Show HN: Edit and Generate Videos, Audio, and Images from One MCP

Kapwing launched a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that lets Claude Web, Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cowork, and ChatGPT users upload footage, pull exports, generate and edit media, and subtitle, dub, and translate videos inside their existing Kapwing workspace. The Kapwing MCP uses OAuth authentication tied to each user's own Kapwing account rather than API keys, and every action runs on the workspace credits already included in the user's plan with no separate billing. MCP access — covering upload, latest export, subtitles, translated subtitles, and AI dubbing — is available on all Kapwing plans including free accounts, with admins able to turn MCP access on or off from workspace settings.

Connect Kapwing to Claude or ChatGPT via the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Ask your agent to upload footage, pull exports, generate and edit, or subtitle, dub, and translate videos. The MCP uses your existing Kapwing account — no extra billing.

Send your agent a file, a link, or a folder and it lands straight in your Kapwing workspace, ready to edit. Ideal for translation integrations, adding subtitles automatically, and sharing assets with your editing team.

The agent works inside your Kapwing workspace, so you can see its work, edit projects, share outputs, and manage everything from your cloud workspace — whether you're collaborating with people or with AI.

Connect to Kapwing's editing and localization tools without building or maintaining an API integration.

Available through Claude Web, Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cowork, and ChatGPT — wherever you're already talking to an agent.

OAuth authentication tied to your Kapwing account. No API keys to generate, rotate, or expose.

Every action runs on the workspace credits already included in your Kapwing plan. No separate charges, no new billing.

Free, paid, or team — if you have a Kapwing account, you can connect the MCP.

Kapwing MCP uses OAuth. Each person authenticates with their own Kapwing account. There's no shared org-level access, so your agent only ever sees the projects and exports you personally have access to.

Your agent can do whatever you could do in Kapwing directly. If you can view a project, it can retrieve it; if you can edit it, it can edit it. Admins can turn MCP access on or off from Kapwing workspace settings.

MCP access — upload, latest export, subtitles, translated subtitles, and AI dubbing — is available on all Kapwing plans, including free accounts, and runs on your existing workspace credits.

We have answers to the most common questions that our users ask.

Free, paid, or team — connect Kapwing in under a minute.
