DataXAPI's MCP server has 8 Official Account, 15 Channels and 6 WeChat Search endpoints: articles in full with their reads and comments, Channels videos and comments, and WeChat Search results. In Claude, Cursor or ChatGPT you ask in a sentence, with no WeChat account of yours, from $0.0200 a call. DataXAPI reads WeChat Official Accounts with 8 endpoints, from $0.0200 a call; a failed call is not charged, and the free trial covers up to 333 calls.

How do I connect it?
To connect: paste this to your AI assistant: “Read https://dataxapi.com/agents.md and set up DataXAPI here. My API key is dx_…; use it for every DataXAPI call.” A client that takes a remote MCP server can be given https://api.dataxapi.com/mcp with the header Authorization: Bearer <key> instead.
What can I ask about WeChat?
An article is named by its link and an account by its gh_ original ID; with only a name, the AI finds the ID through WeChat Search first.
| You say | What it calls |
|---|---|
| An account's last 20 articles, with titles and reads | wechat.accounts.search, wechat_mp.accounts.articles.list, wechat_mp.articles.metrics |
| Sum up this article (a link) and its featured comments | wechat_mp.articles.get, wechat_mp.articles.comments.list |
| This week's articles and videos on AI 眼镜 in WeChat Search | wechat.posts.search |
| This Channels account's latest videos and comments | wechat_channels.users.videos.list, wechat_channels.videos.comments.list |
Good to know
Reads need the article's long link. It reads public data only and cannot publish, comment or reply. Finding endpoints and reading prices is free, and a failed call is not charged.
Why DataXAPI
- Steady: endpoints were available 99.9% of the last 30 days, on a public status page you can check.
- Fast: a paid call took 3.5 seconds at the median over the last 7 days (counted 2026-11-06).
- Fewer tokens: across 8 endpoints on WeChat Official Accounts, one recorded real response each, the platform's own JSON comes to 21k tokens and what an AI reads through DataXAPI's MCP server to 4,494, 79% fewer; the JSON of a direct API call is 70% fewer too (counted 2026-11-06). Every platform answers in one shape: the author in
author, counts inmetrics, the next page inpage.next_cursor, so another platform needs no new parser. - See before you pay: every endpoint's page shows a recorded real response, field by field.
- Spending you control: a failed call is not charged; each key can have a limit,
X-Max-Pricecaps one call, and the sameIdempotency-Keywithin 24 hours is never charged twice. - Ready for AI: a remote MCP server listed in the official MCP registry as
com.dataxapi/mcp, usable from Claude, Cursor and ChatGPT. - Free trial of up to 333 calls, no card.
Endpoints
Each with its price; every page has the parameters, the fields and a recorded response.
