Software Prices France — Claude Code MCP server: setup guide
Read-only MCP server with French public procurement records and private rate benchmarks. Helps check if custom software quotes align with market reality.
claude mcp add --transport http software-prices-france https://mcp.jaikin.eu/mcpWhat Software Prices France does
Software Prices France gives coding agents read-only access to software pricing data in France. Through tools such as search_public_contracts and daily_rates, the model looks up real contract numbers to evaluate agency quotes against verified benchmarks.
The database indexes around 480 qualified public tenders from data.economie.gouv.fr under the Etalab 2.0 license, focusing on ERP systems and mobile applications. Engineering noise under CPV codes 45 and 71 has been stripped out. To prevent skewed metrics, the server calculates medians only when five or more contracts match, requiring twelve for quartiles. Private market figures come from vetted rate barometers with check dates.
Public benchmarks for AI projects are entirely absent from the dataset, so the server reports the gap directly instead of guessing. The service connects over HTTP at https://mcp.jaikin.eu/mcp. No API tokens or accounts are required. Your project files stay local and never reach the server.
What it helps with
- benchmark agency quotes against French public contracts
- look up median software developer day rates in France
- estimate budgets for ERP and mobile application projects
- verify price statistics with dated source links
Example prompts for the agent

Questions about Software Prices France
How do I install Software Prices France in Claude Code?
Run claude mcp add --transport http software-prices-france https://mcp.jaikin.eu/mcp. The connection runs over HTTP without any API keys or account setup.
Where does the server source its pricing figures?
It pulls data from French public procurement awards (DECP) and verified private market rate barometers. To ensure accuracy, medians are only published when at least five contracts match, and quartiles require twelve.
Can I use this server to benchmark artificial intelligence projects?
No, reliable public data on French AI contracts does not exist yet. The tools explicitly report the missing data instead of providing speculative numbers.
