Generate video from Claude / ChatGPT with MCP
Video from the agent you already use
Connect https://nanobananavideo.com/mcp. Ask Claude or ChatGPT to render a clip. It spends studio credits, not a separate API SKU.
Why teams pick MCP over REST first
- No API / Build plan. REST is €59.99/mo. MCP is included with studio credits.
- Same models. Text-to-video and image-to-video through the agent (Seedance, MiniMax H3, Sora 2).
- OAuth for Claude. Custom connector + consent screen, or a
nbmcp_token from Dashboard → MCP.
