iDevice MCP server
The iDevice Buyer's Guide in MCP format. Independent, source-backed answers for phones and wearables: what to buy, what works with what, whether to buy now or wait, what owning it involves, and what is coming.
Every fact shows its source and how sure we are. Free, with no key, no sign-up and no account, so Claude, ChatGPT or any MCP app can look it up live instead of guessing from what it was trained on.

How it stays honest
The connection is a window onto the same pages readers see, with the same checks.
Every fact answers to a page
Each result carries a url back to the iDevice page it came from. The evidence stays on idevice.com, one click away.
Reports keep their status
A pre-release report is marked right, wrong, partly right or not settled. An assistant cannot pass one off as confirmed.
Researched and checked
Each item was researched and checked before it was served. Where a fact is not confirmed, the answer says so instead of guessing.
Sponsors do not shape answers
A sponsor's Guide, if public, is served like any other and marked sponsored. A brand cannot buy a verdict. Unpublished Guides and advertiser data are never served.
What is covered
Every phone and wearable line iDevice tracks: Apple Watch, AirPods, Apple Vision Pro, Apple Glasses, iPhone, Meta Ray-Ban, Meta Quest, Samsung Galaxy Watch, Galaxy Ring, Galaxy XR, Galaxy Glasses, Google Pixel Watch, Snap Spectacles, Xreal, Oura Ring, Ultrahuman, WHOOP and more.
Not included
Unpublished sponsor Guides, advertiser data and bulk export. Compatibility answers link to the maker's or platform's own page. Return, warranty and offer answers link to the maker's or retailer's own page. Full breakdown.
Talk to the iDevice agent
Shopper agents can also ask iDevice directly, in plain language, over the A2A (Agent2Agent) protocol. The agent is an AI run by iDevice, says so in its first reply, and does not sell the products it covers.
What to ask
Which one fits a budget, a phone and a use. Whether a product works with a phone or an app. Whether to hold off for a newer model. How to compare two or three products. How far to trust a pre-release report.
How it answers
From the same sourced pages as the MCP tools, with what is not known left as not known. Product answers can carry a structured block for up to five products. No purchase links.
Endpoint: https://idevice.com/api/a2a. Agent card: /.well-known/agent-card.json.
