Available tools 7

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

send
send_fax
Send a fax to a US or Canada phone number. Accepts PDF, DOC, DOCX, JPG, JPEG, TXT files (max 10) as base64-encoded content.
send_free_fax
Send a free fax to a US or Canada number (no account required). Limited to 3 pages total and 2 sends per email/IP per day. Returns a job_id immediately, but the fax does NOT send until the sender clicks a confirmation link emailed to sender_email. The daily-limit check happens at click time, not at submission — a submitted fax may still be rejected if the limit is hit by then; the agent can detect this by calling check_fax_status after the user reports clicking the link. If the document exceeds the free page limit, the response will suggest using purchase_credits to buy a prepaid account.
account
get_account_balance
Get the current page balance and dollar amount balance for the authenticated account.
fax
check_fax_status
Check the delivery status of a previously sent fax using its job_id. No authentication required — the job_id is the unforgeable token.
purchase
purchase_credits
Start a prepaid credit purchase. If the request is authenticated, credits will be loaded into the authenticated account after PayPal payment. If the request is not authenticated, provide email and name to create a new prepaid account (or load credits into an existing one with the same email). Returns a PayPal payment URL the user must visit to complete the purchase.
sent
list_sent_faxes
List faxes previously sent by the authenticated account (most recent first). Includes faxes sent via MCP, REST API, and the prepaid web form. Free anonymous sends are not included.
supported
list_supported_formats
List all supported file formats that can be faxed.

GotFreeFax — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can GotFreeFax do?
It exposes 7 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: check_fax_status, get_account_balance, list_sent_faxes, list_supported_formats, purchase_credits, send_fax and 1 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 GotFreeFax 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 352 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect GotFreeFax?
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 GotFreeFax need an API key?
No. GotFreeFax completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 7 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is GotFreeFax?
It answers our handshake in 352 ms on average, which is faster than 40% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
Is GotFreeFax open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence 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.
