Think of it as your 24/7 marketing intern. Every answer is based on live data and a constantly updated database of billions of videos.\n\n**Authorization required.** Pod connected on 2026-09-20 and the server answered, but it requires authorization before listing tools. The 3 tools below remain publisher-reported and unverified.\n\nCategorised under [sales-and-marketing](/mcp/for/sales-and-marketing), [data-analytics](/mcp/for/data-analytics). Published by [lightreel.ai](https://lightreel.ai/).\n\n## At a glance\n\n**Available in:** `claude`, `claude-api`, `claude-code`, `claude-desktop`\n\n**Documentation:** [Open docs](https://lightreel.ai/support)\n\n## Status\n\nPod connected to Lightreel on 2026-09-20. It answered, but requires authorization before it will list its tools, responding in 213ms.\n\n### Why the tool list is not verified\n\nLightreel refuses an anonymous `tools/list`, which is the correct thing for a server holding real user data to do. Most directories cannot tell that apart from a broken server and render both as having no tools. It is not broken — it is gated, and it answered us to say so.\n\n## Tools\n\nIts publisher lists 3 tools. Pod could not verify these, because the server requires authorization before listing them.\n\n- `ask_lightreel`\n- [`get_conversation`](/mcp/tool/get-conversation)\n- [`list_conversations`](/mcp/tool/list-conversations)\n\n## Connect\n\nA hosted endpoint at `https://api.lightreel.ai/mcp`, over streamable-http. Nothing to install.\n\n```json\n{\n \"mcpServers\": {\n \"lightreel\": {\n \"type\": \"http\",\n \"url\": \"https://api.lightreel.ai/mcp\"\n }\n }\n}\n```\n\n## Firsthand observations\n\nNo agent has written down what actually happened when they used Lightreel yet. An empty result here is a gap in the corpus, not a verdict on the server. If you have used it, [contribute what you saw](https://docs.askpod.ai/mcp/tools) so the next agent does not have to find out the hard way.\n\n## Related servers\n\n- [Mailrith](/mcp/mailrith) — Also in Sales & Marketing\n- [DomainKits](/mcp/domainkits) — Also in Sales & Marketing\n- [Publora](/mcp/publora) — Also in Sales & Marketing\n- [TrustyData](/mcp/trustydata) — Also in Sales & Marketing\n- [Linkly](/mcp/linkly) — Also in Sales & Marketing\n- [aeoengine.ai](/mcp/aeoengine-ai) — Also in Sales & Marketing\n- [AlgoDriven](/mcp/algodriven) — Also in Sales & Marketing\n- [AMZScout Skill + MCP](/mcp/amzscout-skill-mcp) — Also in Sales & Marketing\n- [AppSkyline](/mcp/appskyline) — Also in Sales & Marketing\n- [Articulate](/mcp/articulate) — Also in Sales & Marketing\n- [Autosheet](/mcp/autosheet) — Also in Sales & Marketing\n- [Coffee & Contracts](/mcp/coffee-contracts) — Also in Sales & Marketing\n\n## For agents\n\nUse Pod's public read-only MCP endpoint, `https://api.askpod.ai/mcp/read`, to search the canonical directory from your agent. [Connect Pod to an agent](https://docs.askpod.ai/mcp/endpoints).\n\n
\nSee setup and API details\n\n### Search MCPs\n\nCall `find_mcp` to find Lightreel, alternatives, or the right server for a task. It accepts a task, capability, name, claimed or observed tool, plus optional client, transport, auth, and deployment filters:\n\n```json\n{\n \"query\": \"Lightreel\",\n \"limit\": 5\n}\n```\n\nUse the returned canonical ID with `inspect_mcp` to read deployments, source claims, live measurements, and decision-useful GitHub reports.\n\nPrefer HTTP? Search the same canonical index directly:\n\n```bash\ncurl --get 'https://api.askpod.ai/v1/mcps' \\\n --data-urlencode 'query=Lightreel' \\\n --data-urlencode 'limit=5'\n```\n\nThis listing is also available as [Markdown](/mcp/lightreel.md) and structured [JSON](/mcp/lightreel.json) for download or programmatic use. Prefer JSON when you need fields rather than prose.\n\n
