Perplexity

Automatically build user profiles using Untappd's MCP Server

Want to know what a friend has been up to? Just tell the agent. It handles checking the activity feed, getting details on specific beers, and even pulling data from `get_friend_activity`. You don't have to prompt for each step. Cascade reads context, knows you want a full picture, and executes a multi-tool sequence automatically. It’ll pull everything together—like finding out what brewery your friend checked into last week.

Monitor venue activity and local beer trends with Untappd's MCP Server

Need to know if that spot downtown is worth checking out? The agent checks the `get_venue_activity` feed for specific locations. You can also check global popularity by calling `get_trending_beers`, which shows both macro and micro trending beers right away. If you're building a local discovery tool, this is huge. It pulls live activity feeds for venues or even just gives you detailed info on a brewery using `get_brewery_info`.

Manage friend requests and social connections with Untappd

The agent makes handling your friends easy. If someone sends a request, it surfaces the pending list via `get_pending_friends`. You can then choose to `accept_friend` or `reject_friend` using one goal prompt. It even lets you manage comments and connections: add a comment on an existing check-in with `add_comment`, or remove your own contribution later with `remove_comment`.
