# Agency Growth

> AI agents and AI automation for agencies and small businesses: done-for-you, done-with-you, or DIY.

For small businesses: Agency Growth is a done-for-you AI automation agency for small businesses. Start with a free AI audit of your business, then build it yourself with a $149 plan or have us build it, priced from your audit and delivered against acceptance tests you sign. You own every account.

For agencies: License AI agents under your own brand, set your own price, and sell them to the customers who already trust you. No build team, no roadmap, no product to invent.

## MCP server (for AI agents and assistants)
Agency Growth runs a public MCP server at https://agencygrowth.com/api/mcp (streamable HTTP, no account, no API key). It covers free 30-day playbooks for each growth bottleneck, searchable guides on pricing, getting clients and starting an AI agency, retainer benchmarks with an underpricing check, a 30-day agency growth plan, the AgencyGrowth Daily automation recipes, every Agency Growth plan and price, and the free AI audit of a business; with an account API key, the growing library of Agency Growth agents that run on the tools you already use.
