DataLikers — Claude Code MCP server: what it does, how to install
Connects Instagram and TikTok data endpoints to your AI assistant. Useful for demographic creator searches, engagement tracking, and hashtag research.
claude mcp add datalikers-mcp -e DATALIKERS_API_KEY=<DATALIKERS_API_KEY> -- npx -y datalikers-mcpWhat DataLikers does
The server acts as a thin proxy bridging your coding assistant to the DataLikers platform. No heavy processing runs on your machine: requests go through stdio or directly via HTTP to the remote service. It delivers 29 tools covering user demographics, media captions, comments, stories, and background music tracks.
Audience filters let you isolate accounts by age, gender, geographic area, and emotional tone. Without setting DATALIKERS_API_KEY, requests fail authentication immediately. While usage starts at $0.0003 per API query, new signups receive 100 trial calls without submitting payment card details.
What it helps with
- Filter social media accounts by age, gender, and city
- Calculate average likes and comments across recent posts
- Track trending reels audio and popular hashtags
- Search post captions and comments for specific topics
