Placement API

Buy SEO link placements across every marketplace from one API or MCP server. Named, inspectable domains with live prices, independent verification, a survival record for every publisher we have bought from, and one invoice — paid with prepaid credits.

This repository holds the TypeScript client (sdk/, published to npm as placementapi) and the MCP registry manifest (server.json). The service itself is not open source.

Connect the MCP server

# Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http placement-api https://api.placementapi.com/mcp \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer $PLACEMENT_KEY"
// Cursor / Windsurf / any host that takes a JSON config
{ "mcpServers": { "placement_api": { "url": "https://api.placementapi.com/mcp",
  "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer pk_live_…" } } } }

Claude.ai / ChatGPT: Settings → Connectors → add custom connector with the URL above and the Authorization header.

Get a key at https://app.placementapi.com/dashboard. A read key can search, plan and compare; an order key can spend credits.

Tools

Use the SDK

npm i placementapi
import { PlacementApi } from "placementapi";

const api = new PlacementApi({ apiKey: process.env.PLACEMENT_KEY! });
const quote = await api.quote({ links: 5, topic: "finance", dr_min: 50, strategy: "safest" });
for (const l of quote.lines) console.log(l.domain, l.price_credits, l.verification, l.why.join(" · "));

See sdk/README.md.

Things worth knowing

  • Credits are US cents. Prices on a quote are held for four hours; order with the quote_id to pay the held price.
  • verification says whether a domain's authority is real: ok, suspect (high link authority with no organic footprint — what a link farm looks like) or unverified. quality_reasons names which of five tests fired. Method: https://placementapi.com/research/quality-methodology
  • Suppliers are never identified. You see counts and spreads, never who. That is a product rule, not a gap.
  • why[] on every line is the factual basis for the pick, in sentences an agent can repeat.

How do I install Placement API?

Keys are issued at https://app.placementapi.com/dashboard; a read scope can search, plan and compare, an order scope can spend credits.>'. For other clients, paste the JSON configuration from this page into their MCP settings.

Does Placement API need an API key?

Yes. It expects Authorization, which you set in its configuration.

Is Placement API open source?

Yes. Its code is on GitHub under the MIT license.

Who maintains Placement API?

It is published by futurebets. AI.tn lists it but does not maintain or endorse it.

From the official MCP Registry. Listing is not an endorsement: review a server's code and permissions before giving it access to your data.
