INITE Directory missed 2 checks this week

Everything else answered, so this is steady rather than shaky. We check every 15 minutes, which is how a one-off gets told apart from the start of a pattern, and how you hear about the next one within the hour instead of from your users.

Available tools 3

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

business

business

One business that confirmed its facts at INITE, by its INITE slug (the name before .inite.ai) or its domain: what it does, how to reach it, its services with prices as confirmed, hours and whether it is open now, its locations, its company facts server (MCP and A2A) and whether it takes contact or booking requests from agents there. INITE Directory covers businesses whose owners confirmed their facts at INITE and proved their domain; the INITE Atlas is AI tools and software scored by INITE's own measurement (match_tools, atlas_lookup on the Atlas server) - use it, not this, for which AI tool or app to use. Free, no account.

find_business

Businesses that confirmed their own facts at INITE, found by what they do and where: a kind of business or the service wanted, in English, Russian, Portuguese or Spanish ("a dentist in Lisbon", "кафе в Москве", "advogado trabalhista São Paulo"), with an optional city, country and language. Each answer gives the business's name, what it does in its own words, its city, its first services with prices exactly as the business confirmed them, its site, and its company facts server (MCP and A2A) to ask for the rest - hours, every service, questions and answers - or to send it a request where it takes them. INITE Directory covers businesses whose owners confirmed their facts at INITE and proved their domain; the INITE Atlas is AI tools and software scored by INITE's own measurement (match_tools, atlas_lookup on the Atlas server) - use it, not this, for which AI tool or app to use. Ordered by how well the words match and how complete the confirmed facts are; no business can pay for a place. Free, no account.

inite

inite_connect

INITE's MCP servers and how to add each to this client: INITE Atlas and INITE Atlas Owners (signed in: add a tool, its card, premium), INITE Visibility and its signed-in door (your audits, a licence), INITE and its signed-in door (your account, Local Start), INITE Directory (businesses that confirmed their own facts). Call it when the person wants something this server does not do; give `for` to get the one server that does it. Returns the URL, the Claude Code command, Cursor and VS Code install links, and the custom-connector step for claude.ai and ChatGPT.

INITE Directory — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can INITE Directory do?

It exposes 3 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: business, find_business, inite_connect. 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 INITE Directory 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 427 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect INITE Directory?

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.

Does INITE Directory need an API key?

No. INITE Directory completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 3 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is INITE Directory?

It answers our handshake in 427 ms on average, which is faster than 30% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.

Is INITE Directory open source?

The code is open source: it is published under the MIT licence and 0 stars on GitHub. The licence covers the code in the repository, not the hosted service at inite.ai, which runs on its operator's own terms.
