## Trust breakdown

How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically against the live server, and we only credit what we can confirm. Scores are 0–100 per category. Scoring method: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring (what has changed: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring/changelog)

Scored 2026-11-04.

- **Endpoint Security**: 74/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - No authorisation is required to call this server. Every tool declares its destructiveHint and none is destructive, so open access doesn't expose one.
  - HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path.
  - HSTS check failed: the Strict-Transport-Security header is absent.
  - DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC.
- **Transport & Reachability**: 100/100
  - Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 67/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1131 tokens (~282/item across 4 items; 4 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 20/100
  - Stability observed for 6 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 100/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 100% of tool parameters carry a description.
- **Tool Safety**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - We read all 4 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 5 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.

First indexed and scored.

## MCP tools (4)

### `list_industries` (~76 tokens)

List industries

Read-only. Lists every industry and sub-vertical ExitValue.ai tracks, with their ids and display names, and flags which sub-verticals have published multiples (has_published_multiples). Takes no input. Use it first when you are unsure of an id; the other tools accept these ids or plain-English names.

### `get_valuation_multiples` (~351 tokens)

Get M&A valuation multiples

Read-only. Answers 'what multiple does a business in industry X sell for?' for ONE industry. Returns median EV/EBITDA and EV/Revenue multiples with the middle 50% (25th-75th percentile) and deal count n, broken down by enterprise-value bracket (disclosed deals 2018-2026, n>=10 per cell) plus an all-deal-sizes figure (n>=5). Figures below those thresholds are withheld, never estimated. Passing an industry group id (e.g. 'home-services') returns one all-sizes median per sub-vertical. Use compare_industries to put several industries side by side and get_multiples_trend for year-by-year history. Population medians only: it does not value a specific business.

Input parameters:

- `industry` (string, required): Sub-vertical id from list_industries (e.g. 'hvac', 'dental-practice'), or a plain-English name ('HVAC', 'dentist', 'plumber', 'MSP'); plain names are mapped to the closest tracked category and the an…
- `size_bracket` (string): Optional enterprise-value (deal size) bracket: under_5m_ev = under $5M, 5m_25m_ev = $5M-$25M, 25m_100m_ev = $25M-$100M, 100m_500m_ev = $100M-$500M, over_500m_ev = $500M and up. Omit to get every publ…

### `compare_industries` (~325 tokens)

Compare industries' M&A multiples

Read-only. Puts 2-6 industries side by side for one metric: median multiple, middle 50% (25th-75th percentile) and deal count n per industry, using the same data, name matching and thresholds as get_valuation_multiples. Without size_bracket it compares all-deal-size medians (n>=5); with size_bracket it compares that enterprise-value bracket (n>=10). Rows below the threshold are marked INSUFFICIENT DATA rather than estimated; unmatched names and industry-group ids are flagged per row. Use it for 'which sells for more, X or Y?' questions; use get_valuation_multiples for the full breakdown of one industry.

Input parameters:

- `industries` (array, required): 2 to 6 sub-vertical ids or plain-English industry names to compare, e.g. ['dental-practice', 'veterinary-practice', 'physical therapy'].
- `metric` (string): Multiple to compare: ev_ebitda (enterprise value / EBITDA, default) or ev_revenue (enterprise value / revenue).
- `size_bracket` (string): Optional enterprise-value (deal size) bracket: under_5m_ev = under $5M, 5m_25m_ev = $5M-$25M, 25m_100m_ev = $25M-$100M, 100m_500m_ev = $100M-$500M, over_500m_ev = $500M and up. Omit to compare all de…

### `get_multiples_trend` (~231 tokens)

Get M&A multiples trend by year

Read-only. Year-by-year history for ONE sub-vertical: for each deal year 2018-2026, the median EV/EBITDA and/or EV/Revenue multiple with middle 50% (25th-75th percentile), deal count n and median deal value. Only years with at least 10 disclosed deals for a metric are shown; missing years are listed as gaps and never interpolated, so many sub-verticals have few or no years. Use it for 'are multiples rising or falling for X?' questions; use get_valuation_multiples for pooled current figures by deal size.

Input parameters:

- `industry` (string, required): Sub-vertical id from list_industries (e.g. 'hvac', 'dental-practice'), or a plain-English name ('HVAC', 'dentist', 'plumber', 'MSP'); plain names are mapped to the closest tracked category and the an…
- `metric` (string): Optional: ev_ebitda or ev_revenue. Omit to show both where published.
