PlugCat
Check if a US bank, credit union or brokerage connects to Monarch, YNAB and other finance apps
What it does
PlugCat 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.
No capability identified yet from its description.
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.

4 tools offered to AI assistants
check_institution· Find a bank, credit union or brokerage by name and say which finance apps likely connect to it. Pass `app` to focus on one app. If several institutions share the name, the largest is used and the others are listed; pass `state` or call get_search_institutions· Search 8,500+ US banks, credit unions and brokerages by name (and optionally city). Returns matches with their Plaid status and page URLs, largest institutions first.get_institution· Full app-by-app results for one institution: status and reason per app, the name to search for in the app, FAQs and identifiers. Takes a URL or path from search_institutions.list_apps· The finance apps PlugCat tracks: budgeting apps and accounting tools, the bank-data providers each uses, prices and whether they link investment accounts.
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
Is this your server? Monitoring Pro: a check every 30 minutes and an email within the hour when it stops answering. Launch offer: $39.99 once, for life.
