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.

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 Code, Cursor, and Claude Desktop work out of the box. ChatGPT custom connectors need OAuth, which we don't support yet.

Is this faster or slower than the REST API?

Same infrastructure, same response times. Most calls answer in 1 to 5 seconds. URL-resolution calls (passing a Booking URL instead of a hotel ID) can take longer.

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.
