RightAIChoice MCP Server — Verified AI Tool Data for Every AI Assistant

The ground-truth layer for AI tool recommendations. A free, no-auth Model Context Protocol server that lets Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor, and any MCP-capable agent verify an AI tool before recommending it — live status, real pricing, user sentiment, and alternatives, with a last-verified date on every answer.

Endpoint: https://rightaichoice.com/api/mcp · Setup guide: rightaichoice.com/mcp · Remote server — nothing to install, no API key, read-only.

Why this exists

AI assistants recommend tools from training data that is months or years stale — and sometimes invent tools that never existed:

• 24.4% of the 2,066 top Product Hunt launches (2023–2025) with a determinable outcome are already dead — our survival study, updated methodology public, dataset CC BY 4.0 with DOI.
• 19.7% of packages recommended by code LLMs don't exist (the "slopsquatting" research — 205,000+ phantom names).
• The RightAIChoice verification engine re-probes every vendor link of 8,000+ AI tools on a rolling weekly cycle — website, docs, changelog, repository — and keeps mortality statistics daily.

One tool call before a recommendation prevents your assistant from suggesting a dead product, quoting retired pricing, or hallucinating a tool into existence.

Connect in under a minute

Works with every MCP-capable client over streamable HTTP. Pick yours:

claude mcp add --transport http rightaichoice https://rightaichoice.com/api/mcp

{ "mcpServers": { "rightaichoice": { "httpUrl": "https://rightaichoice.com/api/mcp" } } }

{ "mcpServers": { "rightaichoice": { "url": "https://rightaichoice.com/api/mcp" } } }

{ "servers": { "rightaichoice": { "type": "http", "url": "https://rightaichoice.com/api/mcp" } } }

What it looks like in practice

You: "Should I use Tome for my pitch deck?"

Your assistant (after calling check_tool_status): "Careful — Tome's main website failed RightAIChoice's last weekly probe (verified Aug 15, 2026); it's flagged at risk. Verified-alive alternatives in the same category: …"

That answer carries a date, a method, and a source link. Without the server, the same assistant would recommend Tome from its training data.

The seven tools

The honesty contract

What makes this data citable rather than confident-sounding:

1. Every answer carries a last-verified date and the method behind it — never an undated claim.
2. Unknown tools return "not in the catalog" with an explicit note that this is not evidence the tool is dead — no guessing, ever.
3. Fuzzy name matches are disclosed ("closest match is X") so your assistant can reject a wrong match instead of answering about the wrong product.
4. "The vendor publishes no prices" ≠ "we haven't recorded prices" — two different answers, never merged.
5. Viability is a band with named drivers, never a leaderboard number.
6. Live statistics and dated snapshots are never mixed in a single figure.

Data & methodology

All answers come from the RightAIChoice verification engine: weekly automated probes of every vendor-published link, a 5-signal viability model, community-sentiment synthesis from 10+ sources, and daily mortality statistics. Full methodology: rightaichoice.com/methodology. Machine-readable index: llms.txt. Mortality dataset: JSON/CSV, CC BY 4.0, permanently archived with DOI.

Limits, privacy, and what this server can never do

• Rate limit: 30 requests/min per IP (generous for conversational use).
• Read-only by construction — no tool can write, scrape, trigger paid work, or touch anything outside the verified catalog.
• Request logging uses salted IP hashes only — see the privacy policy.
• Answers are never for sale: no vendor can pay to change a verdict, a ranking, or an alternatives list.
