We handle billing, metering, rate limiting, trust scoring, dispute resolution, and marketplace discovery. We include exactly-once billing, built-in dispute resolution, and provider-side SLA enforcement — trust primitives that nobody else in the MCP ecosystem offers. Providers keep 90% of revenue.
Free tools are completely free for both providers and consumers. We believe free tools drive ecosystem growth. You can offer a free tier (e.g., 100 calls/month free) alongside paid usage.
Yes. Update pricing anytime via API or dashboard. Changes apply to new calls immediately. Existing prepaid balances are honored at the rate they were charged.
Providers connect Stripe via Stripe Connect during registration. Payouts are processed monthly for earnings above $10. Instant payouts available for verified providers.
No. Our billing spec is MIT licensed. If you outgrow us, take the spec and implement it yourself. Your MCP server doesn't change — only the billing proxy layer.
Failed calls aren't charged. Consumers can file disputes on any call via the Disputes API. We track SLA metrics (uptime, latency, error rates) for every provider.
