reap MCP

OfficialRemoteby reapfreemiumverified Oct 24, 2026

Hosted MCP that clips, captions, dubs, reframes, and publishes long-form footage.

What it does

reap's official remote MCP turns a finished long cut into distribution assets without a timeline: prompt-driven moment detection pulls short clips out of a video or YouTube URL, then captions them in 100+ languages, dubs them into 80+ with voice matching, and auto-reframes to 9:16 or 1:1 with face tracking. It also carries the last mile — connected-account publishing and scheduling to YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, LinkedIn and X — which makes it the delivery end of an agent pipeline rather than another generation tool.

Field notes

Endpoint, OAuth flow, the claude mcp add command and the 29-tool surface are unchanged on re-check (24 Oct 2026). The paywall has moved: the API reference no longer says the MCP needs a paid plan and now states it 'works on every Reap plan', with the Free plan including one MCP connection — processing still draws on plan credits, so free-tier agents hit the quota fast. The billing group includes top_up_media_credits and manage_subscription, which return Stripe checkout and billing-portal links; nothing charges without a human clicking, but do not let an agent surface them unprompted. Three of the 29 tools — publish_clip, schedule_clips, update_publisher_post — post publicly to connected social accounts, and the docs require the agent to confirm before running them; treat them as irreversible and gate them yourself. The marketing page at reap.video/mcp still contradicts the API reference, claiming '10 tools' in one place and '8 MCP Tools' in another, and listing export_video and translate_subtitles, which do not appear among the 29 documented tools; trust the API reference. That page also offers `npx add-mcp https://mcp.reap.video/mcp` as a shortcut, which is a third-party installer rather than reap's own — the claude mcp add form above is the direct route. There is no source repo, and clipping quality depends on reap's moment detection rather than anything you can tune.
