Authorization (required)

Bearer followed by your Gangway AIS key (gw_live_...), made in your account at https://gangwayais.com/account/. A free account's key answers nine of the tools, 24 hours behind; the others need a paid plan.

Requests go through mcptry because browsers can't call most MCP servers directly. Header values are sent to the server for that request only and are never stored or logged.
