What is Website Tech Stack Detector MCP?
Website Tech Stack Detector identifies the technologies used by a website, including CMS, frameworks, analytics, CDN, hosting, and email providers.
Summary generated from the project's README
About Website Tech Stack Detector MCP server
Identifying the underlying technologies of a website is what this server enables for developers and researchers. By providing a list of over 7,000 technologies, it reveals the specific CMS, frameworks, analytics, CDN, hosting, and email providers used by any given domain. This tool acts as a functional alternative to services like BuiltWith or Wappalyzer.
Users connect to this remote server via an Apify token provided in the MCP client configuration. The service operates on a pay-per-use model, costing $0.002 per website processed, which avoids the need for a monthly subscription. It is designed to work within MCP clients like Claude or Cursor by sending URLs to the Apify API and receiving JSON data in return. You can further refine results by using the checkDns option to verify email providers or the includeEvidence option for more detailed reporting.
What you can do with it
- 1Analyze competitor infrastructureIdentify the specific frameworks and hosting providers used by a competitor's website.
- 2Verify email service providersUse DNS checks to confirm which email provider a specific domain is utilizing.
- 3Perform bulk technology auditsProcess a list of multiple domains to extract their technical specifications in JSON format.

View on GitHubApify tools: PDF to Markdown, OCR, Website to Markdown crawler, SEO audit, Tech Stack
Working examples for my pay-per-use tools on the Apify Store. Each one is an API: send URLs, get JSON back. You only pay for what you process, and there's no subscription.
| Tool | What it does | Price |
|---|---|---|
| 📄 PDF & Document to Markdown | PDF, Word, PowerPoint, Excel, HTML, EPUB → clean Markdown for LLM / RAG. Tables, two-column papers, OCR for scans, chunking | $0.002 per document + $0.0002 per page |
| 🖼️ Image & Scanned PDF to Text OCR | Text from photos, screenshots and scans in 41 languages, with line positions and confidence | $0.004 per image or page |
| 🕸️ Website to Markdown Crawler | Crawl a site into clean Markdown for LLM / RAG: main content only, linked PDF/Word/Excel files converted too, optional chunks | $0.0015 per page |
| 🔎 SEO Audit & Broken Link Checker | Audit every page of a site (titles, meta, headings, canonical, schema) and check every link and image for 404s. 0-100 score per page | $0.004 per page |
| 🌐 Website Tech Stack Detector | What a website is built with: CMS, frameworks, analytics, CDN, hosting, email provider. 7,000+ technologies (BuiltWith / Wappalyzer alternative) | $0.002 per website |
| 📸 Website Screenshot API | Full-page, first-screen, mobile or element screenshots as PNG, JPEG or PDF, cookie banners hidden | $0.005 per full page, $0.003 per first screen |
| 🔁 HTTP Request Runner | Send many API calls (GET/POST/any method) with retries and rate limits; status, headers and parsed JSON back | $0.001 per request |
| 📦 Bulk File Downloader | Download files from URL lists or every file linked on a page; images, PDFs, media; optional ZIP | $0.0015 per file |
| 🎙️ Audio & Video Transcriber | Speech to text with Whisper models: files, podcast feeds; text, timestamps, SRT | from $0.003 per audio minute |

Quick start (curl)
Get an API token from Apify Console → Integrations, then:
curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/prometheus-maker~website-tech-stack-detector/run-sync-get-dataset-items" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $APIFY_TOKEN" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"urls": ["python.org"]}'
The same endpoint works for the other tools: replace the tool name and the input.
Use them from Claude, Cursor or any MCP client
Every tool is also an MCP server, hosted by Apify (streamable HTTP). Add one to your client with your Apify token:
{
"mcpServers": {
"pdf-to-markdown": {
"url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=prometheus-maker/pdf-document-to-markdown",
"headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN" }
}
}
}
Swap the part after tools= for any tool in the table (prometheus-maker/website-to-markdown-crawler, ...), or list
several separated by commas. The same entries are in the official MCP Registry
under io.github.prometheus-maker/* (files in mcp/). You pay per use, as with the API.
Python
pip install apify-client
export APIFY_TOKEN=...
python python/pdf_to_markdown.py # PDF → Markdown + RAG chunks
python python/image_to_text_ocr.py # image → text
python python/tech_stack.py # domains → technologies
python python/website_to_markdown.py # website → Markdown pages + chunks
python python/seo_audit.py # website → SEO scores, issues, broken links
The scripts are in python/. They use apify-client 3.x.
