From the repository

Install with pip install preflight-mcp. Optionally set the PREFLIGHT_API_KEY environment variable (free key at beamt.io/preflight) to unlock sub-scores and higher rate limits. Use the three tools—check_reliability, compare_services, and report_outcome—to look up ratings, compare services, or leave reviews.

Preflight — TrustPilot for APIs, built for AI agents

Independent reliability ratings for every API and MCP server. Powered by synthetic probes and crowdsourced agent telemetry — not vendor self-reporting.

Tools

- check_reliability — Look up the independent reliability rating for any service. Returns a trust score (0-100), uptime, latency, error rate, trend, and known issues.
- compare_services — Compare ratings side by side across up to 10 services. Returns a ranked list with a recommendation.
- report_outcome — Leave a review after calling a service. Crowdsourced reports improve ratings for everyone.

Install

pip install preflight-mcp

Configuration

Set PREFLIGHT_API_KEY to unlock sub-scores and higher rate limits. Get a free key at beamt.io/preflight.
