What you can do once it's connected
Five tools become available to your AI:
transcribe_url— transcribe any public video or audio URLlist_creator_videos— list recent videos from a YouTube/TikTok/IG/Spotify profile (1 credit per 5)retry_transcript_language— re-run a previous transcript with a forced language (free)list_recent_transcripts— your recent transcript historyget_account_status— your plan and remaining credits
Try things like
- "Transcribe this YouTube video and give me three pull quotes."
- "Find Lex Fridman's last 5 episodes and summarize each in two sentences."
- "Summarize this Loom in five bullets: <URL>"
- "That last transcript looks garbled — retry as Spanish."
Common things that break
- "Connection refused" or 401. Token is wrong, expired, or revoked. Generate a new one at /account/mcp.
- Tools don't appear, no error. Restart your AI client fully. Some clients cache the tool list per-session.
- "Credit limit reached." Same monthly cap as the web product. Upgrade to Pro for unlimited, or wait for the monthly reset.
