Use IndieTide from your AI assistant

IndieTide has an MCP server. Connect it to Claude, Cursor or any other MCP client, and your assistant can read the weekly board, search every launch, and draft your own launch for you to review.

Connect

One address, no account and no API key. It uses the Streamable HTTP transport, so any client that supports remote MCP servers can add it.

Claude

In Claude, open Settings, then Connectors, choose Add custom connector and paste the address.

https://indietide.com/mcp

Claude Code

Run this once in your terminal.

claude mcp add --transport http indietide https://indietide.com/mcp

Cursor and other editors

Add this to your MCP settings file (in Cursor, .cursor/mcp.json).

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "indietide": {
      "url": "https://indietide.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

What your assistant can do

Weekly boardget_weekly_board: This week's launches ranked by votes, or the final results of any past week.
Search productssearch_products: Search every launched product by keyword, category, pricing or tech stack.
Product detailsget_product: One product's full page: description, pricing, tech stack, the maker's answers and screenshots.
Submission guideget_submission_guide: The launch rules, field limits, categories, technologies and the weeks that still have spots.
Prepare a launchprepare_submission: Checks a launch draft against the rules and returns a link where the maker signs in, reviews it and launches.

An assistant can't sign in, vote or launch anything. Votes come from signed-in people, and a launch only goes live when its maker schedules it.

Launch with your assistant

1Your assistant drafts it
It reads the launch rules, then writes the name, tagline, description, categories and pricing from what you tell it or from your website.
2You get a link
IndieTide checks the draft against the same rules as the launch form and returns a link that works for 7 days.
3You review and launch
Open the link, sign in, and the form is filled in. Edit anything that's off, add a logo and screenshots, pick your week and schedule the launch.

Once it's connected, a prompt like this is enough:

Launch my product on IndieTide. Read my website at example.com, draft the launch with the IndieTide tools, and give me the link to review it.

The same rules apply as on the form: the product is yours, each website launches once, and the description should say what the product really does. See how IndieTide works.

Without MCP

Assistants that only read the web can use /llms.txt, a plain summary of the site with this week's launches. Every product page has a markdown copy at the same address with .md added, and new launches are in the RSS feed.
