Power your AI Agents with Social Context
Give your agent eyes on social data: what’s trending, who’s driving it, and why it’s landing.
Klint watches every video and reads every post
So your agent can find which hooks are trending, which creators are outperforming, and extract insights from any post.
500K

25M
posts transcribed, read, and classified

See what you can do when you give your agent access to clean social data.
Agent native
Built for AI Agents
One command and your agent has the tools. From there it searches, qualifies, and extracts on its own.
Do it yourself
Connect through the CLI and skills, or add the MCP server to the client you already work in.
$npx klint@latest initLet your agent do it
Paste one line into your coding agent. It fetches the docs, learns how to use Klint, and wires it into your project.
Fetch https://tryklint.ai/docs/for-agents/coding-agents.md and set up Klint for this project.Search posts
Search by content, filter on everything else.
Find posts your agent can act on. One plain-language query searches inside the video itself. Every match comes back with its transcript, on-screen text, and engagement metrics.
- Semantic query
- One sentence, matched inside the video
- Craft filters
- How a post was made, not what it’s about
- Topic filters
- Exact catalog subjects, not keywords
- Commerce filters
- Promo context and partnership labels
- Outlier filter
- Posts that ran 2× their baseline views or better
- Reach filters
- Views, likes, comments, engagement rate
- Author gates
- Follower range, niche, type, and location

Search accounts
Find creators by what they actually publish.
One request turns a description into a qualified creator list. Each account comes back complete, with its publishing summary, niches, languages, and counts.
- Semantic query
- Who they are, in one sentence
- Publishing proof
- Qualified on posts, not on a bio
- Post filters
- The whole post grammar, inside an account
- Follower range
- Find them before they get expensive
- Niche filters
- Catalog values, not self-declared
- Location filters
- Declared by them, never inferred

Extract
Everything from a single post or account.
One request turns a post or account into agent-ready JSON. Klint has already watched the video, so you get the transcript, the on-screen text with timecodes, what was in frame, and the hook, offer, and structure it read.
- Every word
- The full transcript, never just the caption
- Text on screen
- Every word burned into the video, with the seconds it held
- Creative read
- Hook devices, formats, and structure, as catalog values you can filter on
- Performance
- Views against this account’s own baseline, not a category average
Input

Frequently asked questions
Everything worth knowing before getting started.
01
What is Klint?
What is Klint?
Klint is the social context API. It watches Instagram posts, reads them closely, and hands your agent structured data it can query. There are three core endpoints: search posts, search accounts, and extract.
Read the docsHow is this different from a scraper?
A scraper hands you a caption, a thumbnail, and a video file, then leaves the watching to you. Klint has already watched. You get the transcript, the words on screen with their timings, what was in frame, and how the post was built, all on one call. You can search across any of it.
Can I really search by what a video says?
That’s the whole idea. One plain-language query runs over speech, on-screen text, visuals, and creative structure at once, and hard filters on metrics and profile facts pin it down. A concept somebody ran but never captioned still comes back.
How a query qualifies02
Can I trust the data?
Where does the data come from?
Public Instagram posts and profiles. Klint does the collection once, centrally, so you don’t run proxies, fight login walls, or store raw video. Media is served from Klint’s own routes.
How current is it?
Klint captures new posts continuously and keeps watching the accounts it already tracks. Every metric carries the timestamp it was observed at, so your agent knows when a view count was true instead of assuming it’s true now.
What if Klint hasn't seen the post I need?
You get a 404 not-tracked, which says exactly that: Klint hasn’t observed this post. It doesn’t claim the post is gone from Instagram, and it won’t fill the gap with a partial record. Klint watches publisher and creator accounts, not all of Instagram, so a miss usually means nobody has asked for that one yet. Asking queues it to be read.
What extract resolves againstHow accurate is it?
Every classification comes from a fixed catalog, not free text, so one label means the same thing on every post Klint has read. The evidence ships beside it: the transcript, the words on screen with their timings, and what was in frame. You can check any call against the source. Anything Klint couldn’t establish comes back as null, never zero and never a guess.
03
Does it work with my agent?
Can my agent set this up on its own?
Yes, and it’s the path we’d take. Paste one line into your coding agent and it fetches the docs, learns how to use Klint, and wires it into your project. One command in a terminal does the same, and installs every cookbook as a skill.
Both setup pathsIs there an MCP server?
One server, every capability, at mcp.tryklint.ai. It’s a single command in Claude Code or Codex, one click in Cursor or VS Code, and any other MCP client can point straight at the URL.
Connect your clientDo the docs work for agents?
They were written for them. Append .md to any page for raw markdown, /llms.txt indexes the site, and the entire contract sits on one page an agent can fetch in a single request. Errors name the fix, not just the failure.
Klint for coding agents04
Can I use this today?
Is Instagram the only platform?
Instagram today, and covered deeply. TikTok, YouTube, and other channels follow on the same API and the same response shapes, so what you build now keeps working when they land.
What does it take to start?
Create a key and run one request. There’s no sales call and no onboarding, and nothing to install if you’d rather call the API directly. The quickstart is three steps, and the first takes about thirty seconds.
Run the quickstartWhere does this go next?
Search is where it starts. Klint keeps watching, so performance history, baselines, and monitoring accumulate on the same API and against the same identifiers you integrate with today.
