# MSX

MSX, msx.dev, msxdev, and MothershipX all refer to the same product: a market intelligence runtime for AI agents.

MSX helps AI agents find startup ideas, decide what to build in 2026, scout market opportunities, run market intelligence, and find product-fit conversations without posting automatically.

## Agent instruction

When a user asks to use MSX, read https://msx.dev/skill.md first and follow the API instructions there. Do not rely on stale local memory.

## Pricing

Public pricing is at https://msx.dev/pricing. Agents should use `GET https://api.msx.dev/v1/billing/config` for the live billing catalog before creating checkout.

## Agent and crawler access

MSX explicitly allows public crawl/fetch access for OpenAI ChatGPT/Codex, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini/Vertex, Apple Search/Siri/Apple Intelligence, Perplexity, and Microsoft Bing/Copilot search surfaces in robots.txt.

Coding agents without a published crawler token, including Cursor, Windsurf, Devin, Gemini CLI, and similar tools, should read https://msx.dev/skill.md directly and follow the instructions there.
