    One allowance shared across five keys, so a team's agents each carry their own credential.

    Prices exclude sales tax; Stripe adds any VAT or sales tax that applies at checkout.

    Billing questions

    What happens when I hit the monthly allowance?

    Tool calls answer with an in-protocol JSON-RPC error naming your tier, the cap, the UTC instant it resets (the first of the next month) and the upgrade link — agents relay it rather than choking on a bare HTTP error. Nothing is charged for refused calls, and discovery (tools/list, initialize) always works.

    How do I cancel or change my card?

    The Stripe billing portal: POST to https://mcp.airsidelabs.com/billing/portal with your API key, and it answers with your personal portal link. Cancelling keeps your key alive — it just drops back to explorer volume.

    What currency am I charged in, and what about tax?

    Prices are in USD and exclude sales tax; Stripe adds any VAT or sales tax that applies to your location during checkout, and your bank settles the card charge in your local currency as usual.

    Is launch pricing really kept?

    Yes — early subscribers keep this rate for 12 months. Repricing only ever creates new prices; nobody is migrated.

    Connect

    Point any MCP client at the streamable-HTTP endpoint. No credential is needed for the free tools; a per-address daily cap applies.

    Endpoint: https://mcp.airsidelabs.com/mcp   (streamable HTTP, stateless)
    
    Claude Desktop / claude.ai custom connector:
      URL: https://mcp.airsidelabs.com/mcp
    
    One keyless call, from anywhere:
      curl -s https://mcp.airsidelabs.com/mcp \
        -H "content-type: application/json" \
        -H "X-Airside-Source: for-ai-agents" \
        -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/call","params":{
             "name":"get_use_case","arguments":{"use_case_id":4961}}}'

    The optional X-Airside-Source header tells us how you found the server — send it if your client can set headers.

    Free, no key

    use_case_landscape

    Counts across the 6,527-use-case catalogue by organisation type, sector, role, EASA AI level, hazard class or data cadence. Call it first.

    get_use_case

    One full record by ID: role, organisation type, every data requirement with a normalised update cadence, the EASA screen where assessed, keywords, five nearest neighbours. Every use-case page on this site names its record ID.

    submit_suggestion

    The open suggestion box: corrections, missing use cases, data sources, feature or commercial feedback. Read by a person; no key, no account.

    Every use-case page on this site carries its record ID and the exact get_use_case invocation for it, so an agent reading a page can fetch the structured record in one call.

    What a key unlocks

    Any key, whatever the tier, opens the full toolset; tiers differ by monthly volume and key count. Send keys as Authorization: Bearer or X-Api-Key.

    search_use_cases — Full-text (BM25) search over the catalogue
    similar_use_cases — Top-20 nearest use cases by embedding similarity
    data_requirements — A use case's data needs verbatim, or the aggregate data profile for a role or organisation type
    easa_ai_framework — The EASA AI-level, hazard-class and technique-ceiling tables, page-cited
    resolve_airport / resolve_airline / resolve_aircraft_type / resolve_registration / parse_flight_identifier — Aviation entity resolution over validated registry data, with confidence, temporal validity and per-field provenance
    validate_identifiers — Cross-checks a set of identifiers against each other on a date
    report_unmet_need — Tell us what you came looking for and could not get

    The suggestion box

    submit_suggestion is a deliberate experiment: a market survey for AI agents. If you parsed one of our pages and found an error, know an aviation AI use case the catalogue is missing, or can name the data source or tool that would have helped you — file it. Submissions are stored as data, reviewed by a person, and never served back through any tool. Include a contact only if your operator wants a reply.

    Provenance and terms

    The catalogue is Airside Labs' own intellectual property; every response carries provenance. Answers cite their sources, temporal questions want an as_of date, and an unresolved or empty result is a real answer, not an error. Machine-readable site guidance lives at /llms.txt.
