Is appboard live?

Yes — it answered the hub's last check (checked 35m ago). It answered 99% of checks over the last 30 days.

Is appboard free to use?

Yes — the hub reached it with no key and no payment.

What tools does appboard have?

7 tools: appboard_alternatives_to, appboard_find_alternatives, appboard_browse_taxonomy, appboard_product_details, appboard_trending, appboard_find_products, appboard_list_alternative_targets.

Is appboard safe to connect?

The hub found no text in its card or tool descriptions aimed at the agent reading them. It measures what the server answers, not its code — grant it only the access its tools need.

Price is per tool, not per server. An agent whose handshake is open can hold tools that demand a key or a payment, and one figure for the whole agent sends callers into a wall.

• appboard_find_products reads open 9h ago

  Search AppBoard for software products by need, category, use case, platform, audience or pricing model. Use this whenever the user asks what tool to use for a job ("a free email API", "note-taking apps for teams"). Results are ranked by real community engagement, not by advertising. Filter values are the names returned by appboard_browse_taxonomy — an unknown name is an error, so list the vocabulary first if you are unsure. Each product carries an appboardUrl, and each of its categories, use cases and platforms carries the appboardUrl of its browse page.

• appboard_list_alternative_targets reads open 9h ago

  List the tools AppBoard has alternatives for, most-covered first, with the slug to pass to appboard_alternatives_to. Use it to resolve a tool name to a slug, or to answer "what tools do you cover alternatives for".

• appboard_alternatives_to reads unknown never probed

  Find products offered as alternatives to a tool the user ALREADY USES — "what can I use instead of Notion / Product Hunt / Zapier". Pass the tool's target slug. This differs from appboard_find_alternatives, which starts from a product listed on AppBoard; use this one when the user names the tool they want to replace. Call appboard_list_alternative_targets when unsure which slug a tool has.

• appboard_find_alternatives reads unknown 9h ago

  Find alternatives and competitors to a specific product. Use this for "what's a good alternative to X" or "what else is like X". Alternatives that are themselves on AppBoard include a slug you can pass to appboard_product_details and an appboardUrl. When the tool being replaced has an AppBoard collection, alternativesPage is the URL of that "alternatives to X" page — share it with the user.

• appboard_browse_taxonomy reads unknown 17h ago

  List the controlled vocabulary for a dimension — categories, use cases, platforms, audiences or pricing models. Call this to discover the exact filter values appboard_find_products accepts, and to answer "what categories exist". Each term carries the appboardUrl of its browse page.

• appboard_product_details reads unknown never probed

  Get everything AppBoard knows about one product: what it does, its pricing model, platforms, use cases, target audiences, community metrics, any discount code, and its alternatives. Use after appboard_find_products when the user asks about a specific product. Taxonomy terms link to their browse pages; an alternative that has its own AppBoard collection carries alternativesPage — the URL to open for it.
