There is no ranking, no best-for-you and no score: the tools return regulatory status, enforcement history and company health, and you decide. The publisher is explicit that this is a regulatory line rather than a product choice, because the FCA separates information from advice. What it buys you in practice is a check nobody selling to you controls — whether the firm is authorised today, whether the company behind it has an insolvency history, how long it has actually been trading — assembled from three registers in one answer instead of three tabs.
An MCP server over three official UK sources — the SRA Solicitors Register, the FCA Financial Services Register and Companies House. It finds conveyancers and mortgage brokers by postcode, cross-references them, and returns profiles carrying regulatory status, disciplinary history and company health. It reports facts and does not rank or recommend, which is a deliberate line: the FCA separates giving information from giving advice.
- search_conveyancers finds SRA-regulated conveyancing firms by UK postcode, and search_mortgage_brokers finds FCA-authorised brokers the same way
- get_provider_profile is the enriched view: regulatory standing joined to company health from Companies House
- get_disciplinary_history checks SRA and FCA enforcement actions against a firm
- compare_providers puts several firms side by side on the same factual columns — status, trading since, insolvency, officers
- The sources behind those answers: the SRA register covering 25,098 regulated firms with practice areas and offices, updated daily; the FCA register for permissions and disciplinary history, in real time; and Companies House for status, insolvency, charges, officers and incorporation date, updated daily
