SocialCrawl MCP

Overview

SocialCrawl MCP gives an agent a single interface to 575 endpoints across 65 platforms: profiles, posts, comments, and trends from TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, X, LinkedIn, and Reddit; product and review data from Amazon, Walmart, Target, and eBay; app store listings, travel and local business data, job listings, market/finance data, US congressional trading disclosures, news, and full web scraping and browser automation. Four of the ten tools work without an API key.

How it works

1. socialcrawl_discover and socialcrawl_list_endpoints/_list_platforms let an agent explore the full catalogue and its parameter contracts before making any paid call, served from local bundled data at 0 credits.
2. socialcrawl_pricing quotes the exact credit cost of a call in advance: endpoints are billed as a flat rate, a ladder tier, or a metered band that refunds down to the work actually done.
3. socialcrawl_request validates a call locally first (required params, enum values, integer ranges, parameter couplings) so a malformed request fails for free instead of burning credits, then executes it and returns a consistent response envelope across every platform.
4. socialcrawl_monitors turns any endpoint or composite into a scheduled, stateful job that reruns on a cadence and delivers results to a signed webhook. socialcrawl_web covers scraping, crawling, and interactive browser sessions for anything outside the platform registry.

Installation

You need Node.js (for the local npx option) and a free SocialCrawl API key.

1. Sign up at socialcrawl.dev for 100 free credits (no card required).
2. Add the server to your MCP client, either the hosted HTTP endpoint with your key as a bearer token, or the local npx -y socialcrawl-mcp command with SOCIALCRAWL_API_KEY set (see the sidebar for both).
3. Restart your client.
4. Ask the agent to fetch a public profile (e.g. a TikTok or YouTube account) to confirm the key and connection work.
