How many results can I get?

Set max_items, up to 250. You are billed for the records actually returned.

How do I get a full record for a match?

Pass its id to There's An AI For That tool for pricing, releases, FAQ and the rating breakdown.

Do I pay for lookups that come back empty?

No. You are charged per result, so a request that finds nothing costs nothing. Testing this against a messy list is free to get wrong.

What does a request cost?

1 point per returned record, which is $1 per 1,000, and only records that come back are charged. Points come out of your monthly plan allowance.

Startup & Funding Data

There's An AI For That Tool Search API and MCP — Find AI Tools by Keyword or Task

Send a keyword or task name such as video editing and get matching AI tools as a list: name, short description, task, price wording, rating, views, saves and a link. Optional sort and tool_type narrow the result, and max_items caps how many come back.

Run it in the app Read the API docs

Coverage: There's An AI For That records with a public page.
Price: 1 point per returned record — $1 per 1,000; Billed per record actually returned, capped by max_items. A request that returns nothing costs nothing.

Comparison

Ways to get this data

Three approaches teams use today, and where each one runs into trouble.

Approach	What it takes	Cost	Trade-off
There's An AI For That directly	Type the query into There's An AI For That and read the results	Free, and slow	Fine for one record, useless across a list, and the layout differs on every platform
Building a scraper	Write it, host it, and repair it when There's An AI For That changes its pages	Engineering time	A maintenance commitment for something that isn't your product
NeuralVerge	One request, the same shape as every other source in the catalog	$1 per 1,000, misses not billed	Returns what There's An AI For That publishes at request time. Other platforms are separate sources with the same request format

Integration

How to run it

The same lookup works from the app, the API, or as a tool an agent can call mid-task.

Results come back in the same envelope as every other source: a session id, a readable summary, the structured result and the points charged. max_items caps how many records are returned and billed.

curl -X POST https://api.neuralverge.ai/functions/v1/run-theresanaiforthat-tools-search \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"keyword":"video editing","max_items":2}'

Coverage & limits

Coverage, freshness and limits

What this source covers, how fresh it is, and where it stops.

Coverage

There's An AI For That records with a public page.

Freshness

Read at request time, so the answer reflects the platform as it stands when you ask.

Handling

This source returns information There's An AI For That shows publicly. Every response carries the session id you can trace.

What it will not do

—total_found is null in the sample, so the platform does not report how many matches exist.
—Sorting and tool type apply to task names, not to free keywords.
—Paid placements are skipped, so results do not include sponsored listings.
