If a tool disappears, we record the date.
airport
get_airport
Getting a ride at an airport. Where Uber and Lyft pick up, how the taxi rank works, flat taxi fares, drop-off and pickup charges for cars, meet and greet rules, public transport into the city with prices, and tips, from each airport's own pages.
best
best_time_to_ride
Cheapest time of day to take a ride. For New York, typical Uber and Lyft prices for a trip of a given length at every hour of the week, from the city's trip records, with the cheapest and most expensive hours today and whether waiting saves money. For other cities, how the taxi meter rates change by time of day.
cities
list_cities
Cities and airports covered. Every city whose official taxi tariff is on file and every airport with ground transport facts.
driver
check_driver_licence
Check a New York taxi or ride-app driver's licence. Whether a TLC licence number is active on New York City's daily open data for for-hire (Uber, Lyft, car service) and taxi drivers, its expiry date, and, if a name is given, whether it matches (the name on the licence is never returned). Other cities get the official way to check.
estimate
estimate_fare
What a trip should cost by taxi, Uber or Lyft. Distance and time by road between two places, the licensed taxi meter fare with the extras that apply at that hour, any airport flat fare, typical Uber and Lyft prices in New York, airport pickup rules, a pre-booked transfer option for airport trips, and links that open Uber, Lyft or public transport directions with the trip filled in.
fare
check_fare
Was I overcharged? Check a fare that was paid. Compares what was paid with the official meter tariff, the airport flat fare or New York's typical Uber and Lyft prices for the same trip and hour, gives a verdict (fair, high or overcharged), the next steps for that company or city regulator, and a short message to send asking for a refund.
fleet
check_fleet_file
Check a cab firm's fleet.json. Reads a taxi or minicab firm's fleet.json (the open format at fairfare.pages.dev/fleet that lets assistants find and book local firms directly) and lists anything to fix.
taxi
get_taxi_tariff
A city's official taxi meter tariff. The starting charge, the rate per mile or kilometre, the waiting rate, time-of-day tariffs, extras and surcharges, flat fares, tipping custom and the official source.

How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is Fair Fare 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 27 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Fair Fare?
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 Fair Fare need an API key?
No. Fair Fare completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 8 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Fair Fare?
It answers our handshake in 27 ms on average, which is faster than 99% 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.
Is Fair Fare open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in JavaScript and 0 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
