How it works
$149 one-time · tool access

Give the agent real tools.

36 pre-vetted MCP servers (Maigret, Shodan, Wayback, EdgarTools, Etherscan, Volatility, +30 more) wired into Claude Code / Desktop / Cursor / Windsurf so your agent actually runs the tools — not just suggests them.

What's in the toolkit
$100 on its own · multi-agent

Run agents in parallel.

Orchestrator.md — one file that makes an advanced LLM automatically spin up multiple agents at once (people, businesses, case-facts review, report writing) and merge them into one case file. Free with the all-bundle package, or $100 on its own.
