Remote MCP connector
Connect an AI workflow to 13 free, public, read-only tools for HTS research, duty calculations, AD/CVD screening, PGA signals, and related import checks.
Public describes the available tool catalog; it does not mean anonymous access. Authentication, plan eligibility, and connector controls depend on the client you use.
Remote MCP endpoint
https://mcp.tandom.ai/mcpDirect programmatic clients can authenticate with a Tandom bearer API key. A hosted client may instead use a supported OAuth flow. Follow that client's current documentation and your workspace policy; the two setup paths are not interchangeable.
Catalog
13 public tools
Generated from the same public tool allowlist used by Tandom.
Tool behavior
Read-only
The public connector does not create, edit, approve, or buy anything.
Connection
Client-specific
Plan, workspace, authentication, and model support can differ.
Compatible clients
Connector menus and eligibility change. These links are the source of truth for each client; Tandom verifies its endpoint and public tool contract, not a vendor's plan or workspace configuration.
Use a remote MCP server through ChatGPT custom apps or the OpenAI API where that capability is enabled.
ChatGPT availability, developer mode, workspace controls, and app approval differ by plan and administrator policy. API integrations have separate account and model requirements.
Use Claude custom connectors or Anthropic's API MCP connector when remote MCP is available to your account.
Personal and organization plans have different connector limits and setup permissions. Team and Enterprise workspaces may require an owner or administrator to add and enable a connector.
Add Tandom as a remote Streamable HTTP MCP server in a project or user-level configuration.
Supported settings depend on your Cursor version and organization policy. Keep Cursor's normal tool review and approval controls enabled when testing a connection.
Google documents remote MCP through Gemini API function calling. AI Studio can support API-key and prompt prototyping for that workflow.
We do not assume a universal click-to-install MCP flow inside AI Studio. Remote MCP support varies by Gemini API model, SDK, project access, billing, and quota.
Setup principles
Public catalog
This list is rendered from Tandom's public MCP allowlist, so the page and connector contract stay aligned. Exact tool names matter when you restrict a client to an approved subset.

I am comparing two named manufacturers for an industrial component: Candidate A in China and Candidate B in Mexico. Before using Tandom's tools, list the product facts you still need for a defensible HTS and duty analysis. Then compare likely origin and landed-duty implications, screen each named candidate for relevant AD/CVD orders, and flag possible PGA or document-readiness issues before a first order. Use only facts I provide and results returned by the tools. Do not invent a classification, supplier qualification, duty rate, or regulatory conclusion. Separate confirmed results from assumptions and questions for a customs professional.
Even read-only calls can include sensitive product, supplier, and shipment facts. Review what your client will send before approving a call, and do not include secrets the analysis does not need.
Free tools
The public tools help research classifications, duties, trade remedies, and regulatory signals. They do not choose a supplier, contact factories, validate production capability, negotiate a quote, or approve a purchase.
Paid sourcing service
When you need candidate identification, technical qualification, quote collection, supplier coordination, and support through the sourcing project, work with Tandom's sourcing team.
