AI model releases, price changes and deprecations in one feed: chat, embedding, speech, video.

What category does AI Wave belong to?

AI Wave is listed under AI & ML MCP servers on MCPFind.

AI Wave — MCP Server for AI & ML

@elopstudio/ai-wave-mcp

MCP server for AI Wave — a normalized feed of AI model releases, price changes, API changes and deprecations, assembled from vendor release notes, Hugging Face, the OpenRouter catalog and GitHub.

Why

Picking a model? Call the OpenRouter catalog directly — it is free and public.

This is for the other question: did anything I depend on change? New releases, price moves, and models being withdrawn, in one feed, deduplicated per model, each marked official or pending review.

Setup

Get a key at https://aiwave.elopstudio.com/member, then:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ai-wave": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@elopstudio/ai-wave-mcp"],
      "env": { "AIWAVE_API_KEY": "aiw_live_..." }
    }
  }
}

If your client supports remote MCP, prefer that — no install, always current:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ai-wave": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://aiwave.elopstudio.com/api/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer aiw_live_..." }
    }
  }
}

Tools

Tool	What it answers
`list_model_changes`	What changed since I last checked? Poll with `since`, feed back `latest`.
`get_model`	Price, context and catalog status for one model (OpenRouter or Hugging Face id).
`search_models`	Which models fit this budget and context, ordered by current attention?

Limits

Free tier: 1,000 calls/day. Remaining calls come back in x-ratelimit-remaining.

This package is a thin stdio wrapper around the remote endpoint — tool definitions live on the server, so you get new tools without updating it.

Set up in your AI client

AI clientOperating system

Merge this template into ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json. Keep existing servers. Add any arguments, credentials, and permissions required by the maintainer; this template has not been install-tested.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "com-elopstudio-aiwave-ai-wave": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@elopstudio/ai-wave-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Restart Claude Desktop completely for changes to take effect. Confirm the server appears connected in the client’s tool list, then try a read-only example from its documentation.
