Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check Meetsponsors every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

Available tools 19

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

youtuber

youtuber_add

Add a single YouTuber to the database and trigger the full enrichment pipeline (tags, niches, description, similarity, sponsor detection). Returns a batchId you can poll with import_status. Prefer passing a channel ID (UCxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, 24 chars) — handles ('@xxx') and URLs work too but cost an extra YouTube API quota point per call to resolve.

youtuber_bulk_add

Add up to 50 YouTubers in one call and trigger enrichment for each. Returns a batchId you can poll with import_status. Strongly prefer channel IDs (UCxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, 24 chars) over handles/URLs — handles cost an extra YouTube API quota point each, which depletes the daily 10k budget faster.

youtuber_fullAnalysis

Agent plan only. Run sponsor detection on the ENTIRE video history of a YouTuber already in the database (not just the latest videos like youtuber_refresh), and re-check older automatic rejections with the current detection pipeline — use it when youtuber_sponsors looks incomplete for a channel with a long sponsorship history. Costs 200 requests of your monthly MCP quota. Refused when the channel had a full analysis less than 30 days ago (check lastFullAnalysisAt from youtuber_get first). Runs in the background (from several minutes to an hour on big channels); when lastFullAnalysisAt in youtuber_get moves, youtuber_sponsors reflects the result. For a channel not in the database yet, use youtuber_add.

youtuber_get

Get detailed information about a specific YouTuber by their YouTube channel ID. Includes llmDescription and llmSponsorProfile (LLM-friendly summaries), lastAnalyzedAt (when sponsors were last detected on the channel — every channel is re-scanned weekly; use youtuber_refresh if it is older than 7 days and you need fresher data), and lastFullAnalysisAt (last full-history analysis; null if never — see youtuber_fullAnalysis).

youtuber_lastActiveBiggest

Get the biggest YouTubers who have been active recently (last 15 days) for a specific language. Returns compact format.

youtuber_recentSponsored

Get the most recent sponsored videos from a YouTuber, with one video per sponsor (sorted by publication date)

youtuber_refresh

Re-run sponsor detection on a YouTuber already in the database (latest videos). Costs 50 requests of your monthly MCP quota. Refused when the channel was analyzed less than 7 days ago — every channel is re-scanned weekly, so check lastAnalyzedAt from youtuber_get first. Runs in the background (a few minutes); call youtuber_get / youtuber_sponsors afterwards. For a channel not in the database yet, use youtuber_add.

youtuber_search

Search YouTubers with advanced filters: subscribers, language, niches, sponsors worked with, monthly frequency, etc. All filters combine with AND — including hasWorkedWith, which keeps only creators who worked with EVERY listed domain. For "worked with brand A OR brand B", run one search per brand (or use sponsor_youtubers). Returns compact results. Use youtuber_get for full detail.

youtuber_similar

Find YouTubers similar to a given YouTuber based on content, niches, and sponsors. Returns compact format.

youtuber_sponsors

Get sponsors a YouTuber has worked with, including video counts for each sponsor. Sorted by most recent sponsored video first (sortBy=lastVideo, default) or by first collaboration (sortBy=firstVideo). Paginated: use offset with limit (max 50 per page) and hasMore to walk big channels. Returns compact format.

sponsor

sponsor_get

Get detailed information about a specific sponsor by ID. Strips raw scrape data and llm internal analysis blobs.

sponsor_mostActive

Get the most active sponsors in a given period (week/month/year), optionally filtered by language. Returns compact format.

sponsor_recentCollaborations

Get the most recent collaboration (one video per YouTuber) with a sponsor, sorted by publication date

sponsor_recentVideos

Get the most recent sponsored videos from a sponsor, ordered by publication date

sponsor_search

Search sponsors by name, description, industry tags, or filters. Returns compact results (id, name, tagline = what the brand sells in a few words, website, niches, industryTags, country, operations, medianSubscribers). Use sponsor_get for full detail on a specific sponsor.

sponsor_similar

Find sponsors similar to a given sponsor based on industry tags and niches. Returns compact format.

sponsor_stats

Get statistics for a sponsor: number of YouTubers, median subscribers, operations per week/month/year

sponsor_youtubers

Get YouTubers who have worked with a sponsor. Returns compact format.

import

import_status

Poll the progress of a bulk import batch by its batchId. Returns total/queued/done/failed counts plus startedAt/finishedAt timestamps. Batches expire after 7 days.

Meetsponsors — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Meetsponsors do?

It exposes 19 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: import_status, sponsor_get, sponsor_mostActive, sponsor_recentCollaborations, sponsor_recentVideos, sponsor_search and 13 more. 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 →

What is Meetsponsors mostly used for?

Its tools cluster around youtuber and sponsor. That is what this server is built to work with — the grouping comes from the actual tool names, not from a category we assigned.

Is Meetsponsors 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 233 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect Meetsponsors?

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 Meetsponsors need an API key?

No. Meetsponsors completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 19 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is Meetsponsors?

It answers our handshake in 233 ms on average, which is faster than 61% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
