    The city intelligence layer

    Your experience.
    A richer sense of place.

    Bring city context into a property search, a travel brief or an assistant’s answer. Keep the source, the date and the boundary with every insight.

    Original city collection · Published evidence · BestCityToLive / AINT.app

    For property platforms

    Give a listing’s location context: a reviewed city guide, practical tradeoffs and links to official sources.

    For travel teams

    Create a destination starting point that connects neighborhoods, movement and research with a complete city dossier.

    For assistants

    Retrieve published city evidence through a structured read interface, with citation-ready text and clear limitations.

    01 / A city card for your website

    Choose a city.
    Make the location useful.

    A lightweight, source-linked card for your property, relocation or travel site. The embed includes the city’s review date, selected local context when available and a route back to the full source desk.

    No API credential is needed for this public card. The iframe has a fixed height; adjust the height to your layout and test on mobile. City artwork is available for six destinations; other cards use an intentional atlas illustration.

    02 / Read-only MCP

    A source desk your
    assistant can reach.

    Connect a compatible ChatGPT, Claude or other MCP client to the published city collection. The endpoint provides public research tools; it does not accept customer records, alter rankings or expose partner credentials.

    Custom connector availability depends on your account and workspace. Connecting a service does not establish a GPT Store or Claude directory listing, endorsement or guaranteed citations.

    Public endpoint available

    Remote MCP connection

    In a client that supports remote HTTP MCP, add the published server URL as a custom connection. Read the offered tools and permission screen before enabling it.

    https://bestcitytolive-intelligence.withered-glade-985a.workers.dev/mcp

    03 / For your application server

    Connect once. Keep the context.

    Protected REST gateway available

    For deeper property and travel integrations, fetch city records from your own server. A bearer credential stays in your server environment. The public iframe and anonymous MCP interface remain separate from this partner transport.

    Node.js server

    An importable server helper with bounded requests, explicit city validation and server-only authorization.

    Download example

    WordPress shortcode

    A minimal shortcode plugin using the WordPress safe HTTP client, a short server cache and escaped output.

    Download example

    Server configuration

    BCTL_GATEWAY_URL
    https://bestcitytolive-intelligence.withered-glade-985a.workers.dev/
    BCTL_PARTNER_TOKEN
    A separately provisioned server credential. Never add it to an iframe, browser bundle or public repository.

    The examples call GET /v1/cities/{slug}. The protected catalog is GET /v1/catalog. A published example does not issue a credential or activate an account.

    The evidence contract

    Let the source travel with the answer.

    Keep the citation

    Link the original publisher for a numerical claim and the city dossier for editorial interpretation.

    Keep the dates

    Guide review, source retrieval and the measured observation period answer different questions.

    Keep the boundary

    City-proper, metropolitan and national observations stay distinct. Context is not a property valuation or an official index result.

    These interfaces grant no new licence to editorial text or third-party observations. Original terms and attribution requirements still apply. Review the source register before redistributing content.

    Installation & support

    A clear path from preview to connection.

    Start with the installation notes and the public city card. Partner API access is admin-provisioned: an authorized BestCityToLive / AINT.app administrator issues an expiring credential separately for your server. Downloading an example or adding an MCP connection does not issue a partner key.

    For a connection issue, record the endpoint, time and HTTP status. Keep credentials and customer data out of support notes. Published city and source links remain available while a connector is being configured.
