Hedra MCP Server

Communityby Community (pasie15)creditsverified Aug 12, 2026

Character-3 talking-avatar video, TTS, and image generation through Hedra's API.

What it does

Node MCP server for Hedra's generation API: lip-synced character video from an image plus audio (Character-3), text-to-speech, image generation, and asset/credit management. Its README also advertises third-party models reachable through Hedra Studio, though that list dates from the server's only release and has since drifted from Hedra's own roster.

Field notes

MIT, Node 18+, and effectively frozen: npm mcp-server-hedra is still at the 1.0.0 published on 2026-02-08, the repo has had no push since the same day, and it sits at 2 stars. Still the only Hedra MCP — no official one exists. Two drifts to expect: the key page moved to hedra.com/develop/api-keys (the README's /api-profile link is stale), and where the README lists Veo 3.1, Sora 2, Kling and MiniMax, Hedra's current quickstart advertises Nano Banana Pro, Veo, Grok and Kling — Sora 2 leaves OpenAI's API on 2026-09-24 regardless. The API bills against the same Studio credit balance as the app and needs a paid subscription.
