Programscape
Startup credits, programs and perks from checked sources, with saved plans and reported balances.
What can you do with Programscape?
- Say you qualify for a program. The provider decides.
- Add amounts into a total. Each figure is that program's own, often an "up to" maximum with conditions.
- Pick a winning provider.
Install
Add this to your client's MCP configuration (Claude Desktop: claude_desktop_config.json; Cursor: .cursor/mcp.json; VS Code and others use the same "mcpServers" shape).
claude mcp add --transport http programscape 'https://programscape.com/api/mcp'{
"mcpServers": {
"programscape": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://programscape.com/api/mcp"
}
}

From the project's README on GitHub, refreshed weekly. Links open on GitHub.
Programscape MCP server
Ask your AI assistant which startup credits, programs and perks fit your company, answered from checked records with official sources.
Server URL: https://programscape.com/api/mcp (Streamable HTTP)
Programscape is an independent map of startup credits, programs and perks: cloud and AI credits, accelerator programs and product discounts from AWS, Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure, OpenAI, Anthropic, NVIDIA, Stripe and more. Every record carries its official source and the date it was last checked. Providers can't pay for placement.
This repository holds no server code. Programscape runs the server; this page explains how to connect to it.
Connect
Claude
Find Programscape in Claude's connector directory and add it, or add it yourself:
Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector, with the URL https://programscape.com/api/mcp.
More, with questions to try: programscape.com/claude.
Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http programscape https://programscape.com/api/mcpVS Code
In .vscode/mcp.json:
{
"servers": {
"programscape": { "type": "http", "url": "https://programscape.com/api/mcp" }
}
}Cursor
In ~/.cursor/mcp.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"programscape": { "url": "https://programscape.com/api/mcp" }
}
}The server follows the standard protocol, so other MCP clients can connect too. Claude is the client we test.

Sign-in
Searching, comparing and building a review need no account. The first time a plan tool is used, your assistant asks you to sign in to Programscape once, with Google or a one-time email code. There's no password. Sign-in is OAuth 2.1 with dynamic client registration and PKCE. You can disconnect an assistant from Your plan on programscape.com.
