Summary
Bridges Claude and other MCP clients to Influship's creator discovery API with typed tools for influencer marketing workflows. You get creator search by audience and niche, lookalike matching from seed lists, profile resolution across Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube, plus post and transcript analysis for campaign research. Runs as either a hosted Streamable HTTP server or an npm stdio wrapper that proxies to the same production endpoint. Auth and rate limits live server-side. Reach for this when you're building prospecting lists, analyzing competitor talent rosters, or pulling creator data into briefs without leaving your AI workflow.

Influship MCP
AI-native creator discovery for influencer marketing workflows. Influship gives ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, Codex, VS Code, and other MCP-compatible agents typed tools for creator search, lookalikes, profile lookup, post lookup, and Instagram post transcript analysis.
What Agents Can Do
- Search for creators by audience, niche, location, platform, and campaign-fit criteria.
- Find creator lookalikes from known winners or competitor talent lists.
- Resolve creator profiles and social handles across Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube-oriented workflows.
- Pull creator records, posts, and Instagram transcript data into briefs, prospecting lists, market maps, and outreach research.
Remote Server
Use the hosted Streamable HTTP server when your MCP client supports remote MCP:
claude mcp add influship --transport http https://mcp.influship.com/mcp --header "X-API-Key: YOUR_KEY"
NPX / Stdio
Use the npm package for clients that only support stdio:
INFLUSHIP_API_KEY=YOUR_KEY npx -y @influship/mcp
The package is a small stdio bridge to the hosted Influship MCP server. It keeps the data, auth, billing, and rate limits on the same production API surface as the remote server.
For local development or staging:
INFLUSHIP_API_KEY=YOUR_KEY INFLUSHIP_MCP_URL=http://localhost:8080/mcp npx -y @influship/mcp
Client Config
{
"mcpServers": {
"influship": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@influship/mcp"],
"env": {
"INFLUSHIP_API_KEY": "YOUR_KEY"
}
}
}
}

Publishing
The official MCP Registry metadata lives in server.json and advertises both
the hosted Streamable HTTP server and the npm stdio package.
pnpm install
pnpm test
pnpm build
npm publish --access public
After npm publish, submit server.json with the official MCP Registry publisher
and use this repository URL for directory submissions.
