How do I use VIDEO AI ME with Grok?

Last updated: September 9, 2026

Grok connects to VIDEO AI ME through a custom connector: open grok.com/connectors, click New Connector, choose Custom, paste https://videoai.me/api/v1/mcp as the MCP server URL, and complete the sign-in to VIDEO AI ME. Grok then discovers every skill as a tool and can make UGC ads, explainers and talking-head videos, and publish them, on a Pro or Premium plan.

How do I connect Grok to VIDEO AI ME?

1.Open the connectors page
Go to grok.com/connectors while signed in to Grok. Click New Connector and choose Custom. Grok only accepts servers reachable on the public internet, which the hosted VIDEO AI ME endpoint is; there is nothing to install or tunnel.
2.Paste the server URL and sign in
Enter the MCP server URL below and continue. Grok discovers the VIDEO AI ME tools and asks you to authenticate; sign in with the account that holds your Pro or Premium subscription and approve the connection.

3.Ask Grok for a video
In any conversation, ask in plain language, for example: "List my video templates, then make a 30 second UGC ad for this product and post it to X and TikTok". Grok calls the free discovery skills first, quotes the credit cost, and confirms the platform list before publishing. For scripts and automations, API keys are created at videoai.me/developers.

What can Grok do once connected?

Every skill in the VIDEO AI ME registry: maker skills that generate UGC-style ads, product ads, explainers, and talking-head clips, publishing skills that post and schedule finished videos to your connected social accounts, free discovery skills for templates, actors, voices, and brand memory, and check_run for polling long runs. The full catalog with credit costs and typical durations is on the skill center page, and the REST API equivalent of every tool is described at https://videoai.me/api/v1/openapi.json.

What does access cost?

The API and MCP server are included with the Pro ($99/month) and Premium ($199/month) plans; there is no separate API price. Maker skills spend video credits from the plan's monthly allowance at 1 credit = 1 cent, always quoting the estimate first, and each API key can carry its own budget cap in dollars. Plans and allowances are on the pricing page.

Grok setup questions

Direct answers about connecting Grok to VIDEO AI ME.

Does Grok need a tunnel or a local process to reach VIDEO AI ME?

No. Tunnels are only needed for MCP servers running on your own machine. VIDEO AI ME is hosted at a public URL with streamable HTTP, so Grok connects to it directly, and the connection keeps working after you close your laptop or restart your browser.

What is the difference between Grok and Grok Bot for VIDEO AI ME?

Grok is the chat at grok.com, where a custom connector is added at grok.com/connectors. Grok Bot is the always-on cloud agent with its own plugin settings, where VIDEO AI ME is added as a custom connector with an API key header. Both reach the same server and the same skills; see the Grok Bot guide for its steps.

Can I limit what Grok is allowed to do with my VIDEO AI ME account?

Yes, in two places. In the Grok connector settings you can adjust which tools are exposed. On the VIDEO AI ME side, maker skills always quote their credit cost first and publishing skills always confirm the platform list, and if you switch to an API key at videoai.me/developers you can add a dollar budget cap.

Where do the videos Grok makes end up?

In your VIDEO AI ME account library, exactly like videos made in the app, with the video URL, cost and timing attached to each run. You can download them, re-edit them, or hand them back to Grok to caption, translate or publish later.

Does the Grok connector cost extra?

No. The MCP server is included with Pro and Premium subscriptions. Running maker skills spends video credits from your monthly allowance at 1 credit = 1 cent, always after a quote; discovery, publishing and status skills are free.
