## What it does

The server provides a search tool that queries rental offers across airports, transit stations, and cities. It pulls data from external providers in real time, sorting vehicles into standard SIPP tiers and displaying the two cheapest options for each class.

Configuration uses streamable HTTP without API keys or account creation. Responses detail daily rates, fuel policies, security deposits, and cancellation terms. You cannot reserve vehicles or alter bookings through this interface — the server only returns pricing data alongside external links.

Traffic is limited to one request per second, with short bursts allowed up to five.
