# Simpliciter — AI Connector Simpliciter publishes 3 MCP tools to Claude. Marketplace availability, tool surface, verification tier, and what Node8 measured against the live endpoint. Source: https://node8.ai/ai-connectors/legal/simpliciter/ --- [AI Connectors](https://node8.ai/ai-connectors/) · [Legal](https://node8.ai/ai-connectors/legal/) # Simpliciter Source-grounded legal research across plan-enabled databases Listed in Claude · 3 published tools · Community-listed [Claude connector docs](https://help.simpliciter.ai/) [simpliciter.ai](https://simpliciter.ai/) Overview ## What Simpliciter does Simpliciter runs legal research grounded in sources instead of in a model's recall. The three tools map cleanly onto how research proceeds. The first discovers which legal sources are available, which depends on the plan a given account holds. The second runs semantic research across those enabled databases. The third retrieves a specific statute, case, administrative guidance or other material by exact reference, for when the citation is already known and the text is what is wanted. A Simpliciter account determines the scope. Community tier, documentation published. ### Who it is for Lawyers running semantic legal research against subscribed source databases. ### Tool surface The endpoint requires credentials, so three is the listing's own count: discovering available sources, running semantic research, and retrieving a specific document by exact reference. Availability ## Where Simpliciter is listed Simpliciter is listed in the Claude connectors directory only. Simpliciter.ai has no app under the same domain in the ChatGPT directory; 392 of the 3,150 products here are on both marketplaces, and this is not one of them. The MCP server behind a Claude connector is usually the same server a ChatGPT app would need, so the absence is a distribution decision rather than a technical one. Claude listing ## In the Claude connectors directory Simpliciter publishes 3 tools to Claude, a deliberately narrow surface; only 11.3% of the 1,253 Claude-listed connectors expose fewer. The median Claude-listed connector filed under Legal publishes 11, so this one sits 8 tools below its bucket's median, 27th of 33. It falls in the 1-3 tools band, which holds 16.4% of the Claude directory. Simpliciter publishes a remote MCP endpoint. Claude connects to it over HTTP; there is nothing to install locally. Every connector in the Claude directory is remote, all 1,253 of them, so transport is not a differentiator there. Publisher Simpliciter.ai Verification Community-listed (61.5% of the Claude directory) Filed under Legal Endpoint `https://simpliciter.ai/mcp` Documentation [Publisher setup docs](https://help.simpliciter.ai/) Published tools 3 · 1-3 tools band Depth rank in Legal 27 of 33 Snapshot August 2026 Simpliciter is community-listed in the Claude directory, the tier 770 of 1,253 connectors sit in (61.5%). It is the default for a self-published server, and says nothing either way about quality. In the publisher's words ## How Simpliciter.ai describes it > Connect Simpliciter to Claude for source-grounded legal research directly in your conversations. Use your Simpliciter account to discover available legal sources, run semantic research across the databases enabled for your plan, and retrieve specific statutes, case law, administrative guidance, or other legal materials by exact reference.
