# Launch Fast MCP

Launch Fast MCP connects AI assistants to Amazon FBA research and seller
analytics through the Model Context Protocol.

Use it to research product opportunities, inspect keyword demand, find supplier
options, check trademark and patent risk, review rank tracking, analyze Amazon
seller reporting, inspect Brand Analytics, and diagnose Amazon Ads performance.

## What It Does

- Product research for Amazon FBA niches and product ideas
- Amazon keyword research for ASINs, opportunities, and competitor gaps
- Supplier research for sourcing and Alibaba-style supplier comparison
- IP checks for trademark and patent launch risk
- Rank tracking lookup and ASIN tracking management
- Amazon seller sales, inventory, and finance reporting
- Amazon Brand Analytics query, search term, and catalog performance
- Amazon Ads campaign, product, targeting, search term, entity graph, and diagnostics analysis

## Hosted Endpoint

Launch Fast runs as a hosted remote MCP server:

```text
https://launchfastlegacyx.com/api/mcp/server
```

Authentication requires a Launch Fast account with MCP access.

Manual MCP clients can use a Launch Fast API key:

```bash
LAUNCHFAST_API_KEY=lf_your_api_key_here
```

Clients with native remote MCP support should connect directly to the hosted
endpoint. Clients that only support local stdio servers can use this package as
a local bridge.
