Your favourite AI, with full control of VDClip
Open protocol
An open standard with no lock-in: it works with Claude, ChatGPT and any compatible MCP client.
Real data, no hallucination
Transcript, score and status come straight from your VDClip account, not from the model guessing.
You approve the access
OAuth connection: you decide exactly which permissions the agent gets, and never share your password.

- Opening the VDClip dashboard for every clip
- Downloading the clip and re-uploading it to schedule
- Copying the transcript by hand into your agent
- Bouncing between the chat and the app all day
- Ask in the chat and the agent calls VDClip directly
- It renders, publishes and schedules without leaving the conversation
- The agent already gets the transcript and the score
- One place to ask, review and approve

Questions about the MCP?
What usually holds up the decision, answered straight.
Still have questions? Talk to usMCP is an open standard that lets AI agents such as Claude call tools from external apps in a standard way. The VDClip MCP server exposes the platform's functions so any compatible agent can use them.
Claude and ChatGPT have an officially documented connector. Any other client that speaks the MCP protocol can also connect using VDClip's remote endpoint.
No. In Claude and ChatGPT you just search for "VDClip" and approve access in an OAuth window, like connecting any other app. No code to copy or paste.
Yes. With your social accounts connected in VDClip, the agent can publish and schedule clips using the same tools as the social scheduler.
No. With the OAuth connection you approve exactly which permissions the agent gets, and you can revoke access at any time in the VDClip dashboard. For your own automations you can also use a scoped API key.
Yes. Actions the agent runs through MCP use the same minutes and limits as your VDClip plan, with no extra charge for the protocol itself.
It depends what you need. Servers like HeyGen and VEED generate new video from text, and Submagic edits and captions a video you already have. For turning long video into short clips, the two built for it are VDClip and OpusClip.
Both cut long video into clips with a virality score and connect over OAuth. The difference is that the VDClip MCP server also publishes and schedules the clips to your connected social accounts, without you leaving the conversation with the agent.
