## Tools
- ping (Ping Moonlings) - Returns server status, the price list, and (when authenticated) your credit balance. Free — call it to check connectivity and see what this server offers. Endpoint: https://moonlings.ai/api/mcp
- check_visibility (AI Visibility Check) - Ask ChatGPT and Perplexity live (with web search) who they'd recommend in a business's category and city, and report whether THIS business appears. Returns honest appearance counts (never an invented metric), a per-engine split, who gets recommended instead, and which local sites the AI answers cite. AI answers vary substantially between runs — one check is a snapshot, not a stable measurement; re-check over time for the real picture. Call this when a user wants to know if AI assistants recommend a local business. Takes ~10-30 seconds. Price: $0.79 per delivered check. Endpoint: https://moonlings.ai/api/mcp
- review_gap (Review Gap Check) - Compare a local business's Google rating and review count against the top same-category rivals nearby, with the gap math done: who leads, the rating delta, the review-volume ratio, and a verdict (leading / rated_equal_or_better_but_outreviewed / trailing). Live Google Maps lookup at call time. Call this when a user wants to know how a business's reviews stack up against local competitors. Takes a few seconds. Price: $0.39 per delivered comparison. Endpoint: https://moonlings.ai/api/mcp
- check_facts (AI Fact-Check) - Find what AI assistants get WRONG about a local business. Asks ChatGPT and Perplexity live (with web search) about the business's hours, address, phone, and category, then verifies each stated fact against Google Business ground truth. Returns a severity-ranked list of conflicts (with the AI's value vs. the trusted value and source) plus discrepancies to check. Conservative by design: a claim with no trusted source is 'unverifiable' (never an error), and a conflict is only counted when it reproduces across engines — so it won't cry wolf. Call this when a user asks whether AI has the right info about a business, or 'why does ChatGPT say we're closed'. Takes ~15-30 seconds. Price: $1.49 per delivered check. Endpoint: https://moonlings.ai/api/mcp
- run_scan (Competitor Quick Scan) - A live competitor scan: a research agent finds the business's strongest same-category rival nearby and scouts it (offer, pricing signals, review positioning, what they do that this business doesn't), while two ground-truth lookups run in parallel: ChatGPT/Perplexity sampling for AI-assistant visibility, and a direct Google Places review comparison (reviewSnapshot — the authoritative numbers; finding source URLs are verified against what the agent actually retrieved). The AI-visibility portion is a single-run snapshot — AI answers vary substantially between runs. BLOCKING and slow: typically 2-4 minutes — only call it from contexts that tolerate a long tool call. Price: $1.99 per delivered scan; a failed scan is never charged. Endpoint: https://moonlings.ai/api/mcp
- start_deep_report (Start Deep Research Report) - Launch a full overnight-grade research report on a local business: an autonomous research crew maps the competitive landscape, reads the business's and rivals' web presence, and delivers a long-form graded report with structured findings and an action list. ASYNC: this tool returns a slug immediately; the report takes roughly 10-20 minutes. Poll check_report_status, then fetch with get_report_result. Price: $9.99, charged when the report launches; if the report fails, the charge is refunded automatically. Each call starts a NEW report — do not retry a call that already returned a slug. Endpoint: https://moonlings.ai/api/mcp
- check_report_status (Check Report Status) - Poll a deep research report by slug. Free. Returns status (generating / ready / failed); a failed report triggers the automatic refund of its launch charge. Deep reports typically take 10-20 minutes — poll every few minutes, not every few seconds. Endpoint: https://moonlings.ai/api/mcp
- get_report_result (Get Report Result) - Fetch a completed deep research report by slug. Free. Returns the long-form report (markdown), a structured-findings JSON block, the action list, and the report card. If the report is still generating you get its status instead; if it failed, the launch charge is refunded automatically. Endpoint: https://moonlings.ai/api/mcp
