Perplexity

Live media intelligence streaming

Feed your UI with live data by piping `search_content` directly into your streamText calls. You get raw mentions hitting your React components the second they arrive. Stop waiting for loading spinners. By binding this MCP server to your edge functions, your users see news pulses and social spikes as they populate the dashboard.

Instant analytics visualization

Use `get_search_analytics` to generate charts that update in real-time. Your application state stays current with the actual media volume rather than stale cached values. This setup works by passing the tool output straight to your frontend renderers. You control the update frequency, ensuring your users get the metrics they need without hitting API limits.

Mention tracking for Next.js

Trigger `get_mention_details` dynamically when a user clicks a specific result in your interface. It pulls the metadata for that exact piece of content instantly. This keeps your payload small and your responsiveness high. Your app only fetches the deep data when the user actually asks for it, saving bandwidth and keeping your Vercel costs down.

Setup guide

Set up Meltwater MCP in Vercel AI SDK

Prerequisites

Node.js 18+ and a TypeScript project
ai + @modelcontextprotocol/sdk packages
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install dependencies

Run npm install ai @modelcontextprotocol/sdk plus your preferred model provider (e.g. @ai-sdk/openai).
2

Create the Streamable HTTP transport

Use StreamableHTTPClientTransport with your Vinkius endpoint URL. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Discover and use tools

Call mcpClient.tools() to auto-discover all Meltwater tools. Pass them directly to generateText() or streamText() — no manual schema definitions needed.
4

Works with any model provider

Swap openai("gpt-4o") for any AI SDK provider — Anthropic, Google, Mistral. The MCP tools work identically across all supported models.

index.ts

import { experimental_createMCPClient as createMCPClient } from "ai";
import { StreamableHTTPClientTransport } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/client/streamableHttp";
import { generateText } from "ai";
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai";

const transport = new StreamableHTTPClientTransport(
  new URL("https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp")
);

const mcpClient = await createMCPClient({ transport });
const tools = await mcpClient.tools();

const { text } = await generateText({
  model: openai("gpt-4o"),
  tools,
  prompt: "List recent Meltwater transactions",
});

console.log(text);
await mcpClient.close();
