Model Context Protocol

AfA Sparen for AI assistants (MCP)

Calculate German property depreciation (AfA) with the remaining useful life (Restnutzungsdauer) and the purchase price allocation (Kaufpreisaufteilung), check appraisal prices and book a free initial call — directly in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and every other client that supports the Model Context Protocol. Open source, free, no account needed.

How it works

From question to answer — or a booked call

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that lets AI assistants call external tools. Instead of guessing, your assistant asks our calculation, our current prices and our free slots.

1
Connect once
Add the server URL to Claude, ChatGPT or your IDE. No account, no API key.
2
Ask in plain language
Describe the property. The assistant picks the right tool and fills in the details.
- AfA rate
- Remaining useful life
- Annual tax effect
3
Get figures, prices and appointments
Results come from the same calculation and price list as our website, with the source cited. A call is only booked once you confirm the code we e-mail to you.

Tools

Five tools, ready for your assistant

Calculations, prices and free slots are read-only. Booking a call creates an appointment only after you confirm it with a code we e-mail to you. No tool triggers payments or accesses your conversations.

Setup

Connect in under a minute

Use the hosted server URL below. No API key or account is required.

Server URL

https://mcp.rundum.immo/mcp

Claude (web & desktop)

Open Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector, enter a name and paste the server URL.

ChatGPT

Enable developer mode under Settings → Apps & Connectors → Advanced, then create a new connector with the server URL and no authentication.

Run locally (stdio)

Prefer to run the server on your own machine? Use the npm package (Node.js 22.12 or newer):

mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "rundum-immo": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@rundum-immo/real-estate-appraisal-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

Run this command in your terminal:

Terminal

claude mcp add --transport http rundum-immo https://mcp.rundum.immo/mcp

Cursor & other MCP clients

Add the server to your mcp.json:

mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "rundum-immo": {
      "url": "https://mcp.rundum.immo/mcp"
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Add the server to .vscode/mcp.json:

Data handling

The server is stateless and has no access to your conversations, files or memory.
Property details you send are used for the calculation only and are not stored.
If you book a call, we store your name, e-mail address and (optional) phone number to arrange it. The confirmation code is stored only as a hash and expires after 15 minutes.
To prevent abuse, we keep a salted hash of the IP address, the origin and the browser family for 30 days.

Coming next

More AfA Sparen tools for signed-in customers are in preparation.

Results are indicative estimates based on German tax rules (including the ImmoWertV and the BMF worksheet for purchase price allocation). They do not replace tax, legal or appraisal advice. Prices are list prices incl. VAT; the price shown when ordering is binding. Initial calls are free and non-binding.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

About the AfA Sparen MCP server

Yes. The hosted server and the open-source package are free to use, within the rate limits listed above.

No. The hosted server works without registration or an API key. Just add the server URL to your client. To book a call, you only confirm a code we send to your e-mail address.

Every client that supports remote MCP servers over Streamable HTTP, for example Claude, ChatGPT (developer mode), Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. Clients that only support local servers can use the npm package.

The tools use the same calculation as our web calculators. The depreciation estimate depends heavily on the modernization status; without it, the result is an upper bound. For a figure the tax office accepts, you need a remaining useful life appraisal.

Yes. The adapter is MIT-licensed. You can run it locally via npx or build it from the GitHub repository. Calculations, prices and bookings stay on the AfA Sparen API.

Open an issue on GitHub or write to info@rundum.immo. Please report security issues privately to security@rundum.immo.

Yes, a free tenant-configured initial call (30 minutes by default). Your assistant shows you the free slots; once you pick one, we send a 6-digit code to your e-mail address, and only the code you give your assistant confirms the booking. Your assistant only learns the confirmed time — you then receive a calendar invitation by e-mail.

Yes. All prices are list prices including 19% VAT; the tool also returns the net amount. Discount codes are applied when you order, and the price shown there is binding.
