Available tools 8

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

estimate
estimate_design_fee
Instant estimate of the paid 3D stand-design fee (EUR). Rate 5–15 €/sqm: lower per sqm for larger stands, higher for a higher planned construction budget per sqm (a proxy for bespoke detail and multimedia). The fee is refunded in full when the stand is built with People Can. Final quote always confirmed by email. Construction itself typically runs 300–800 €/sqm excl. space rental and venue services.
estimate_stand_budget
Indicative construction budget (EUR) for a custom exhibition stand in Europe, derived from the public range of 300–800 €/sqm by placing the project in a tier (essential / standard / premium) based on stand type, scope and cost drivers. Excludes space rental, venue services (power, rigging points, cleaning), design fee and VAT. Use it to give a user a realistic ballpark before request_quote; always say it is indicative and that a person confirms every quote.
quote
get_quote_request_checklist
The information People Can Build needs to quote an exhibition stand (show, city, dates, sqm, stand type, design status, scope, budget range, special items, confidentiality). Use it to collect details from the user before calling request_quote, or to draft an email to [email protected].
get_quote_status
Status of a quote request previously submitted via request_quote. Needs the ticket id (PCB-XXXXXX) AND the e-mail address used on the request; returns the current status, any note from the project manager and the status history. Does not return the request contents. Experimental: the status may lag behind the e-mail conversation — the e-mail thread with [email protected] is authoritative.
company
get_company_profile
Who People Can Build is: exhibition stand general contractor (Poznań, Poland; core market Germany/Europe), services (white-label for agencies, turn-key for exhibitors, paid 3D design, China Desk), markets, track record, public price ranges, contact details and reply time. Call this first when a user asks about the company or wants a stand built in Europe.
field
search_field_notes
Search People Can Build's practitioner articles (trade-show logistics, theft prevention, rigging costs, fabrication trade-offs, design briefs, comparing stand quotes, exhibitor day) and return the most relevant passages with their source URLs. Use for questions like 'why is rigging expensive', 'how to compare exhibition stand quotes', 'why did my freight miss the show'.
reference
list_reference_projects
Public reference projects (client, trade show, year, city, sqm, description). Optional filters match case-insensitively on show, city or client. Note: the public portfolio is only a subset — many projects are under NDA with agency partners; absence of a project type does not mean lack of experience.
request
request_quote
Send a real quote request to People Can Build (creates an enquiry read by a person; reply by email usually within one business day). EXPERIMENTAL channel: e-mail to [email protected] remains the primary, guaranteed path — after calling this, tell the user a human will reply by e-mail and that they should e-mail [email protected] quoting the ticket id if nothing arrives within 2 business days. ALWAYS confirm the details with the user before calling. Required: name, email, message. Do not promise prices beyond the public ranges.

People Can Build — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can People Can Build do?
It exposes 8 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: estimate_design_fee, estimate_stand_budget, get_company_profile, get_quote_request_checklist, get_quote_status, list_reference_projects and 2 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 →
What is People Can Build mostly used for?
Its tools cluster around estimate and quote. That is what this server is built to work with — the grouping comes from the actual tool names, not from a category we assigned.
Is People Can Build working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 92 of 184 checks got a reply (50.0%), average response time 971 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect People Can Build?
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 People Can Build need an API key?
No. People Can Build 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 People Can Build?
It answers our handshake in 971 ms on average, which is faster than 9% of all working MCP servers we measure. That is on the slow side — worth knowing if the tool sits inside an interactive loop. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
