MCP server for local business availability: in-stock items, open appointment slots and shop hours

Website ↗How to connect ↓

What it does

Onhand is an MCP server, a connector that lets an AI assistant use it as a tool. It is hosted: an assistant connects to it over the internet, nothing to install.

From the publisher's description, Electra Index matched it to one capability: meeting scheduling. That makes it a candidate for tasks such as book sales meetings or schedule meetings.

Facts come from the Official MCP Registry, as declared by the publisher. Capabilities are matched automatically (low confidence). None of this is a test of the tool.

What "online" means: the server answered an MCP connection at the time of the check. It is not a guarantee of security, quality or continuous uptime. How we test: we open an MCP session and ask for the tool list, as an AI assistant would. We never run a tool and never send a key. Checked every few days. Method
