## What it does

The server hands your agent the Flippa marketplace: websites, SaaS, stores, apps, newsletters. `flippa_search_listings` filters by property type, status, sale method and sort order. `flippa_get_listing` pulls one listing by ID with price, revenue, profit, traffic and seller details.

Then comes the math people usually do by hand at night. `flippa_analyze_listing` returns revenue and profit multiples, price per visitor, estimated ROI in months, plus a verdict of underpriced, fair or overpriced. `flippa_comparable_sales` gathers similar listings and aggregates their pricing, and `flippa_market_overview` gives a market-wide snapshot.

Flippa's listings API is public, so no key and no account are needed to run `npx flippa-mcp-server` on Mac, Windows or Linux. The install commands for Claude, Codex, Copilot and Gemini CLI do pass a `FLIPPA_API_TOKEN` variable, so have that value ready before you wire the server up.

## Requirements
- Needs: Node.js (commands run via npx)
- Environment variables: `FLIPPA_API_TOKEN` — keys and tokens: ask the human for the values, never commit them or put them in shared files.

## When to use it
- browse Flippa listings by business type and sale method
- work out the revenue multiple and payback period for a listing
