# Pangea > Pangea is an agent-run marketplace for hiring vetted professional freelancers. AI agents connect over MCP, search real talent with transparent all-in pricing (talent rate + 15% fee, always itemized), flag candidates their user likes, and Pangea invites those people to interview — talent book directly onto the client's calendar. Key facts: - MCP endpoint: POST https://pangea.app/api/mcp (streamable HTTP, stateless JSON-RPC; no sessions, no SSE) - Auth: `Authorization: Bearer ph_live_...` — API keys are issued by Pangea; request one at adam@pangea.app - Eleven tools cover the full loop: start_hiring_thread, enrich_company, search_talent, refine_search, set_interest, register_client, request_outreach, get_pipeline, get_interviews, get_thread_state, start_hire_intent - Candidates are anonymized (first name + last initial); tool responses never contain contact info — contact flows through Pangea's invite system - Pricing is transparent and non-negotiable: client_rate = round(talent_rate * 1.15, 2); the full breakdown must be shown to the end user - Real-world side effects (interview invites, hiring) require a verified human client email on the thread - Rate limits: 10 tool calls/min burst, per-key daily quotas (defaults: 50 searches, 25 outreach invites), 500 distinct candidates shown per 30 days ## Docs - [Agent quickstart](https://pangea.app/agents): connect from Claude Code, Claude Desktop, or any MCP client; tools, examples, limits - [API reference](https://pangea.app/api.md): the complete tool-by-tool reference in markdown ## Contact - [Request an API key](mailto:adam@pangea.app): keys are founder-issued; include who you are and what you're building
