Siftsmith tools for AI agents (MCP)

Let an AI agent look up a company's hiring, tech stack, buyer intent, email security or product launches. Apify's hosted MCP server runs each Siftsmith tool as an agent tool, in Claude, Cursor, VS Code or any other client that speaks the Model Context Protocol.

You pay Apify per result, with no subscription. Inputs that aren’t found, fail to look up, or repeat an earlier input come back as free rows.

MCP config for all five tools

Add this server to your MCP client's configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "apify": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,toolfoundry/hiring-signals,toolfoundry/tech-enricher,toolfoundry/buyer-intent-signals,toolfoundry/email-security-signals,toolfoundry/launch-signals"
    }
  }
}

Your client signs in to Apify with OAuth the first time. If it doesn't support OAuth, add "headers": {"Authorization": "Bearer <your Apify API token>"} next to url. The token is in Apify Console → Settings → API & Integrations. To load fewer tools, drop them from the tools list. Apify's MCP documentation covers each client.

What each tool gives the agent

Hiring Signals	Input `companies` (name or domain). Open jobs, jobs posted in the last 7, 30 and 90 days, `engineeringShare`, `departments` and a `hiringScore`. $0.05 per company with open jobs (optional per-job rows $0.002 each).
Tech Enricher	Input `domains`. Detected `technologies`, `emailProvider` and `dnsProvider`. $0.02 per profiled domain.
Buyer Intent Signals	Input `companies`. A 0–100 `buyerIntentScore` from hiring activity, boosted when the company lacks a technology category you pick (`targetCategory`). $0.06 per company with open jobs.
Email Security Signals	Input `domains`. DMARC, SPF and DKIM checks with a `grade`, `score` and `bulkSenderCompliant`. $0.02 per graded domain.
Launch Signals	Input `domains`. Pages updated in the last 7, 30 and 90 days from the company’s own sitemap, split by section (changelog, pricing, integrations, product, docs and more), with a 0–100 `launchScore` and plain-English `pitchReasons`. $0.03 per analyzed domain with enough trustworthy recent changes.

Example prompts

“Which of these 20 companies are hiring fastest, and how much of their open roles are engineering? Use hiring-signals.”
“Check DMARC, SPF and DKIM for our customer list and tell me who fails the Gmail and Yahoo bulk-sender authentication rules.”
“Score these accounts for buyer intent and rank them.”

Pass many companies in one call. Each tool takes a list, so one run covers the whole batch.
