# TubeText MCP servers

Remote MCP servers that give Claude, Cursor, VS Code, ChatGPT and any other MCP client access to [TubeText](https://apify.com/tubetext) tools: video transcripts, AI video breakdowns, ad library data, e-commerce prices, reviews, China data and travel prices.

There is nothing to install or host. Each server is a URL on Apify's hosted MCP server (`mcp.apify.com`) that exposes a small, focused set of TubeText Actors as tools. You sign in with your own Apify account (OAuth) or pass your Apify API token. You pay per result at each Actor's Store price, with a free monthly credit on every Apify account.

## Costs and safety

- Every tool is a pay-per-event Apify Actor. Each Actor's Store page lists its price. Failed or empty results are not billed.
- The Actors accept a maximum cost per run and stop cleanly when they reach it. The MCP server sets no cap of its own, so ask your agent to pass `maxTotalChargeUsd` for large jobs.
- No login or cookies are used. The tools read public pages only.
