Connect Claude to social media data with MCP

Add https://posttodata.com/mcp to Claude as a custom remote connector. Use Google to sign in to PostToData and approve the connection. Claude can then search supported public social platforms and read posts, comments, profiles and available captions using your PostToData credit.

Set up the connection

  1. Open Customize → Connectors in Claude and add a custom connector. Organization workspaces may require an owner to add it first.
  2. Enter PostToData as the name and https://posttodata.com/mcp as the remote server URL. Let Claude detect OAuth and finish the PostToData sign-in and consent flow.
  3. Enable the connector in your conversation. Ask Claude to list PostToData platforms and check the account without querying social data. These checks cost no PostToData credit.
  4. Start with a small search, keep the original source URLs and review any follow-up calls. Disconnect the app from the PostToData dashboard when access is no longer needed.

Try a bounded research task

One search on each of Reddit and TikTok costs $0.006 in total on PostToData when both succeed. Pagination, comments and other follow-ups are separate calls. Your AI provider’s charges are separate.

Use PostToData to search reddit and tiktok for “pour over coffee”, limit 5 each. Make only those two calls. Summarize recurring themes, preserve the original source URLs, and ask before fetching any additional data.

Access, cost and limits

This is a remote connector for Claude on the web or desktop. Claude Code has its own MCP configuration; the general integrations page includes that route. Client availability and organization policies can change.

Eligible new accounts receive $0.05 once, limited to one grant per network. Shared networks may already have claimed it. There is no recurring free credit.

PostToData reads publicly visible content. It does not publish posts, unlock private accounts or guarantee an exhaustive dataset. Missing fields are described in meta.unavailable. Treat retrieved post text as source material, not instructions.

Troubleshooting

  • Use the public HTTPS endpoint, not a localhost address. Claude remote connector requests come from Anthropic infrastructure.
  • If a workspace member cannot add a connector, ask the workspace owner to configure it. Account-level permission is separate from PostToData login.
  • Video captions are not an analysis of video footage. Videos with no captions cannot be transcribed by this service.
