Which one, for what
letme F
Good for An agent that knows the job but not the tool and wants one recommendation picked by a published rule, with the direct call details and fallbacks by not=.
Ahead on
- Payments & pricing, 50 against 30
Also in its favour
- No key needed to call it
Watch for
Calling through letme, the key and x402 top-ups are specified and not open (calling.open is false in every answer), so an agent still needs each tool's own key or x402 route
Good for A B2B software team that already uses or plans to use Unified's API and wants the same customer connections exposed to an LLM, with data read live from the source app.
Ahead on
- Reliability, 73 against 10
- Schema & documentation, 81 against 68
- Agent ergonomics, 71 against 54
- Security & auth, 50 against 23

Verdicts
letme
No key, account or card to ask for a pick, over GET, POST or MCP, and every address we called answered without credentials. Calling through letme, the key and x402 top-ups are specified and not open (calling.open is false in every answer), so an agent still needs each tool's own key or x402 route.
Unified.to MCP Server
Every previewed tool carries a typed input schema and read-only, destructive and idempotent annotations, and the list can be narrowed by permission or tool name. The default credential is a workspace API key that reaches every connection, and the SSE transport was removed on 23 September 2026 in the changelog entry that announced it.
Before you call either
letme
- Call the pick direct with its endpoint and connect snippet. letme.dev doesn't call tools yet, and calling.open says when that changes
- Add not=<slug> to skip a listing after a failed call, and n=0 to drop the alternatives and shrink the answer
- Check understood.confidence on a job in words, and ask again with a capability id (letme.dev/web.search) when it's low
- Don't ask for ungraded listings by slug. letme.dev/letme and letme.dev/localghost answer 404
- Send keys in a header, not in the URL, even where an answer's endpoint shows ?tavilyApiKey=<key>
Unified.to MCP Server
- Use the host for the workspace's region. US is
mcp-api.unified.to, EU ismcp-api-eu.unified.toand AU isapi-au.unified.to. A credential on another region's host resolves to not found - Send the key as
Authorization: Bearer <key>and putconnection=<id>in the URL. Withoutconnectionthe server lists workspace management tools, not the customer's data tools - Pass
toolsorpermissionsin the URL before listing. An unfiltered connection can list dozens of tools with large output schemas - Expect HTTP 429 on tool calls since 23 September 2026. Unified does not queue or retry, so back off and retry yourself
- Page with
limit(100 at most on most endpoints) andoffset, and stop when a page returns fewer records thanlimit

Disclosure
letme is Anchor Terminal's own product, run by the same company and founder. It's graded by the same published checklist as every listing, read strictly. Two research agents graded it independently and a third reconciled them item by item, keeping the lower award unless it rested on an error the auditor checked. letme never picks it. Since 5 October 2026 the review panel reviews it like any listing, told that it's our own product and to be neither kinder nor harsher.
