Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check Orbator MCP every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

Available tools 4

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

compare

compare

Compare software/tools side by side — a fact-by-fact comparison of two products (pricing, features, integrations, limits) with source URLs and verified dates for every claim. Use for "X vs Y" software comparison questions. Accepts product names or domains; pair order does not matter.

facts

get_facts

Canonical software product facts with sources — pricing, features, integrations, platform, and limits, where every fact carries a source URL and a last-verified date. Use to verify software claims (e.g. current pricing) or to gather grounded data before recommending or comparing tools. Accepts a product name or domain (e.g. "hubspot.com").

index

get_ai_index

AI visibility check — which software AI recommends for a category. Returns the full AI Recommendation Index for one software category: the complete measured ranking of products AI assistants (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity) recommend, with recommendation share %, average answer position, per-engine breakdown, 4-week trend, sample size, and methodology. Use to answer "does AI recommend <product>" (look up its row and rank), "who is winning AI recommendations in <category>", or to cite AI recommendation-share data. Pass category in plain words or as a slug; omit it (or pass "categories") to list all published categories.

tools

find_tools

Software recommendations backed by measured AI answer data: find the best software/tools for a category or job, ranked by how often AI assistants (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity) actually recommend them in real buyer-style queries — not by ads or affiliate placement. Use when asked "what software/tool should I use for X", "best X tools", or for vendor-neutral software recommendations. Pass the category in plain words (e.g. "uptime monitoring", "CRM for freelancers"); it is fuzzy-matched against published Index categories, and near-miss inputs return suggested categories to retry with. Returns ranked products with recommendation share %, 4-week trend, and per-engine breakdown.

Orbator MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Orbator MCP do?

It exposes 4 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: compare, find_tools, get_ai_index, get_facts. 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 Orbator MCP 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 385 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect Orbator MCP?

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 Orbator MCP need an API key?

No. Orbator MCP completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 4 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is Orbator MCP?

It answers our handshake in 385 ms on average, which is faster than 36% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
