An MCP server that resolves a company domain to its subreddit and samples public mentions of the brand. It wraps the Mamba Labs Reddit Brand Presence and Mention Monitor actor on Apify and returns a Clay-ready flat JSON row to any MCP client.

## What it does
Give it a company domain and it returns that company's subreddit, how alive that subreddit is, and a sample of how much the brand is being talked about across Reddit as a whole. One flat row per company, covering the subreddit URL, subscriber count, posting cadence and a mention sample.
Read this limitation before you build on it. Reddit refuses a share of requests however they are routed. Measured on the platform 2026-08-23 across nine companies over residential connections, the subreddit feed was readable for four and refused for five, and the mention feed the same. The public `.rss` feeds are the only open route; Reddit returns 403 on every unauthenticated JSON route. A refusal is reported as `blocked` and never as a zero, so an absence is never mistaken for a finding, and a `blocked` row is worth retrying. Supplying your own Reddit app client id and secret is the only route to a subscriber count.
All of the lookup runs on Apify. This package is a thin client that calls the actor and hands back the result unchanged.
## Quick start
You need Node.js 18 or newer and an Apify account with an API token.
Add this to your Claude Desktop config:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"mamba-reddit-brand-presence-mapper": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@mambalabsdev/mcp-reddit-brand-presence-mapper"],
"env": {
"APIFY_TOKEN": "your-apify-token"
}
}
}
}
```
Get your token at https://console.apify.com/account/integrations, paste it in, and restart Claude Desktop. The `map_reddit_brand_presence` tool will be available.
## Prerequisites
- Node.js 18 or newer
- An Apify account with an API token
- Optional: your own Reddit app client id and secret, free to create at reddit.com/prefs/apps, if you want the subscriber count
## Example prompts
- "Find the subreddit for monzo.com and tell me how active it is."
- "Map the Reddit presence for stripe.com and search mentions for \"stripe.com\" rather than the brand name."
- "Look up r/monzo and skip the site wide mention sample."
- "Is there an official subreddit for figma.com?"
## Inputs
- `company_domain` (optional): bare company domain, for example `shopify.com`. Supply this or a handle. With a domain the actor runs full discovery; with a handle it skips straight to the fetch.
- `company_name` (optional): improves search accuracy and is what the identity gate checks a discovered profile against, so supplying it reduces wrong matches.
- `handle` (optional): the subreddit name with or without the `r/` prefix, for example `stripe`. Supplying it skips discovery.
- `mentionQuery` (optional): what to search Reddit for when measuring brand mentions. Defaults to your domain in quotes, which is far more precise than the brand name. A bare search for `stripe` matches the English word; `"stripe.com"` returns developer subreddits.
- `includeMentions` (optional): when true (the default) a site wide mention sample is pulled alongside the subreddit. Set false for the official subreddit only, which is one fetch instead of two.
- `includeFollowerCounts` (optional): when true (the default) the profile is fetched and the counts are extracted. Set false to resolve the profile URL only, which is cheaper and needs no proxy.
- `skipCache` (optional): when false (the default) a successful lookup is cached for seven days and reused. Set true to force a fresh fetch.
- `redditClientId` (optional): your own Reddit app client id, free to create at reddit.com/prefs/apps. This is the only route to a subscriber count, because Reddit returns 403 on every unauthenticated JSON route. Leave it empty and everything else still works.
- `redditClientSecret` (optional): your own Reddit app client secret, paired with the client id above. Used for your run only and never stored.
- `max_charge_usd` (optional): spending cap for this call, in USD. The actor stops before any charge that would take the run past this amount and keeps every row already charged.
Supply either `company_domain` or `handle`.
## Output
The tool returns the actor's flat JSON row for the company, with 26 snake_case fields and no nested objects. `subreddit_status`, `subreddit_subscribers_status` and `mentions_status` are separate, so a blocked read is distinguishable from an empty one. See the Apify Store page for the full output schema.

- Posting cadence and recency, when Reddit serves them
- Site wide brand mention sample, when Reddit serves it
- A refused request is reported as `blocked`, never as a zero
- Your own Reddit app credentials unlock the subscriber count
- 26 flat snake_case fields, one row per company
## Pricing
You pay per event on Apify, billed to your own Apify account. Prices from the live pricing record, read 2026-10-16:
| Event | Price per event (USD) | Fires when |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `apify-actor-start` | $0.00005 | Charged when the Actor starts running. Number of events charged depends on Actor memory (one event per GB, minimum one event). |
| `company-checked` | $0.0095 on the Free plan, down to $0.00665 on higher Apify plans | Once per company for which the discovery cascade completed and a non degraded row was produced, whether or not a subreddit was found. Does not fire on a degraded row. |
| `profile-resolved` | $0.0065 on the Free plan, down to $0.00455 on higher Apify plans | Once per company whose candidate subreddit passed the identity gate and returned a readable public feed. Fires on the validation work, not on a populated subscriber cell. |
| `mention-sample-collected` | $0.008 on the Free plan, down to $0.0056 on higher Apify plans | Once per company for which the site wide mention feed returned at least one mention. A search that Reddit rate limited, or that returned nothing, does not charge. Never fires when mentions are turned off. |
The [actor's Apify page](https://apify.com/mambalabs/reddit-brand-presence-mapper) carries the current prices. Running this server consumes Apify credits.

## Mamba Labs GTM Suite
This server is one of the Mamba Labs GTM Suite MCP servers. Every actor in the suite takes a domain or a company and returns one flat row, so they stack in the same Clay table without reshaping anything. The actor behind this server is the Reddit Brand Presence and Mention Monitor, immutable Apify actor ID `pKQZmDaT70SEb54bZ`.

TDQS
A4.5/5.0
Scored across 1 tool
Disambiguation5/5
With a single tool there is no possibility of misselection, and its purpose (domain → official subreddit plus optional mention sample) is stated unambiguously. No overlapping or competing tools exist.
Naming Consistency5/5
The lone name map_reddit_brand_presence follows a clear verb_noun convention matching the server's stated purpose. There are no other names to conflict with it.
Tool Count3/5
The server is deliberately narrow (one company at a time, one flat row), so one tool is defensible, but a 1-tool surface is thin for anything beyond a single narrow lookup. It leaves no room for retries or partial re-fetches that the description itself says are needed.
Completeness4/5
The stated scope—resolve a domain to a subreddit and optionally sample mentions—is fully covered by the one tool, including documented blocked/refusal handling. Gaps (no post text, no historical monitoring, no retry tool) are explicitly declared out of scope, so agents can work around them.
