Dev AI Ecosystem

Give your AI agent 6 dev/AI research tools: trending models and repos, OSS analysis, and the launch communities. Built for dev tooling research, AI ecosystem analysis, and technical due diligence. Runs in Apify Standby mode (warm, responds in seconds). Free to try right now (in the 14-day price-notice window), then $0.10 per tool call.

Who uses this

• VCs & scouts tracking what is trending across Hugging Face, GitHub, and the launch communities.
• Dev-tool marketers monitoring their ecosystem and competitors in real time.
• Researchers & founders mapping the AI landscape without manual tab-hopping.
• AI agents doing technical due diligence or ecosystem analysis on demand.

Connect in 30 seconds

The server speaks Streamable HTTP at /mcp. Add this to your MCP client config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dev-ai-ecosystem": {
      "url": "https://fetchcraft--dev-ai-ecosystem-mcp.apify.actor/mcp?token=YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN"
    }
  }
}

Works in Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cline, Windsurf, VS Code, and any Streamable-HTTP MCP client.

Get your token: sign in at apify.com, then Settings, then Integrations, then copy your Personal API token. Paste it in place of YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN. The first call wakes the standby server (about 5 seconds); after that, calls are instant.

Test it works (replace the token):

curl -s -X POST "https://fetchcraft--dev-ai-ecosystem-mcp.apify.actor/mcp?token=YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Accept: application/json, text/event-stream" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/list","params":{}}'

What you get

  "downloads": 11146200,
  "likes": 6021,
  "trending_score": 766,
  "pipeline_tag": "text-generation"
}

Why pay-per-call beats a subscription

• No subscription, no seats, no minimums. You pay $0.10 per call, only for what you actually use. Comparable tools in this space usually lock you into a monthly plan whether you run it or not.
• No LLM key and no scraping infrastructure to manage. Connect your Apify token and the maintained Actors do the work, returning clean structured JSON.
• Built for AI agents. Drop-in MCP server over Streamable HTTP for Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cline, Windsurf, and VS Code.
• $5/month in free Apify platform credits on every account, that is 50 free calls every month, indefinitely.

Pricing

• Free right now. Every tool call is free during the 14-day price-notice window.
• After that: $0.10 per tool call, flat. No subscription, no seat licenses, no minimum.
• Every Apify account includes $5/month in free platform credits (= 50 free tool calls every month).
