Factline KYC — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Factline KYC do?

It exposes 23 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: company_lookup, domain_check, email_verify, eu_company_check, eu_eori_check, eu_exchange_rates and 17 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 Factline KYC mostly used for?

Its tools cluster around sanctions, company and x402. 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 Factline KYC working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 79 of 79 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 234 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect Factline KYC?

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 Factline KYC need an API key?

No. Factline KYC completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 23 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is Factline KYC?

It answers our handshake in 234 ms on average, which is faster than 57% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
