API and MCP for developers

In short: the full documentation is at cut.pro/docs/en. Your API key lives in My Profile, in the API tab. To use Cut.Pro inside ChatGPT or Claude, add the connector https://mcp.cut.pro.

What you can do

With the API, you do in code what you do on screen: clip videos and live streams, render, download and publish to your connected accounts.

It also generates with AI: images, video, voice, music, sound effects and 3D. Music, sound effects and 3D only come through the API and MCP today.

API key

1. Open My Profile, then the API tab.
2. Under API Keys, tap New key.
3. Copy the key and keep it somewhere safe.

The key goes in the X-Api-Key header of every request.

API keys are available on the plans that include the API. The screen shows which ones.

The key spends credits and publishes to the workspace's connected accounts. Keep it on your server, never in the browser, an app or your repository.

ChatGPT and Claude (MCP)

Cut.Pro has an official MCP server. With it, the assistant clips, generates, renders and publishes for you, right in the chat.

• ChatGPT or Claude.ai: add a connector with the URL https://mcp.cut.pro. Cut.Pro opens, you sign in, pick the workspace and tap Connect. It works on any plan.
• Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor or VS Code: use the local server, with your API key.

Only the workspace owner can connect apps to it.

To disconnect an app, open My Profile, the API tab, Connected apps section.

Where the credits come from

Everything the API or the assistant does uses the credits of the key's workspace, or of the workspace picked when connecting. See how credits work.
