Documentation

Full README

Brand Sponsor Finder MCP Server

Find the brands that paid creators in a niche in the last 90 days, with the public evidence for each placement. One row per brand with a recency score, and one row per sighting with its evidence link, date, and promo code.

License

What it does

Reads public YouTube video descriptions (channel feeds, or your own YouTube Data API key), podcast show notes, newsletter issues, and event sponsor pages for sponsor lines, promo codes, and sponsor slots.
Follows shortlinks and affiliate redirects to the brand's own domain, and merges every sighting into one row per brand domain.
Checks the brands it found for open partnership job posts (Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby) and creator or affiliate program pages, which become the brand's public contact.
Returns only sightings inside your date window, each with an evidence link. Instagram, TikTok, and the Meta Ad Library are not read.

All of the work runs on Apify. This package is a thin client that starts the actor run, waits for it, and hands back the dataset rows.

Row cap and paging

One run can return hundreds of rows (633 rows and about 0.8 MB of text on a 30 day health and fitness search), which is more than an agent context holds. So each call returns at most max_rows rows: 50 unless you set it, and never more than 200.

The first call starts the run and returns the first page. The first content block is the JSON array of rows. The second is a paging block with run_id, total_rows, rows_returned, and next_cursor.
To get the next page, call find_brand_sponsors again with only cursor set to next_cursor. Add max_rows to change the page size.
Repeat until next_cursor is null.

A cursor call starts no run. It reads the next page of rows the first run already wrote, so no row is billed twice. A cursor works for as long as Apify keeps that run's dataset.

Quick start

You need Node.js 18 or newer and an Apify account with an API token.

Add this to your Claude Desktop config (claude_desktop_config.json), Cursor, or any MCP client:
