Same prompt. Real answers.

Real data, never made up

Your AI stops guessing about YouTube. It reads real subscriber counts, real revenue, real channels — pulled live, not hallucinated.

Runs as you

Tools act on your own TubeWizz account and channels, using your credits — exactly like in the app. Nothing happens until you ask.

No API keys

Connect once with a secure OAuth sign-in. No tokens to copy, no secrets to paste. Disconnect anytime.

How to connect

  1. 1
    Add the server

    In your AI client, add a new MCP server (Claude: Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector) and paste the URL above.

  2. 2
    Sign in with TubeWizz

    Your client opens a secure OAuth window. Sign in to TubeWizz and click Allow — no API keys to copy.

  3. 3
    Just ask

    Say what you want in plain language. The assistant fills in the details, runs it on your account, and brings the result back into the chat.

FAQ

What is a YouTube MCP?

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is the open standard AI clients use to call external tools. The TubeWizz MCP server exposes our YouTube tools and data to your assistant, so Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT or Codex can run them for you inside your normal chat.

Which AI clients work?

Any MCP-compatible client. We test Claude (Desktop & web connectors), Cursor, ChatGPT and Codex. You add one server URL and sign in — the same connection works across them.

Does it cost credits?

Only the tools that generate something (thumbnails, SEO, shorts, articles…) use your TubeWizz credits — exactly like in the app. Reading your analytics and researching public channels are free and never touch credits. Nothing runs until you ask.

Do I need an API key?

No. You connect with a one-time OAuth sign-in and approve access inside TubeWizz. There are no tokens to copy or store, and you can disconnect anytime.

What can it see about my channel?

Only what you already have in TubeWizz — your brands, connected YouTube channel metrics, revenue and retention. Tools always run as you, scoped to your own account. TubeWizz never sees your AI client’s conversations.

Can I send a reference image for a thumbnail?

Yes — pass a public image URL and the thumbnail tool uses it as a style reference, then returns the finished thumbnails back into the chat (clients that render images show them inline). Pasting a local image into the AI is a client limitation, not ours — use a URL, or upload it in the app.
