Freebox MCP Server
Give your AI assistant the ability to find free stuff near you — and know what it's worth.
Freebox tracks free curbside and giveaway listings across 400+ US metros, prices every find with an LLM valuation chain, and ranks them by estimated resale value. This remote MCP server exposes that feed to Claude and any other MCP client.

What's behind it
A Craigslist/OfferUp scraper across 400+ US metros feeding a Supabase index; every listing priced by an LLM chain (Groq → Cerebras → NVIDIA) tuned on 30k+ resale valuations; a distance ladder so any US ZIP returns real nearby inventory. Values are estimates, not guarantees.
Freebox is a paid app ($2.49/wk, $39.99/yr, or $99 lifetime) — connecting and browsing teasers is free; the full ranked feed requires a subscription.
