- YouTube content-strategy tool OutlierKit launched an API and MCP server letting users access its YouTube competitor research from Claude, Cursor and other MCP clients, instead of only its dashboard.
- The server ships 10 read-only tools: transcript pulls, comment extraction, keyword research, outlier searches, and channel-similarity matching.
- API access is included in Pro and Max plans; there's a 30-credit free trial, Hobby/Pro/Max tiers, and lifetime options.
- OutlierKit positions itself against VidIQ and TubeBuddy as a pre-production strategy tool, claiming 50M+ videos analyzed, 5M+ outliers detected, and 15,000+ users. Built by cofounders Jose, Ayush and Aditi; bootstrapped with no outside investment.
