Read tracked products, competitor prices, monitored URLs and price history in Price2Spy. For e-commerce teams that monitor competitor prices with Price2Spy. Hosted by usefulapi — connect from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or any MCP client.
Team and Enterprise: an Owner adds the connector for the organization first.
Run this command, then run /mcp in Claude Code to log in:
Add to Cursor or add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"price2spy": {
"url": "https://price2spy.usefulapi.io/mcp"
}
}
}Add to VS Code or add this to .vscode/mcp.json:
{
"servers": {
"price2spy": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://price2spy.usefulapi.io/mcp"
}
}
}No Add custom MCP server option? It depends on your account or workspace settings: see OpenAI's guide.
Run these commands. The second one opens the login page:
Other MCP clients (Windsurf, Cline, Zed and more): add the URL as a remote MCP server (Streamable HTTP). The client then opens the login page in your browser. Do not add an Authorization header: see Before you connect.
List the tracked products with their target price and lowest competitor price. Then open the current prices of each product and see which shop is cheaper.
price2spy_get_products price2spy_get_current_pricing_data
Find the monitored URL of a SKU, then read its price history with stock status, shipping cost and promotion for each measurement.
price2spy_get_urls price2spy_get_measurements
List the monitored URLs with the shop, the last check time and the last error. Use the list to fix or remove broken product page links.
price2spy_get_urls
List the brands, categories and suppliers of the account. Then use the names as filters to list the products of one group.
price2spy_list_brands price2spy_list_categories price2spy_list_suppliers price2spy_get_products
The login page asks for your Client ID and Client Secret.
Find them in Price2Spy under Integrations > API. Your keys are used only to sign calls to the Price2Spy API on your behalf; they are never shown to anyone.
Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your Client ID and Client Secret. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.
Turn on the Price2Spy connector, then ask in plain words. The AI picks the tools.
| Tool | Type | What it does |
|---|---|---|
price2spy_get_products | read | Get products List the products tracked in Price2Spy with their brand, category, supplier, SKU, target price, cost price and lowest and highest competitor price. Filter by name, SKU, brand, category, supplier or price-change date. Uses POST /v1/get-products. |
price2spy_get_current_pricing_data | read | Get current pricing data Get the latest competitor prices: each matching product with every monitored URL, its shop name, last price, stock and the time of the check. Use this to compare your price with competitors. Uses POST /v1/get-current-pricing-data. Large accounts return a lot of data, so filter and keep limit low. |
price2spy_get_urls | read | Get monitored URLs List monitored product page URLs with the shop name, country, last check time, last error, and the last two price measurements. Search by product id, SKU, internal id or name. Uses POST /v1/get-urls. |
price2spy_get_measurements | read | Get price history of a URL Get the price history of one monitored URL: each measurement with price, currency, stock status, seller, shipping cost and promotion. Get the url_id from price2spy_get_urls. Uses POST /v1/get-measurements. |
price2spy_list_brands | read | List brands List the brands defined in this Price2Spy account, with ids. Use the names as filters in price2spy_get_products. Uses GET /v1/get-brands. |
price2spy_list_categories | read | List categories List the categories defined in this Price2Spy account, with ids. Use the names as filters in price2spy_get_products. Uses GET /v1/get-categories. |
price2spy_list_suppliers | read | List suppliers List the suppliers defined in this Price2Spy account, with ids. Use the names as filters in price2spy_get_products. Uses GET /v1/get-suppliers. |
price2spy_list_price_buckets | read | List price buckets List the price buckets (named price ranges) defined in this Price2Spy account, with ids. Price buckets are named price ranges (priceFrom, priceTo). Uses GET /v1/get-price-buckets. |
price2spy_usage_status | Usage status (free-tier meter) Report the caller's current usage: the plan, calls used this month, the limit of the plan (the free monthly cap or the Pro fair use limit), remaining, and whether the limit is reached. Read-only; does not count against the meter. | |
price2spy_request_feature | Request a missing feature Tell usefulapi that the user needs something the Price2Spy tools cannot do yet (a missing tool, field or filter). Call it only when the user asks for something none of the tools can do, and tell the user that you send the request. Do not call it for errors or for normal requests. Do not include personal data, credentials or customer records. Stored with the product name and the client type (for example Claude or Cursor), without the user's account. At most 5 requests per day. Does not count against the meter. | |
price2spy_upgrade | Upgrade to Pro (unlimited*) Get Pro: unlimited tool calls (fair use limit: 10,000 a month) on Price2Spy (the free tier caps monthly usage). Plans: "monthly" — $9/month; "yearly" — $90/year (2 months free). Cancel any time: Pro then runs to the end of the paid period, so it also suits a one-time job. *A fair use limit applies. For heavy use (near Pro's limit): "plus" or "plus_yearly" — Pro+, $39/month or $390/year, unlimited tool calls (fair use limit: 100,000 a month); an existing Pro subscription changes to Pro+ in place (needs confirm: true; the price difference for the rest of the period is charged at once). Otherwise returns a short link to open in your browser (it opens Stripe Checkout); after payment the account upgrades automatically. Does not count against the meter. | |
price2spy_cancel_subscription | Cancel the Pro subscription Cancel the caller's Price2Spy Pro subscription at the end of the paid period (no refund for the current period; Pro continues until then, then the free tier applies). Requires confirm: true. Run price2spy_upgrade later to undo the cancel before the period ends. Does not count against the meter. |
| Plan | Price | Limit |
|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | 50 tool calls / month |
| Proper user | $9/mo · $90/yr | Unlimited* |
*Pro fair use limit: 10,000 tool calls a month on this server. For more, write to [email protected].
Pro covers this Price2Spy server only. Subscribe with price2spy_upgrade (it returns a Stripe Checkout link). Cancel any time with price2spy_cancel_subscription: Pro continues to the end of the paid period, with no refund for the current period, and running price2spy_upgrade before then undoes the cancel. Or write to [email protected].
Find products that competitors sell for less. Review the price history of one competitor URL. Check which monitored URLs failed their last check. Filter products by brand, category or supplier. See what you can do for the details.
No. usefulapi is an independent service. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by Price2Spy. The server calls the Price2Spy API with your own Price2Spy access, so it sees only the data that your account can see.
Yes. In Claude, add this server's URL as a custom connector. In ChatGPT, add it as a custom MCP server in Plugins. Then log in once. Cursor, VS Code, Claude Code and Codex work too. See the setup steps.
The login page asks for your Client ID and Client Secret. See Before you connect for where to find them.
No. Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your Client ID and Client Secret. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.
The login stores them encrypted in the authorization grant of your connection. The server uses them to call the Price2Spy API for you and to derive a private account id for usage metering. usefulapi does not show them on any page or in any reply. To stop all access, remove the connector and change or delete these credentials in Price2Spy.
All 8 Price2Spy tools are marked read-only.
The Free plan gives 50 tool calls / month. Pro costs $9/mo or $90/yr, with unlimited tool calls (fair use limit: 10,000 tool calls a month), for this Price2Spy server only. Cancel any time: Pro then runs to the end of the paid period. Run price2spy_usage_status to see how many calls you used.
Ask the AI to run price2spy_upgrade: it returns a Stripe Checkout link. To cancel, run price2spy_cancel_subscription. Pro continues to the end of the paid period.
Tell the AI what you wanted to do. It can send the request with price2spy_request_feature. We store the text with the server name, the type of AI client and the tool you tried, not with your account, and read every request when we plan new tools. You can send up to 5 requests per day.
Any client that supports remote MCP servers (Streamable HTTP) with OAuth login: Claude (web and desktop), Claude Code, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf and others.
This is a Model Context Protocol endpoint — meant to be connected from an AI client, not opened in a browser. An invalid_token response at the URL is the auth gate working as designed; clients authenticate automatically.
