Streaming Availability MCP Service Description

1. Service Description

Streaming Availability is a standardized MCP (Model Context Protocol) service that simplifies access to global streaming content data. It aggregates real-time information on movies, series, seasons, and episodes across 60+ countries and major platforms—including Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+, HBO, Hulu, and Apple TV. Whether you need to check where a show is streamable, track content changes, or analyze market coverage, this service centralizes fragmented data into a user-friendly format. Its value lies in eliminating manual research, reducing integration complexity, and providing actionable insights (like deep links for direct access) to power apps, tools, or services that rely on accurate streaming availability data.

2. Tool Names and Functions

The service includes 7 tools (1 deprecated), each designed to address specific streaming data needs:

Get Changes: Queries new, removed, updated, expiring, or upcoming content on specified streaming services. Results are date-ordered, with 25 changes per page, and separate "changes" (e.g., "added") from "shows" (affected content).
Search Shows by Filters: Searches a country’s streaming catalogs using filters (language, genre, keyword, release year). Returns detailed show info (title, IMDb/TMDb IDs, deep links, subtitles, video quality) and availability on other local services. Pagination varies by show type/granularity.
Deprecated: No longer in use.
Get Show: Retrieves show details (via ID, IMDb ID, or TMDb ID) including global streaming availability.
Get Country: Provides a country’s supported streaming services, with details like names, logos, streaming types (subscription, rent, free), and addons/channels.
Get Genres: Returns a list of supported genres for filtering.
Get Countries: Lists all supported countries, with each country’s service details (same as Get Country).
Search Shows by Title: Searches movies/series by title. Returns up to 20 items (or all exact matches if over 20), including target country availability. No pagination.

3. Tool Introduction

Each tool solves practical user challenges:

Get Changes: Perfect for tracking content shifts. For example, a streaming guide app can use it to notify users of new Netflix additions or expiring Prime Video shows, keeping audiences engaged.
Search Shows by Filters: Enables precise discovery—e.g., "find 2023 French thrillers on Disney+ in Germany"—with all technical details (subtitles, 4K support) and local competitor availability, simplifying content curation.
Get Show: Lets users dive into a specific show’s global reach. A recommendation engine could use it to suggest "where to watch Stranger Things" across 60 countries, enhancing user trust.
Get Country/Countries: Helps analyze market coverage. A media analyst can quickly compare "supported services in Brazil vs. Japan" or check if a platform offers "free streaming in India," aiding market entry strategies.
Get Genres: Ensures filter accuracy. Developers building search tools can align user inputs (e.g., "comedy") with the service’s standardized genre list, avoiding mismatches.
Search Shows by Title: Facilitates quick lookups. A user searching "Inception" gets immediate results, including where it streams in their country—even if the show isn’t available locally, ensuring transparency.

4. Application Scenarios and Integration Advantages

Application Scenarios:

Content Discovery Apps: Use Search Shows by Filters/Title to let users find shows by genre, language, or title, with deep links for direct access.
Recommendation Engines: Leverage Get Show to highlight global availability, helping users find where to stream recommended content.
Market Analysts: Use Get Countries/Country to compare service offerings across regions, guiding content licensing or platform expansion.
Streaming Guides: Rely on Get Changes to update "what’s new" sections, keeping users informed.

Integration Advantages:
As an MCP service, it uses a standardized protocol, meaning consistent data structures and easy integration—no need to manage multiple platform APIs. This reduces development time and ensures reliable, uniform data across all use cases.

Streaming Availability simplifies streaming data access, empowering users to build smarter, more engaging tools without the hassle of fragmented sources.
