MCP
Bring veridive into your AI assistant
The veridive MCP server lets Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor — any MCP-compatible client — search, research, and chat over YouTube transcripts through natural conversation. DeepSearch, DeepQuery, DeepContext, and 12 tools, straight from your assistant.
What is the MCP server?
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that lets AI assistants connect to external tools and data. The veridive MCP server gives your assistant direct access to your library and our YouTube research pipelines.
Natural language
Ask in plain English — no code. Your assistant picks the right tool and calls it for you.
12 tools
From transcript search and library import to agentic research that synthesizes grounded answers.
Secure & metered
Bearer-token auth, the same credits and limits as the app. Available on every plan.
See it work, end-to-end
Pick a prompt, hit Run, and watch the matching Deep tool fire phase-by-phase — then the grounded result reveals.

Twelve tools, exposed to any MCP client. The three “Deep” tools mirror veridive's DeepQuery, DeepContext, and DeepSearch.
deep_queryCreditsAgentic YouTube research: search → select → transcribe → retrieve → generate, returning a grounded answer with inline timestamp citations.
deep_contextCreditsChat over a selection of videos in your library. Answers are grounded in those transcripts with citations back to the exact chunks.
deep_searchCreditsFind the videos that actually answer a query — ranked cards with quality verdicts (ad-free, high-density, actionable…), not just the most-viewed.
library_searchFreeFull-text search across the videos in your library.
library_listFreeBrowse and filter your saved content with sorting.
library_import_youtube_videoCreditsImport a single YouTube video into your library.
library_import_youtube_channelCreditsImport a whole channel (or playlist) into your library.
get_youtube_transcriptFreeFetch the stored transcript + metadata for an imported video.
run_youtube_toolCreditsRun any of 32 tools on a video — summarizer, flashcards, quiz, study notes, blog post, and more.
chatCreditsPlain conversational chat with no YouTube retrieval — follow-ups, clarifications, brainstorming.
pingFreeHealth check — verify your client can reach veridive.
get_credit_statusFreeRead your wallet balance, plan tier, and today's free-quota remaining.
Credits & quotas
On every plan
The MCP server is open on every plan, including Free. Usage is credit-metered — connecting only needs credits in your wallet.
See plansA daily free budget
Catalog tool runs (run_youtube_tool) come with a daily free credit budget that resets each day; beyond it, runs draw from your wallet. Check anytime with get_credit_status.
Fair-use rate limits apply per account (per-tool, per-minute, and a short burst window). Long-running tools like deep_query stream progress while they work.
What people actually do with it
Browse allSee the real workflows — research, due diligence, content, learning, automation — each with prompts you can paste straight into your assistant.
Line up every earnings interview a CEO has given and watch the language shift — hedging, guidance drift, blame patterns — before it reaches the filings.
Blog post, X thread, LinkedIn post, newsletter section, Shorts script — one upload, six assets, same day.
Surface every interview, panel and keynote where a competitor's CEO speaks, and distill what they're signaling about strategy and roadmap — before it ships.
Study notes plus a self-test quiz from one long lecture — study the distilled version, test yourself, go back only where you fail.
Curate once, query forever: shared imports become a common brain with citations instead of link-dump Slack threads.
A scheduled agent checks the connection, sweeps the last day's uploads in your space, and drops summaries before your first coffee.
