Do I need an account to use the MCP server?

Yes, a free Robotitem account. Authorisation goes through OAuth 2.1 with dynamic client registration, so there is no API key to request — your client registers itself and you approve the connection once.

Yes. The MCP server is free to use and rate-limited per account. Robotitem is funded by affiliate commission on outbound links, which never influences ranking.

Where does the data come from?

From the suppliers' own APIs, pulled nightly. Prices are converted to euros at the reference rate, and the same part sold by several suppliers is grouped under one entry by manufacturer part number, then barcode, then text similarity.

Robotitem for AI assistants (MCP)

Robotitem exposes its catalogue — 97,986 robotics products across a dozen suppliers — through a Model Context Protocol server. Any MCP-capable assistant can search it, open a product and compare offers without leaving the conversation.

OAuth 2.1 with dynamic client registration — no API key to request. A free Robotitem account is required to authorise the connection; tokens last seven days.

Available tools

Tool	What it does
search_products	Keyword and filter search: brand, category, price, stock, lead time, technical specifications.
search_natural	Free-text search. A phrase like “quiet servo for a small arm under 40 €” is parsed into filters, then run through full-text and semantic search.
get_product	One product: specifications, every supplier offer, price history and estimated delivered cost.
compare_products	Side-by-side comparison of several products, feature by feature.
list_favorites	The saved products of the connected account.

What it will not tell you

We do not test products and publish no reviews of our own — descriptions and specifications are the suppliers' own words.
Delivered cost (shipping, VAT, customs duty) is an estimate for a single item shipped to mainland France. The seller's checkout is authoritative.
Prices are refreshed nightly; each product reports the date it was last checked.
Ranking never takes affiliate commission into account, and no affiliate identifier exists in the database — it is added at click time.
