Overview
What Zooq is
A LinkedIn-data API and first-party MCP server for AI agents. No login, no cookie, no browser automation, so no account gets flagged. Public profile, company, and post data as clean JSON.
Why it exists
After Proxycurl shut down, agent builders needed a clean LinkedIn JSON source that doesn't require anyone's account cookie. Zooq wraps the full REST catalog as credit-billed MCP tools any client can call: Claude Desktop, Cursor, Codex, Windsurf, and more.
