Free MCP Integration

Know the moment something changes on your domains.

EdgeDNS monitors your DNS records, email security, SSL certificates, and security posture — privately. Get alerted to problems before they cause outages, breaches, or lost emails. Use the API directly, or let Claude, ChatGPT, or Gemini do it for you — free.

No credit card required. Upgrade when you're ready.

Monitoring

A DNS record changes without your knowledge. An SSL certificate expires on a Friday night. A DMARC misconfiguration sends thousands of emails to spam. These are not edge cases — they are the reason EdgeDNS exists.

Your AI already knows how to use EdgeDNS

Free on every plan.

EdgeDNS speaks a protocol called MCP that AI assistants already understand. Connect once, and your AI can look up DNS records, check email security, audit SSL certificates, detect tech stacks, and run full domain reports — all by asking in plain English. No code. No learning curve. Just ask.

  • Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor, and every major AI tool
  • Live data from actual servers — not guesses from training data
  • 90 domain checks your AI can run on its own

Check the security posture of edgedns.dev — speed, accessibility, and overall score.

The problems you don't see are the ones that hurt most

Private alerts, email authentication, record verification, and security scoring. Use the API directly or let your AI call the right tools through MCP.

What you can ask your AI

Once connected, just ask. Your AI picks the right tools automatically.

Security teams

“Audit the security posture of acme.com — headers, SSL, DNSSEC, everything”

Email marketers

“Check if our DMARC policy will cause the next campaign to land in spam”

Developers

“Compare the tech stacks of competitor1.com and competitor2.com”

Compliance

“Generate SOC 2 evidence for all five of our production domains”

One API key. Two ways to use it.

Call any endpoint directly with curl, Python, or any HTTP client. Or connect via MCP and let your AI call the right tools for you. Same API key, same structured JSON, same privacy guarantees.

  • Works with any language or HTTP client
  • Structured, consistent JSON for every endpoint
  • Built-in caching and global edge delivery
  • Private by default — your results are never shared
  • MCP-compatible — your AI uses the same endpoints
curl -X POST "https://api.edgedns.dev/v1/subscriptions" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer your_api_key" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "domain": "yourcompany.com",
    "dns_enabled": true,
    "cert_enabled": true,
    "ping_enabled": true,
    "dns_change_alert": true,
    "cert_expiry_alert_days": 30
  }'

{
  "data": {
    "id": "sub_abc123",
    "domain": "yourcompany.com",
    "status": "active",
    "services": ["dns", "cert", "ping"],
    "privacy": "data retained privately"
  },
  "meta": {
    "request_id": "req_abc123",
    "timestamp": "2026-03-23T12:00:00.000Z",
    "response_time_ms": 38
  }
}

Three steps. Then you never miss a domain problem again.

1

Create your free account

Sign up in 30 seconds. No credit card. Your API key is ready immediately — including MCP access for your AI.

2

Tell us what to watch

Add domains and choose what to monitor: DNS changes, certificate expirations, email authentication, security scores. Pick one or all.

3

Get alerted before it becomes a crisis

EdgeDNS watches continuously. When something changes or degrades, you know first — not your customers.

We finally have private DNS monitoring that doesn't feed passive databases

Frequently asked questions

What is EdgeDNS?
EdgeDNS is a service that privately monitors your domains and alerts you when something goes wrong — DNS changes, expiring certificates, broken email authentication, or declining security scores. It also provides on-demand lookups for domain ownership, technology stacks, IP geolocation, and more. Everything runs on Cloudflare's global network for fast responses worldwide. You can use it through a standard API or let AI assistants (Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini) use it directly.
Is my domain data shared with anyone?
No. EdgeDNS is private by design. Your queries and results are never shared, sold, or fed into passive databases. Only your organization can see what you look up.
What can I do on the free tier?
Quite a lot. The free tier gives you 200 requests per month across DNS lookups, IP geolocation, email security checks, security analysis, and more — plus full MCP access so your AI can use all of these tools directly. No credit card required. No time limit.
How does private domain monitoring work?
You add domains through the dashboard or API. EdgeDNS checks them on a schedule and alerts you when something changes — DNS record drift, expiring certificates, score drops, or ownership updates. Everything stays private to your organization.
Do I need to install anything?
No. EdgeDNS is a REST service — call it from any HTTP client. For AI integration, connect to our MCP server at mcp.edgedns.dev/mcp. No SDK, no agent to install, and no wrapper code needed.
What is MCP and how does it work with EdgeDNS?
MCP is an open standard that lets AI assistants like Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini use real tools — not just generate text about them. When you connect EdgeDNS through MCP, your AI can actually look up DNS records, check email authentication, run security audits, and more. It calls the same endpoints a developer would, but the AI decides which ones to use based on what you ask. Think of it as giving your AI a toolbox instead of a textbook. MCP is included on all plans, including the free tier.
Which AI tools and clients does EdgeDNS support?
EdgeDNS works with any MCP-compatible client: Claude Code, Claude Desktop, ChatGPT, Gemini CLI, OpenAI Responses API, Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, and more. Setup takes one command — see our MCP integration guide for details.
What happens if I don't monitor my domains?
Most domain problems are invisible until they cause damage. A misconfigured DNS record can silently redirect traffic. An expired SSL certificate locks customers out of your site. A broken DMARC policy sends emails straight to spam. These happen every day to teams that rely on manual checks or no checks at all.

Domain problems don't wait. Neither should you.

Track DNS changes, expiring certificates, email auth failures, and security score drops. Call the API directly or connect your AI through MCP — both included free.

Includes MCP for Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini. 200 requests/month. No credit card required.
