filter by category. Useful for staying current on new tool launches or checking what's new in a specific space (e.g. new AI Agents tools this week).

GateOnAI — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can GateOnAI do?
It exposes 16 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: analyze_ai_stack, compare_ai_tools, find_ai_pipeline, find_similar_by_philosophy, get_ai_workflow, get_compatible_tools and 10 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 →
Is GateOnAI working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 111 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
Is GateOnAI still maintained?
The linked repository no longer exists on GitHub — it was deleted or made private. We show this because it changes what you can expect: an unmaintained server may keep answering for months and then stop without warning.
How do I connect GateOnAI?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address. You will need your own credentials: it refuses anonymous clients.
Does GateOnAI need an API key?
Yes. Every time we knock, GateOnAI answers with an authorization challenge instead of its tool list — that is how we know it is running and gated rather than broken. Bring your own credentials and it will talk.
How fast is GateOnAI?
It answers our handshake in 111 ms on average, which is faster than 90% of all working MCP servers we measure. That puts it in the quick quarter of the ecosystem. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
