Nothing serious here today
Today is the operative word: we check Ottasia every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on.
If a tool disappears, we record the date.
new
new_this_week
List what is new on streaming this week in one language and country: films and shows that just arrived on a service there, plus (for English, Korean and Japanese/anime) series with new episodes this week.
Use for 'new Telugu movies on OTT this week', 'what's new in Malayalam', 'new anime this week in India', 'new K-dramas', 'new Bangla releases in Bangladesh'.
Language accepts a name (Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, Kannada, Bengali/Bangla, Urdu, Punjabi, Marathi, English, Korean, Japanese, Filipino, Indonesian, Thai, Arabic, Turkish, Chinese...) or 'anime' / 'K-drama'. Omit it for the country's main language.
titles
search_titles
Search OTTASIA's catalog for movies or TV shows by name. Returns multiple candidates with year, type, brief overview, and country-aware OTTASIA link.
Use this when a user asks 'find me X' or when a query is ambiguous (e.g. 'joker', 'the office') and you need to clarify which title they meant before checking availability.
Use where_to_watch instead when the user has already named a specific title and country and just wants the streaming providers.
whats
whats_new_on
List the latest movies and TV shows recently added to a specific streaming service in a specific country.
Use this tool when a user asks 'what's new on Netflix in India', 'any new shows on Wavve', 'what came out on Disney+ Hotstar this month', etc.
Common provider slugs to use as the `provider` argument:
netflix, prime-video, disney-plus-hotstar, jiohotstar, hulu-japan, wavve, tving, viu, vidio, iqiyi, shahid, osn-plus, starzplay, hoichoi, chorki, zee5, sun-nxt, aha, eros-now, manorama-max, shemaroo-me, crunchyroll, apple-tv-plus, hbo-max
Country must be a 2-letter ISO code from OTTASIA's 30 supported markets (IN PK BD ID MY PH SG TH MM KH LA BN CN HK JP KR TW KZ UZ TR IL LB JO SA AE KW QA BH OM EG).
Returns a list of recent arrivals with brief overviews + links. Pair with where_to_watch if the user wants details on a specific title.
when
when_streaming
Answer 'when is <movie> coming to OTT / Netflix / Prime in <country>' for OTTASIA's Asian, Middle Eastern and diaspora markets.
If the title already streams in that country, returns the services. If not, returns OTTASIA's predicted streaming date (from historical theatrical-to-OTT gaps, with a confidence level) when one exists, plus a link where the user can set a free alert for the day it lands.
Use where_to_watch for plain availability questions; use this when the user asks WHEN.
where
where_to_watch
Find which streaming services carry a specific movie or TV show in a specific Asian or Middle Eastern country.
Use this tool whenever a user asks 'where can I watch X in Y' for any of these 30 markets:
IN PK BD ID MY PH SG TH MM KH LA BN CN HK JP KR TW KZ UZ TR IL LB JO SA AE KW QA BH OM EG
Returns the matched title's official name + year + provider list grouped by category (subscription, free, free-with-ads, rent, buy).
Includes a link to OTTASIA's full title page for users who want trailers, cast, or alternate-country lookups.
Best for queries about availability on Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney+ Hotstar, JioCinema, Hulu Japan, Wavve, TVING, Shahid, OSN+, iQiyi, Viu, Vidio, RCTI+, Hoichoi, Chorki, ZEE5, Sun NXT, Aha, Eros Now, and other regional Asian/MENA streamers.

Ottasia — questions
Answers built from our own checks of this server.
What can Ottasia do?
It exposes 5 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: new_this_week, search_titles, whats_new_on, when_streaming, where_to_watch. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README.
How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is Ottasia working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 591 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Ottasia?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Ottasia need an API key?
No. Ottasia completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 5 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Ottasia?
It answers our handshake in 591 ms on average, which is faster than 18% of all working MCP servers we measure. That is on the slow side — worth knowing if the tool sits inside an interactive loop. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
How many people use Ottasia?
The npm package @ottasia/mcp-server was installed 61 times in the last week. Week over week that is +9%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Ottasia open source?
The code is open source: it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript and 1 stars on GitHub. The licence covers the code in the repository, not the hosted service at ottasia.com, which runs on its operator's own terms.
