How does ToolYour compare to converter sites and Zapier MCP?

Searchers asking for utilities and an API and MCP are comparing product shapes. ToolYour owns the catalog. Zapier MCP connects agents to other apps. Converter-only sites usually stop at the browser.

    The ToolYour REST API exposes API-backed tools over HTTPS with `ty_` API keys. Free accounts include 500 credits per month shared with remote MCP (tools cost 1–10 credits per call).

  • Does the API share quota with MCP?

    Yes. REST calls and MCP executions share one monthly credit quota on one API key (tools cost 1–10 credits). Discovery meta-tools are free.

  • Does ToolYour include browser tools as well as REST and MCP?

    Yes. People smoke-check the catalog in the browser. Apps use REST. Agents use the remote MCP server. API-backed tools share one key. Converter-only sites and Zapier MCP do not own this three-surface catalog.
