Search 455M+ Instagram, TikTok and YouTube creators and analyze influencers from your AI assistant.
Documentation · Website · Support
IQFluence MCP is a remote Model Context Protocol server that gives AI assistants access to IQFluence influencer data: 455M+ Instagram, TikTok and YouTube creators. From Claude, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor, VS Code, Gemini CLI and other MCP clients you can find creators, open audience reports with fake-follower checks, compare creators, check audience overlap, build media plans, read posts and comments, and see Campaign Monitoring results.
The server is hosted by IQFluence, so there is nothing to install or run. This repository holds its public description and ready-made client configs.
| Server URL | https://mcp.iqfluence.io/mcp |
| Transport | Streamable HTTP (remote) |
| Authentication | OAuth 2.1 in the browser; Authorization: Bearer <API key> for scripts and CI |
| Account | An IQFluence account is required. Create one for free |
| Registry | io.iqfluence/mcp in the official MCP Registry |
Connect
Every client uses the same server URL and signs in through the browser (OAuth): the assistant opens an IQFluence window, you check the account and click Allow access.
Claude (web, Desktop, mobile)
- Open Customize → Connectors, click Add → Add custom connector.
- Name:
IQFluence, URL:https://mcp.iqfluence.io/mcp. Click Add, then Connect.
In Claude Team and Enterprise the organization owner adds the connector in Organization settings → Connectors, then each member connects their own IQFluence account.
Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http --scope user iqfluence https://mcp.iqfluence.io/mcp
claude mcp login iqfluence
ChatGPT
Custom MCP servers work on the ChatGPT website on Pro, Business, Enterprise and Edu plans with developer mode turned on (Settings → Apps → Advanced settings → Developer mode).
- Pro: Plugins → Add → Add custom MCP server. Name
IQFluence, URLhttps://mcp.iqfluence.io/mcp, authentication OAuth. - Business, Enterprise, Edu: the workspace admin creates the app in Workspace settings → Apps → Create with the same URL and OAuth, then publishes it; employees connect their own IQFluence accounts.
Codex
codex mcp add iqfluence --url https://mcp.iqfluence.io/mcp
Cursor
Add to ~/.cursor/mcp.json or .cursor/mcp.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"iqfluence": {
"url": "https://mcp.iqfluence.io/mcp"
}
}
}
VS Code (Copilot)
Run MCP: Add Server → HTTP from the Command Palette, or add to .vscode/mcp.json:
{
"servers": {
"iqfluence": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://mcp.iqfluence.io/mcp"
}
}
}
Gemini CLI
Install this repository as an extension:
gemini extensions install https://github.com/iqfluence/iqfluence-mcp
or add the server directly:
gemini mcp add --transport http iqfluence https://mcp.iqfluence.io/mcp
Then run /mcp auth iqfluence inside Gemini CLI.
API key instead of OAuth
For scripts and CI, create a key in Profile → API keys on iqfluence.io and send it as a header:
claude mcp add --transport http --scope user iqfluence https://mcp.iqfluence.io/mcp \
--header "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

Data and privacy
The server receives only what the assistant sends in a tool call: the tool name and its arguments. It does not receive your conversation or files. Tool calls are processed on IQFluence infrastructure in the EU (Germany), are not sent to AI models and are not used for training. Each connection appears as an "MCP · assistant name" key in Profile → API keys, where you can set a daily credit limit or revoke access at once.

Comments
New to MCP?
From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
