description: 'Read-only JSON API for MSP Software: categories, software listings and vendors. No authentication, no writes, no PII, no individual price reports.
The same data reaches machines four other ways: an MCP server at https://mspsoftware.net/mcp (Streamable HTTP, read-only), a short index at https://mspsoftware.net/llms.txt, every listing in one file at https://mspsoftware.net/llms-full.txt, and one listing as Markdown at https://mspsoftware.net/software/{slug}.md.
Human documentation, with the feeds, is at https://mspsoftware.net/api.
Facts, feature checklists, buyer guides, FAQ answers, aggregate ratings and reported-pricing aggregates on MSP Software may be quoted with attribution to MSP Software and a link to the page cited. Reviews are the reviewers'' own words and are not covered.'
