Announcing: SocialAPIs is Now Available in MCP Registry!
First-class Model Context Protocol support: Claude Desktop, ChatGPT, Cursor, and any MCP-aware client can call every SocialAPIs endpoint natively.
We're excited to announce that SocialAPIs is now officially available in the Model Context Protocol (MCP) Registry!
๐ Big News!
Today marks a major milestone for SocialAPIs. We've officially published our MCP server to the Model Context Protocol Registry, making it incredibly easy to use social media data in AI applications.
What is MCP?
The Model Context Protocol is a new standard created by Anthropic that allows AI assistants to seamlessly connect with external tools and data sources. Think of it as a universal adapter for AI agents.
With MCP, you can give AI assistants like Claude the ability to:
- Access real-time data
- Execute actions in external services
- Work with files and databases
- And much more!
Why This Matters
Before MCP, integrating APIs with AI tools required:
- Complex custom code
- Manual authentication handling
- Platform-specific implementations
- Constant maintenance
With MCP + SocialAPIs, you can:
- Install in seconds with npm
- Access 12+ social media tools instantly
- No code required for basic usage
- Works with Claude Desktop, Cursor, VSCode, and more
Getting Started
1. Install
1npm install -g @socialapis/mcp2. Configure
Add to your Claude Desktop config:
1{
2 "mcpServers": {
3 "socialapis": {
4 "command": "npx",
5 "args": ["-y", "@socialapis/mcp", "YOUR_API_KEY"]
6 }
7 }
8}3. Use!
Just ask Claude natural language questions:
"What's Nike's follower count on Facebook?"
"Compare engagement rates between Coca-Cola and Pepsi"
"Analyze the comments on this Facebook post"
Available Tools
Our MCP server includes 12 Facebook tools:
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
| facebook_get_page_details | Get page info, followers, likes |
| facebook_get_page_posts | Fetch recent posts |
| facebook_get_page_reels | Get reels/short videos |

Roadmap
Shipped since launch (updated 2026-06-29):
- โ Instagram support โ live: profiles, posts, reels, highlights, location search (16 tools)
- โ Python SDK โ pypi.org/project/socialapis-sdk โ 51 endpoints, MIT-licensed
- โ JavaScript / TypeScript SDK โ npmjs.com/package/socialapis-sdk โ Node 18+, Bun, Deno, browsers
- โ Go SDK โ github.com/SocialAPIsHub/socialapis-go โ idiomatic, zero deps
- โ MCP Registry listing โ registry.modelcontextprotocol.io
Still on the roadmap:
- TikTok support โ video, profile, hashtag endpoints
- X (Twitter) support โ tweets, profiles, search
- LinkedIn support โ company pages, posts
- YouTube support โ videos, channels, comments
- Advanced analytics tools โ server-side aggregation endpoints (engagement-over-time, brand comparisons), so multi-call patterns like "compare engagement between Nike, Adidas, Puma over the last month" become a single tool call instead of paginated fan-out
- Real-time webhooks โ push notifications on new posts / engagement thresholds
Platform priorities shift based on customer demand. The fastest way to push something up the queue is to email support@socialapis.io or DM @socialapis on Telegram with the use case.

- Free: 200 calls / month โ no credit card
- Pro: $4.99 / month โ starter tier
- Ultra / Mega: higher monthly volumes
- Enterprise: custom plans for >120K calls / month with negotiated per-1K rates
