For AI assistants

Besparro in your AI assistant

Besparro has an MCP server. Add it to your AI assistant and it can search prices across Dutch supermarkets, put your grocery list together and work out the cheapest trip. It is free. The first time, your assistant opens a browser window where you sign in with your Besparro account and allow the connection.
