Tools

Search Pick an Agency's directory of 47,000+ marketing agencies. Filter by free-text query, service (e.g. SEO, paid ads, social media), country, city, industry, and minimum rating. Returns the top matches with location, rating, reviews and profile link. WHEN TO USE: for browsing or filtering ('show me SEO agencies in Berlin', 'agencies named X') when the user wants a LIST to explore. Use match_agencies instead when the user describes their project/brief and wants a RECOMMENDATION; use get_agency for full detail on one specific agency.

Pick an Agency's matching engine. Given a buyer brief (services needed, location, budget, industry), returns a short ranked shortlist of agencies that best fit - the same logic behind the free 'Get Matched' tool. WHEN TO USE: when the user describes their needs/project and wants a RECOMMENDATION ('I need a social media agency in Paris, ~$5k/month'). Requires at least one service. Use search_agencies instead for open browsing/filtering without a brief; use get_agency to drill into one result afterwards.

Fetch a single agency's full profile from Pick an Agency by its slug (the last path segment of its profile URL), including description, location, rating, services, website and a few recent client reviews. WHEN TO USE: after search_agencies or match_agencies returned a result the user wants to know more about, or when the user names a specific agency whose slug you already know. Don't guess slugs - find them via search_agencies first.

FAQ from Pick An Agency

Why don’t tools appear after adding the connector?

MCP servers connect at session start—open a new conversation (Claude.ai) or restart the session (Claude Code), then check the connectors/tools menu. In Claude Code, use /mcp to list connected servers.

What if I get a “Connection failed” or timeout?

Verify the endpoint URL is exactly https://www.pickanagency.com/api/mcp/mcp (the /mcp suffix matters). The server is public; no API key, OAuth, or headers are needed. Check if pickanagency.com is up—if so, the MCP endpoint is up.

Why are my search results empty?

Broaden your filters: try a country instead of a small city, or drop min_rating. The match_agencies tool requires at least one service in the services parameter.

Why does `get_agency` return “no agency found”?

Slugs must be exact. Use search_agencies first to find the correct slug—it is the last path segment of the agency’s profile URL on pickanagency.com.

Is there a local option or do I have to use the hosted endpoint?

You can run a local stdio proxy with npx -y github:Natden444/pickanagency-mcp and configure any MCP client to use that as a command server. The hosted endpoint remains available without any local installation.
