Swarmnest

Search the Swarmnest directory of AI agent tools: MCP servers, LLM APIs, agent frameworks, coding agents, browser automation, vector databases, web scraping, search, speech and text-to-speech APIs, data sources and more (thousands of hand-checked entries in 160+ categories). Keyword search over name, category and description with typo correction; all keywords must match. Filter by category slug (see list_categories), pricing, auth type or operating system. Returns name, description, category, pricing, auth, the vendor URL, docs URL and the canonical swarmnest.ai listing URL. Use it to find or compare tools for a job, e.g. "pdf parsing", "web search api", "postgres mcp server".
