Is there a WikiTree tool yet for Genome Mate Pro?

Question 1

I started using Genome Mate Pro a week ago or so and have been able to map out about 30 cousins in a short amount of time, largely through looking at MyHeritage trees and DNA matches.

My question is whether there is a good tool to help find which of these cousins are on WikiTree, and have paper trails with sources?

Question 2

As far as I know this isn't supported. You need to manually look it up but it's anyways always the best to get in touch with your DNA cousins and ask them for family trees somewhere online or at least for the name and locations (birth, marriage and death) of their Grandparents (thus protecting the names of living people in almost all cases).

Our app with incorporate a WikiTree lookup in the future but due to the size of WikiTree this isn't as easy as it sounds.

Unfortunately there's no API (basically a public available function) to query for a name so developers like me or GMP cannot easily interact with WikiTree.
