Amazon Creators MCP server

Amazon Creators API MCP - paste-ready affiliate product cards, straight from a chat

If you write product round-ups, you already know the boring part. You find the product on Amazon, copy the image, grab the price, paste your affiliate link, and hope the price hasn't moved by the time someone reads the post. Then you do it again for the next nine products.

This does that part for you. You ask Claude to find something, it searches the live Amazon catalogue, and it hands you back a finished HTML card - image, price, savings, star rating, your Associates tag already baked into the link, and the disclosure footer Amazon requires. Paste it into WordPress, Ghost, Substack, whatever you write in. In Claude Desktop you even see the card render before you copy it.

Built on the Amazon Creators API - the REST API that replaced Product Advertising API 5.0 when Amazon retired the old endpoint on 15 May 2026. If your workflow still points at PA-API, it's been dead for a while now. This is the way back in.

One "make a grid of these" and you get this - styles inlined, tag in every link, disclosure at the bottom. Paste it and move on.

Who it's for

• Affiliate bloggers and niche-site owners who live in round-ups and "best X for Y" posts, and want the product embeds done in seconds instead of by hand.
• Content and SEO teams who need consistent, on-brand product cards across a lot of articles, without a developer wiring up the API each time.
• Newsletter writers on Substack, Ghost or beehiiv who just want clean HTML they can drop into an issue.
• Anyone migrating off PA-API 5.0 who needs a working replacement now that the old endpoint is gone.

You don't need to know what an API is to use it - if you can add an MCP server to Claude and paste your Associates keys once, you're set. The key bit is having an eligible Associates account.

How you'll use it

The whole thing is built around a conversation, not a form. You describe what you're writing about, Claude searches and summarises, and it only spits out HTML when you actually ask for the embed. Here's the shape of it.

1. Find products for a post

"Find me the best direct-drive racing wheels under £500"

Claude runs search_items and comes back with a plain summary - no HTML yet:
