    TopYappers

    Social media intelligence for AI agents. Access viral content discovery, influencer search across TikTok, Instagram & YouTube, and trending song charts — all through a single MCP connection.

    What it does

    TopYappers gives AI agents real-time access to social media data across three domains:

    • Viral Content — Discover trending TikTok posts filtered by category, country, virality score (views÷followers), date range, music/sound, and opening hooks. Understand what's going viral and why.
    • Creators & Influencers — Search a database of 30M+ creators across TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube using 20+ filters including AI-analyzed niches, promoted products, follower ranges, engagement rates, country, language, and hashtags. Creator search is free — you only pay when fetching full profiles.
    • Trending Songs — Access weekly song chart rankings by country, track new chart entries, search by title or artist, view historical performance, and compare charts week-over-wee

    Requires a local install: run the server on your machine, then point your client at it.
