Questions

Does BuiltWith have an MCP server?

Yes. BuiltWith runs its own official MCP server at https://api.builtwith.com/mcp, so an AI assistant such as Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor can work inside BuiltWith with your own account and permissions.

What is the BuiltWith MCP server URL?

The server URL is https://api.builtwith.com/mcp. Paste it into your AI app as a custom connector or remote MCP server.

Do I need to sign in to use it?

Our check completed without a login, though BuiltWith may still ask you to sign in before it shares account data.

Is the BuiltWith MCP server working right now?

At our last check, 5 minutes ago, it was live. Completed an MCP handshake without a login. Some vendors still ask for an API key inside the tools themselves.

Is it safe to connect BuiltWith to AI?

An official server only lets the assistant see and do what your own BuiltWith account allows. Start read only, keep anything that sends, writes or spends credits on approval, and check whether your admin needs to approve the connection.
