Dialog MCP Server

AI-Powered Reddit Intelligence for Market Research & Competitive Analysis

Version: 1.0.0

Turn Reddit's chaos into actionable insights. Dialog is your all-in-one Reddit intelligence platform for competitive analysis, market research, and customer discovery across 20,000+ active subreddits.

This is the official MCP server powering Dialog - the AI-powered Reddit research platform built for indie hackers, SaaS founders, product managers, and market researchers.

Why Dialog?

Evidence-based insights with full citations. Every finding links back to real Reddit posts and comments with upvote counts, awards, and direct URLs. When you say "users are complaining about X," you'll have the receipts to prove it.

Zero-friction setup. No Reddit API credentials needed. No terminal commands. No credential management. Just connect and start researching.

Semantic search at scale. Reddit's API caps at 250 search results. Dialog searches conceptually across 20,000+ indexed subreddits using vector embeddings, finding relevant communities you didn't know existed.

Persistent research management. Save subreddit collections into feeds for ongoing monitoring. Perfect for long-term competitive analysis and market research campaigns.
