MCP server

MCP server for ApexApi — call 120+ AI models (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, DeepSeek, Qwen…) and read the live web (scrape / crawl / structured extract) from any MCP client, with one ak- API key and one prepaid balance.

Local (stdio)

Get a key at apexapi.dev/keys, then add to your MCP client config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "apexapi": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "apexapi-mcp"],
      "env": { "APEXAPI_API_KEY": "ak-..." }
    }
  }
}

Claude Code: claude mcp add apexapi -e APEXAPI_API_KEY=ak-... -- npx -y apexapi-mcp

Remote endpoint

Endpoint: https://api.apexapi.dev/mcp with header Authorization: Bearer ak-....

Responses use MCP Streamable HTTP framing (SSE) — clients like Claude Code handle this natively; it is not a plain-JSON REST endpoint.

Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http apexapi https://api.apexapi.dev/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer ak-..."

Available tools

ToolDescription
chatSend a prompt to any of the 120+ models on ApexApi (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, DeepSeek, Qwen, Mistral…). Use list_models to discover model slugs. Billed per token from the credit balance.
list_modelsLive catalog of all ApexApi models with type, context window, and USD pricing (per 1M tokens for chat). Filter by type to keep the list short.
get_balanceCurrent prepaid credit balance in USD. Balance is the only usage limit on ApexApi.
scrape_pageFetch any URL as clean, LLM-ready markdown (or html/text). Anti-bot handling is automatic. Billed per successful page ($0.002 standard, $0.008 stealth); failures are free.
crawl_siteCrawl same-domain pages from a seed URL into markdown. Waits up to 60s; if still running, returns a job id for check_job. Billed $0.005 per page, capped by limit. Full page set is at result_url.
extract_structuredReady-made structured JSON from Amazon, Walmart, Crunchbase, G2, Google Maps, or Zillow product/company/listing URLs. Billed $0.01 per record; failures free. Scrapers: amazon-product, walmart-product, crunchbase-company, g2-product, google-maps-business, zillow-property.
check_jobPoll a crawl_site or extract_structured job by id.
generate_imageGenerate an image from a text prompt. Returns a URL. Use list_models with type=image for available models and prices.
generate_speechText-to-speech via ElevenLabs. Returns an MP3 URL. Billed per 1,000 characters.

Notes

  • Costs come from the same credit balance as the REST API and playground.
  • Guardrails and per-key limits apply, same as any other call on your ak- key.
  • claude.ai custom connectors (OAuth) are not yet supported — use Claude Code, or any MCP client that takes a bearer key, for the remote endpoint.
