Pickanagency MCP Server
Pick an Agency is a free directory of 47,000+ marketing agencies with real client reviews and a free AI matching tool. This Model Context Protocol (MCP) server lets any AI agent - Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Gumloop, and more - search the directory and get matched with fitted agencies, directly in conversation. Its 3 documented tools cluster into read & search, match. It is available as a remote MCP endpoint.
Teams that want a hosted filesystem endpoint instead of running a local process. The project is written in JavaScript.
