Perplexity

Scan Reddit and 4chan with Claude Desktop

Claude Desktop pulls raw forum hype into your chat when you use `list_wallstreetbets` or `list_trending_4chan`. You don't have to scroll through trash posts to find the next retail pump. Your client parses the chaos using `list_trending_subreddit` to isolate specific communities. It spots momentum shifts before they hit your terminal.

Filter noise for actual market sentiment

Stop guessing if a stock is being hyped or hated. This MCP Server lets Claude Desktop query `get_sentiment_leaders` to pull the exact ratio of positive to negative posts. If a ticker is spiking, your client uses `get_top_gainers` to see if the hype has legs or if it's just a momentary blip. You get clean numbers, not vibes.

Get instant stock and crypto snapshots

You can check the entire retail board activity with one prompt using this MCP tool. Claude Desktop calls `get_market_snapshot` to list the tickers getting the most chatter right now. When you need to drill down on a specific coin, Claude runs `search_ticker` to pull historical mention rates. It gives you the raw data to make your move.
