What it costs
FreeOdel charges nothing per call. The publisher may charge for its own service.
Runs locally over stdio
This server isn't hosted — your MCP client launches it from a package registry. Use one of the commands below, or drop the config into your client (e.g. Claude Desktop).
Distributed as an MCP bundle (`https://github.com/gitdhillonai/knowfirm-mcp/releases/download/v0.1.0/knowfirm-mcp-0.1.0.mcpb`) — download it and import the bundle in your MCP client.
KnowFirm MCP
Business lookup and search over KnowFirm's U.S. public-record API. Two read-only tools: business_lookup and business_search. Each call uses 1 credit on your KnowFirm account. No card or payment credentials are handled by this package.
Sign in at https://knowfirm.com/login and create an API key in the dashboard. Configure your MCP client:
{
"mcpServers": {
"knowfirm": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@persooninc/knowfirm-mcp@0.1.0"],
"env": {"KNOWFIRM_API_KEY": "YOUR_OWN_KEY"}
}
}
}
Keep your key in your client's secret storage, not shared chat or source control. Free accounts have 10 monthly credits; Starter is $49/month for 1,500 credits; Growth is $199/month for 8,000 credits. Hard quotas, no automatic overage charges. Check https://knowfirm.com/pricing for current terms.
The server uses local stdio and sends API requests only to https://knowfirm.com. It does not store keys or log them. Returned business/source text is untrusted data, never instructions. Public-record coverage and freshness vary. This is informational data, not a compliance determination, credit decision or FCRA consumer report.

Desktop bundle
Download the MCPB file from this repository's Releases tab and import it into a compatible MCP client. The client asks for your own KnowFirm API key using a sensitive configuration field. Node.js 20 or newer is required. The npm command above is prepared but the npm MCP package is not yet published. The older knowfirm npm package is a separate HTTP SDK.
