The Autopilot Index, callable by agents.

A read-only public API and an MCP server over the whole index — companies run by AI, their tech stacks, and every edition. All data is public; there is no authentication and no rate-limit key to request. Be reasonable and cache responses.

REST API

Base URL https://autopilotindex.com/api/v1. JSON only. CORS-enabled. Full spec: /openapi.json (OpenAPI 3.1).

GET	/api/v1	API discovery — links to every resource.
GET	/api/v1/companies	List companies run by AI. Filters: q, cohort, section, verified, sort, limit, offset.
GET	/api/v1/companies/{slug}	One company by slug.
GET	/api/v1/stack	The autopilot tech stack. Filters: category, q, hasReferral.
GET	/api/v1/editions	Autopilot Pulse newsletter editions.

Example — the top AI-run companies by ARR:

curl "https://autopilotindex.com/api/v1/companies?sort=arr&limit=5"

MCP server

Connect an agent (Claude, Cursor, etc.) directly to the index over the Model Context Protocol (Streamable HTTP). Endpoint: https://autopilotindex.com/mcp. Manifest at /.well-known/mcp.json.

Add to an MCP client config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "autopilot-index": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://autopilotindex.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Tools: search_companies, get_company, list_stack_tools, list_editions.

From the terminal

The API is plain JSON over HTTPS, so no client is needed — pipe it to jq:

curl -s "https://autopilotindex.com/api/v1/companies?sort=arr&limit=5" | jq '.items[].name'
curl -s "https://autopilotindex.com/api/v1/companies/polsia" | jq '.techStack'
curl -s "https://autopilotindex.com/api/v1/stack?category=agents" | jq '.items[].name'

A native npx autopilot-index CLI is on the roadmap.
