Available tools 5

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

availability
check_availability
List the windows a Book It business accepts booking requests for, by date in the business's time zone, after its minimum notice and without its days off, for up to 14 days at a time. Each window has a window_id for request_booking. A window is when the business says it can take work, not a confirmed slot.
provider
find_provider
Find home-service and trade businesses enrolled in Book It that serve a US ZIP code for a trade, such as HVAC, plumbing, roofing or lawn care. Returns each business's name, phone, website, the services that match the stated need, and its next open request window. Only businesses that enrolled and list that ZIP in their own service area appear; the result states the ordering rule, which is a fair daily rotation and never paid placement. An empty list means no enrolled business covers that trade and ZIP yet.
quote
quote_range
Return the price range a Book It business entered for one of its services, labelled as the business's own range and not a quote. When the business entered no range, says so. Book It never estimates, averages or invents a price.
request
request_booking
Send a Book It business a booking request on a person's behalf. Collects only the person's name, phone, ZIP, what they need and a preferred time. The business receives it by email and in its inbox and confirms a time with the person directly; the request is never a confirmed appointment. Requires consent_confirmed true, which means the person read and agreed to the business's booking_consent_text (from get_services or check_availability). US and Canadian phone numbers only. A repeat request from the same phone to the same business within 24 hours returns the first request instead of sending another.
services
get_services
Get one Book It business's services with any price range the business entered, its service-area ZIPs, its weekly hours for requests, its next open window, and the consent text a person agrees to before a booking request is sent.

Book It — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Book It do?
It exposes 5 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: check_availability, find_provider, get_services, quote_range, request_booking. 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 Book It working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 83 of 91 checks got a reply (91.2%), average response time 268 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Book It?
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 Book It need an API key?
No. Book It completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 5 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Book It?
It answers our handshake in 268 ms on average, which is faster than 62% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
