Prowlo MCP — Reddit & X for AI agents
Hosted MCP server that gives Claude, Cursor, Cline, or any MCP client clean, semantically-searchable Reddit and X data — via Prowlo's own independent, hosted crawl, read-only, with no Reddit API credentials.
Endpoint: https://api.prowlo.com/mcp · Homepage · Setup docs · Free 14-day trial, then $19/mo
Why a hosted Reddit MCP server?
Most free Reddit MCP servers broke in 2026, when Reddit started returning 403 on the unauthenticated endpoints they relied on. Prowlo runs the whole pipeline for you — an independent hosted crawl, filtering, embeddings, and the MCP endpoint — so it keeps working. Connect once and your agent can search, rank, and cite Reddit (and X) over time, instead of taking a one-off peek that breaks next week.
- Semantic search over a persistent Dataset (vector embeddings) — find by meaning, not keyword regex
- Clean typed JSON — no HTML scraping, no Reddit API, no glue code
- Read-only — Prowlo never posts; your agent finds and ranks, you stay in the loop
- Delivery over MCP + REST + webhooks, plus Slack/email Alerts
Connect in 30 seconds
