Using Claude for content research

General agents are strong at reasoning over what you give them and weak at knowing what's actually happening in a niche right now. Ask Claude for "content ideas" cold and you get its priors, not this week's signal.

Niche closes that gap. It's a live MCP server, so Claude can call editorial intelligence as a capability — story discovery, signal ranking, the strongest angle — instead of improvising.

The workflow

1. Connect once. Add the Niche MCP endpoint to Claude Desktop, Claude Code, or any MCP client. (See integrations.)
2. Ask in plain language. "Find the ten biggest developments in defense tech this week and three non-obvious narratives I could publish." Claude calls Niche; the answer comes back grounded, each narrative citing real stories.
3. Stay in the loop. The agent presents discovery; you make the editorial call.
4. Draft from a pick. Hand any narrative to a draft without a new research run.

Why grounding matters

The narratives Niche returns are produced engine-side and fact-checked against their sources — so the agent presents a verified result instead of free-styling one. Provenance is the product.

Niche is editorial intelligence for individuals — it finds the stories worth writing about, then turns that signal into publishable content. Start the 3-day trial or connect it to your agent.
