Prompt · 10 variables
Build a creator shortlist from my brief using the IQFluence MCP. The brief has several audience markets with their own thresholds, countries that must stay under a cap, and content I do not want.

VARIABLES
- Platforms: {{PLATFORMS}} (any of instagram, tiktok, youtube; default all three)
- Market groups: {{MARKETS}} (one line per group, e.g. 'Kenya ≥45%' and 'Uruguay, Panama, El Salvador, Paraguay, Nicaragua, Honduras, Guatemala — any one ≥15%')
- Country caps: {{CAPS}} (e.g. 'United States ≤10%, Spain ≤10%')
- Audience: {{AUDIENCE}} (e.g. men, 25+)
- Topics: {{TOPICS}} (e.g. personal finance, business, entrepreneurship, trading, crypto, AI, professional development)
- Content to exclude: {{EXCLUSIONS}} (e.g. easy money, fast profit, pranks and clickbait, adult, politics, weapons, gambling)
- Minimums: {{MINIMUMS}} (e.g. ER ≥1% on instagram, ≥3,000 average views on tiktok/youtube, posted in the last 30 days)
- Example creators who fit: {{SEEDS}} (links; optional — used to confirm the niche and the language, NOT as lookalike seeds: a lookalike search with a narrow geo filter returns creators with a similar audience, not a similar topic)
- Creators already used or excluded: {{EXCLUDE_ACCOUNTS}} (links or handles; every result is checked against this list before unlocking)
- Creators I need per market group: {{N}} (default 10)

STEPS
1. Free: for every country in MARKETS and CAPS run lookup_filter_values (kind='location') and use the value whose type is 'country' — some names resolve to a city by default (Panama → Panama City). For TOPICS use kind='topic' to pick 1–2 hashtags; if the market's language is not English, use keywords in that language (e.g. 'finanzas personales') with language set, not hashtags.
2. One search per market group per platform, nothing else: search_influencers with audience_locations = that group's countries and audience_location_min_pct = the group's threshold, audience_gender and audience_age_from/to from AUDIENCE with audience_age_min_pct = 50, last_posted_within_days and the size or view floors from MINIMUMS (engagement_rate_min_pct on instagram; avg_views_min on tiktok and youtube), limit = 2.5 × N.
3. Screen on the free rows: drop every account in EXCLUDE_ACCOUNTS and the SEEDS themselves; drop rows whose category or name is a brand, a bank, a shop or an institution; drop rows whose name or category is clearly off-topic (keyword searches match loosely — an electric-car account can match 'personal finance'); drop ER above 20%. Rank by audience share in the group, then by average views (tiktok, youtube) or ER (instagram).
4. Unlock only enough hidden rows to reach N per group with unlock_search_results — one call per search, never mixing ids from different searches. Tell me the total first.
5. Tell me plainly what the free data cannot answer: the rows show only the share of the matched country, so (a) a CAP such as 'United States ≤10%' and (b) a combined share across several countries can only be checked with compare_influencers (1 credit per creator, up to 5 per call) — and EXCLUSIONS need a read of recent captions with get_creator_posts (0.02 per creator). Propose the finalists for both checks and wait for my OK.

COST RULES
- Expected spend for the shortlist: ~0.5 credits. The geo-cap and content checks cost ~1.02 per finalist — ask me before running them, and ask again before the total passes 5 credits.
- No get_influencer_report, audience_overlap or get_contacts in this task.

OUTPUT
- One table per market group, sorted by audience share in the group: platform, username, display name, followers, ER % or average views, matched country and its share %, male %, 25+ %.
- Under the tables: who was dropped and why (brand, off-topic, anomaly), in one line each.
- A short list 'Not yet verified' naming each CAP and EXCLUSION and the check that would verify it, with the finalists you propose and the cost.

What you get

A shortlist per market and platform, brands and off-niche accounts removed, with a clear list of what the free data proved and what still needs the paid geo and content checks.

Dropped: money254hq (media brand), fx_quee.n (FX trading — fast-profit risk, needs the content check).

Not yet verified: United States ≤10% → compare_influencers on 10 finalists (10 credits); 'easy money / gambling' exclusions → get_creator_posts on the same 10 (0.2 credits).

Tested

Kenya ≥45% + 7 LatAm countries ≥15% / men 25+ / finance / 3 platforms / seeds @MoneyVersations. Traps found: 'Panama' resolves to Panama City even when passed as a country; rows show only the matched country's share, so caps and sums need compare; unlock ids are bound to their own search — mixing ids from two searches fails (not charged); a lookalike of a Kenyan seed returns only Kenyan channels; Spanish keyword search pulled an EV account and an equipment shop

2026-11-09 · Claude · 0.5 credits

3 lookalike searches on YouTube with LatAm finance seeds (@MorisDieck, @omareducacionfinanciera, @InvertirdesdeCero) + 7 LatAm countries ≥15%. 0 of 8 verified accounts were finance: lookalike + narrow geo filter returns audience lookalikes (politics podcasts, cumbia, vlogs). Seeds are for niche/language only; keyword search in the market's language is the working path

Expansion to ~50 per market/direction: 18 keyword searches (Kenya en: finance/tech/business/career; LatAm es: inversiones/emprendimiento/criptomonedas/desarrollo personal/IA) × 3 platforms, ~330 hidden rows unlocked. Multi-word keywords act as an exact phrase and return 0 — use single words. Loose keyword matching: in small Spanish-speaking markets ~75% of unlocked rows were vlogs, football, news, politicians, shops and restaurants; only ~30 of 122 YouTube/Instagram rows were worth a profile check. The free rows are enough to judge the yield of a search — unlock in full only when the 3 free rows are on-topic. Audience-filtered small markets cap out well below 50 real creators per direction
