What is Startupnamegenerator?
Startupnamegenerator is an MCP server that connects any MCP client (Claude, Cursor, or your own agent) to the Startup Name Generator web service. It lets you generate startup names whose .com domain is available right now, checked live, and then screen your chosen name against the US (USPTO) and EU (EUIPO) trademark registers.
How to use Startupnamegenerator?
Get a free API key at startupnamegenerator.com/mcp, then add it to your MCP client. You can run it via stdio using npx -y startupnamegenerator-mcp with the environment variable STARTUPNAMEGENERATOR_API_KEY, or use the Streamable HTTP endpoint directly at https://startupnamegenerator.com/api/mcp with a Bearer token.
