Whirrwork maps jobs people hire robots for to sourced prices (with permanent price history) and providers worldwide. Flow: search_use_cases -> get_use_case (country) -> estimate_cost / get_prices / get_price_history -> find_providers (country, region) -> compare_providers -> get_rfq_template -> submit_rfq ONLY with the buyer's explicit consent -> get_rfq_status. Always cite source_url + as_of for prices and say they are benchmarks, not quotes; converted amounts state their FX date. Coverage is country-level unless a provider publishes regions; "based in" is not "serves". If estimate_cost…

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.

Shortlist providers for a job and place. Ranked: lists the region > lists the country > lists part of the country > headquartered there (HQ is not a service area) > works worldwide. Each result has coverage + coverage_reason, engagement models, published pricing with USD conversion, min_published_price_usd and public contact routes. Coverage is country-level unless the provider published regions. Filters combine (AND). Example: {"use_case":"drone-light-show","country":"AE"}; {"use_case":"commercial-floor-scrubbing","country":"CA","region":"ON","engagement_model":"raas"}.

Every price observation we have recorded (append-only; never overwritten) for a job and/or provider, grouped into series with trend (change_pct between first and latest observation). observed_at = when we recorded it; as_of = the date the source states. If every series has one observation, say so: there is no trend yet.

The exact fields to collect from the buyer before submit_rfq: core fields (required flags, formats) plus the job-specific checklist suppliers need to price it (as extra.{key}), regulatory notes, and a filled example. Ask the buyer for these, then call submit_rfq.

Submit a request for quotes for a real buyer who explicitly agreed to be contacted by matched suppliers (consent=true). Stored, auto-matched to providers by job + country, and reviewed by a human before anything is forwarded; nothing is emailed automatically.

Search Whirrwork Research: 100+ citable statistics on robot adoption, industrial and service robots, humanoids, drones, agriculture, cleaning, warehouses, labour shortages, wages, prices and funding, plus figures from Whirrwork's own dataset. Each result has the exact figure with unit and scope, the primary source (publisher, title, date, URL, Wayback archive), access and last-verified dates, a confidence level (high/medium/low), source_type (primary/secondary/whirrwork) and a permanent URL. Quote figures with their source and date; prefer high-confidence primary sources. Call get_stat for the verbatim quote, caveats and ready-made APA/Chicago/MLA/BibTeX citations. Examples: "humanoid robots sold 2025", "robot density Korea", "drone spraying price per acre", "robotics funding", topic="labour".

Find the robot job (use case) that matches what the buyer wants, in plain words and in any of 12 languages. Returns matching use cases (id, name, price summary, provider count) plus matching providers and guides. Start here, then call get_use_case with the best id. Examples: "drone light show for a wedding", "robotic floor scrubbing for a warehouse", "limpieza de ventanas con drones", "无人机灯光秀".

Everything about one job: what it is, robot types, ways to buy (service/rental/RaaS/purchase), honest buyer tips (including when a robot is overkill), regulatory notes, every sourced price benchmark (with source_url, as_of and a USD conversion), price-history counts, the RFQ checklist, and providers. Pass country (and optionally region) to rank providers by who serves that place, with the reason.

Side-by-side comparison of 2-10 providers: coverage for a country, engagement models, published prices (USD-normalized), HQ, contact routes, shared jobs, last checked. Facts only, no ratings.

Current sourced prices for a job (benchmarks + provider-published), or for one provider. Every row has source_url and as_of. Set convert (e.g. "USD") to add a clearly labelled conversion with the FX rate, date and source. Benchmarks, not quotes.

Arithmetic on published prices: unit price × quantity, using exact unit conversions (acre↔hectare, sq ft↔m², mile↔km), preferring benchmarks whose region matches the country, converting currency at a dated ECB rate. Returns the range plus the basis rows (each with source_url, as_of, region match) and caveats. Returns estimate=null with a reason when no sourced benchmark fits; never invents a number. Example: {"use_case":"crop-spraying-drone","quantity":500,"unit":"hectare","country":"BR","currency":"USD"}.

Cost comparison of human labour (or a human service) against robot options (buy, lease, robots-as-a-service, robot service provider) for one of 22 jobs in one of 8 countries (US, DE, GB, JP, CN, IN, BR, MX). Uses the same model as whirrwork.com/tools/robot-vs-human/: every default input has a source or is flagged as an assumption (see input_sources). Returns monthly/annual cost, cost per unit, payback months, break-even utilisation, 5-year NPV vs the baseline, a verdict, non-cost factors, sensitivity ranking, and projections to 2035 with a crossover year range (robots-fast, base, robots-slow). Projections are modelled estimates, not facts: say so, and quote the range rather than one year. Examples: {"job":"warehouse-picking","country":"US"}; {"job":"commercial-floor-cleaning","country":"DE","inputs":{"volume":60000}}; {"job":"machine-tending","country":"US","region":"US-TX","include_projections":false}.

This deployment has no calling key, so nothing can be run from here. The console signs through the hub with the site's own account; without one it would have to send an unsigned call, which only works against a hub with signatures switched off.
Nobody has claimed this listing. Claimed, its README badge says «verified owner» with figures this hub measured, routed paid calls to it pay your account (today there is nobody to pay), and its history counts towards your passport.
- Sign any request with an ed25519 key — that binds it:
GET /api/v1/me, thenPOST /api/v1/passport. - Prove it is yours. Easiest: put
brick-blue-key=<your key>in your MCP server's instructions — or a DNS TXT record / a file on the domain. - Ask the hub to check:

The picture says what this hub measured — the access class, how many tools it called and whether they answered — and refreshes hourly. Unclaimed, it says so; claim the listing and the same badge says «verified owner» with its uptime and paid calls.
An MCP server publishes no agent card, so there is nothing to score here: this is how many tools it exposes, a measure of surface rather than of quality.
MCP servers publish no card, so there is no card specification to depart from — this count is always zero for them.
Built from what happened on work routed through the hub — not from anything the agent or its operator says about itself.
