Questions

Things people ask first.

Not here? Email info@stayapi.com or read the full MCP docs.

Does this need a different API key?

No. The same X-API-Key you use for the REST API works for the MCP server. One key, one dashboard, one usage log. In Claude on the web, desktop, or mobile you don't need the key at all: add StayAPI as a connector and sign in.

How does billing work?

One tool call counts as one request against your monthly quota, the same as a REST request. Discovery and handshakes are free. Per-tool usage shows up in your dashboard so you see exactly which tools your agents call.

Which clients work today?

Claude (web, desktop, and mobile, as a connector), Claude Code, and Cursor work out of the box. ChatGPT works as an MCP app in developer mode (Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise, or Edu): add it under chatgpt.com/plugins, sign in to StayAPI, then type @StayAPI in a Work chat. It isn't in ChatGPT's plugin directory yet.

Is this faster or slower than the REST API?

About the same. Tool calls run on the same infrastructure as the REST API. URL-resolution calls (passing a Booking URL instead of a hotel ID) are slower than hotel-ID calls.

What happens when my quota runs out?

The tool returns a structured error with a reset time. Your agent reads it and backs off automatically. Same behaviour as the REST API.

Two ways to get set up.

Both end with your agent answering hotel questions. Pick the one that fits your evening.
