EarlyLore

About

EarlyLore connects an assistant to a catalog of 440K+ software products. It can search products, fetch commercial dossiers, compare competitors, inspect serial makers, read market pulse and pricing benchmarks, extract hero Design DNA (colors, fonts, layout) and generate launch post drafts. It can also read your evaluation reports and save notes to your workspace.

The server is hosted at https://earlylore.com/api/mcp over streamable HTTP. It needs a personal key (starting with el_live_) from your EarlyLore account page, sent as a Bearer Authorization header. Some tools depend on your plan, and daily MCP call limits apply.

• Fetch full commercial dossiers for a product
• Compare 2 to 8 products side by side
• Browse creator portfolios and verified MRR
• Query pricing benchmarks across 249 niches

Embed

Show EarlyLore in a README or on your site. Each embed links to this page, uses the server’s own URL, and sets no cookies. How embeds work

The card, the iframe and the JSON are in English. Add ?lang=it, fr, de or es to their address for another language.

Markdown

[![EarlyLore on mcp.tc](https://mcp.tc/i/earlylore/badge.svg)](https://mcp.tc/i/earlylore)

HTML

<a href="https://mcp.tc/i/earlylore"><img src="https://mcp.tc/i/earlylore/badge.svg" alt="EarlyLore on mcp.tc" height="20"></a>

It follows the reader’s light or dark mode. Add ?theme=light or ?theme=dark to fix it, or ?style=compact to show the mark without the word.

Website card

HTML

<script src="https://mcp.tc/w/earlylore.js" async></script>

The card appears where the tag is. Add data-theme="dark" or data-size="compact" to the tag to change it. The file holds everything it needs, so it makes no other requests and sets no cookies.

iframe

HTML

<iframe src="https://mcp.tc/embed/earlylore" title="EarlyLore on mcp.tc" width="420" height="200" loading="lazy" allow="clipboard-write" style="border:0;border-radius:8px;max-width:100%"></iframe>

Use it on pages that don’t allow scripts. Add ?theme=light or ?theme=dark to the address to fix the colors.

JSON

The listing as data for your own pages and tools: name, tagline, the server’s own URL, tools and the “Add to” links. Any site can read it (CORS is open).

What each field means

AI prompt

Paste this into an AI coding assistant, such as Claude Code or Cursor, and it adds the EarlyLore card to your site.

Markdown

Add the mcp.tc card for EarlyLore, an MCP server, to my website. It is one static script: no build step, no package to install, no cookies.

Put this tag where the card should appear. The card renders right before it:

```html
<script src="https://mcp.tc/w/earlylore.js" async></script>
```

To show the card somewhere else, put this placeholder there and load the same script once, for example before `</body>`. Keep the link inside: visitors without JavaScript see it.

```html
<div data-mcptc="earlylore"><a href="https://mcp.tc/i/earlylore">EarlyLore on mcp.tc</a></div>
```

Options:
- `data-theme="light"` or `"dark"` on the tag or the placeholder fixes the colors. Without it, the card follows the visitor’s light or dark mode.
- `data-size="compact"` gives a smaller card without the tagline.
- The CSS variable `--mcptc-max-width` on the placeholder or a parent sets the width (default `520px`).
- `?lang=` on the script URL sets the card’s language: `en`, `it`, `fr`, `de` or `es`.

If the site has a Content Security Policy, allow `script-src https://mcp.tc` and `img-src data:` (the icon is inline).

For a README or other Markdown docs, use the badge instead:

```markdown
[![EarlyLore on mcp.tc](https://mcp.tc/i/earlylore/badge.svg)](https://mcp.tc/i/earlylore)
```
