profitlee-mcp
An MCP server for Profitlee — compute country-accurate Amazon FBA/FBM and TikTok Shop profit margins, and manage saved scenarios, from any MCP client (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, …).
`calculate_profit` is free and needs no token. The scenario tools require a Profitlee Pro API token.
> MCP registry name: `io.github.AronLEEdev/profitlee-mcp`
Quick start
Add to your MCP client config:
{
"mcpServers": {
"profitlee": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "profitlee-mcp"],
"env": {
"PROFITLEE_API_TOKEN": "eck_live_xxx"
}
}
}
}`PROFITLEE_API_TOKEN` is optional — omit the whole `env` block to use `calculate_profit` only. Create a token on your Profitlee account page to unlock the scenario tools.
Requires Node.js 20+.
Tools
| Tool | Auth | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `calculate_profit` | none | Full per-unit cost stack, gross/net margin, and monthly P&L. |
| `list_scenarios` | Pro token | List your saved scenarios. |
| `get_scenario` | Pro token | Read one scenario (inputs + outputs) by id. |
| `save_scenario` | Pro token | Save a named scenario from calculator inputs. |
| `update_scenario` | Pro token | Rename and/or replace a scenario's inputs. |
| `delete_scenario` | Pro token | Delete a scenario by id. |
| `copy_scenario` | Pro token | Duplicate a scenario into a new one ("Copy of …"). |
`calculate_profit` inputs
Pick a `platform` + `mode`, give the product's physical and cost details, and Profitlee folds every fee into a single net margin. Rates are 0–1 decimals (e.g. `0.15` = 15%). US uses inches + pounds; DE/JP use cm + kg.
| Field | Notes | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| `platform` | `amazon` (default) or `tiktok_shop`. | ||
| `region` | `us`, `de`, or `jp`. | ||
| `mode` | amazon: `fba` \ | `fbm`. tiktok_shop: `fbt` \ | `self_fulfilled`. |
| `L`, `W`, `H`, `weight` | Dimensions + unit weight. | ||
| `fob`, `headShip`, `duty` | Unit cost, inbound freight/unit, import duty/unit. | ||
| `price` | Selling price (gross; VAT-inclusive for DE/JP). | ||
| `ppcAcos`, `returnRate` | Ad ACoS and return rate (0–1). | ||
| `monthlyVolume` | Units/month (scales the P&L). | ||
| `referralPct` | Referral fee (0–1). Preferred over `referralCategory`. | ||
| `isApparel` | Affects some fees. | ||
| mode-specific | FBA: `inboundOption`, `storageMonths`, `storageSeason`. FBM / TikTok self-fulfilled: `outboundShipPerUnit`, `pickPackPerUnit`, `monthly3plStorage`. TikTok FBT: `storageMonthsPastFree`. |
The Profitlee API is the source of truth for validation — incomplete or out-of-range inputs come back as a clear error listing the offending fields. Full field reference: .
Environment variables
| Var | Required | Default | Purpose |
|---|---|---|---|
| `PROFITLEE_API_TOKEN` | No | — | Pro token (`eck_live_…`); needed only for the scenario tools. |
| `PROFITLEE_BASE_URL` | No | `https://profitlee.com` | Override the API origin (testing). |
How it works
The server is a thin wrapper over Profitlee's public HTTP API:
- `calculate_profit` → `POST /api/v1/calculate` (public, no token).
- scenario tools → `/api/v1/scenarios*` (require the Pro token; the server fails fast with a clear message if it's missing).
No fee logic is reimplemented here, so results always match the live Profitlee calculator and current fee tables.
