Overview

This is a functional MCP server that implements scraping capabilities for major social media platforms. The server exposes tools to extract profile information from LinkedIn, Facebook, and Instagram, as well as perform web searches using Google Serper API. It uses FastMCP for implementation and requires API keys from RapidAPI and Serper.dev. The project includes proper documentation, installation steps, and troubleshooting guidance.

Try asking AI

After installing, here are 6 things you can ask your AI assistant:

you:Researching professional backgrounds via LinkedIn profiles
you:Gathering public information about individuals from social media
you:Performing web searches and social media monitoring for intelligence gathering
you:What platforms does this MCP server support?
you:How do I get API keys for this server?
you:Is this server compatible with other AI assistants besides Claude?

When to choose this

Choose this server if you need to scrape public social media profiles and perform Google searches through MCP, and already have RapidAPI and Serper.dev API keys.

When NOT to choose this

Avoid this server if you need to scrape non-public data, don't want to deal with third-party API limits, or require more advanced search capabilities than basic Google results.
