# Connect Tutorial AI to your AI assistant

> Connect ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, Grok, or Gemini to Tutorial AI and ask it in plain language to work on your projects.

Section: Help Center › AI Assistants (MCP)

Connect your AI assistant to Tutorial AI and ask it, in plain language, to work on your projects: read and rewrite scripts, edit slides, translate, comment, and render or publish videos. Your assistant works as you, with the same access you have in Tutorial AI.

The connection uses **MCP** (Model Context Protocol), the standard AI assistants use to connect to other apps. You add Tutorial AI to your assistant once, approve access, and you're ready.

> 💡 **AI assistant connections are available on all paid plans.**

**Supported assistants:** ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, Grok, and Gemini.

You don't need an API key, and you never paste your Tutorial AI password into your assistant.

## Step 1: Copy your MCP URL

1. In Tutorial AI, open **Settings**.
2. Under **User Settings**, open the **Connected apps** tab.
3. Next to **MCP URL**, click the copy button. The URL is:

```
https://api.videoscripter.ai/api/mcp
```

**Connected apps** is a personal setting. Each person on your team connects their own assistant, and it only reaches what that person can reach.

## Step 2: Add Tutorial AI to your assistant

Follow the steps for your assistant. Menu names in AI assistants change often — if an option has moved, look for **Connectors**, **Custom connector**, or **MCP server** in your assistant's settings.

### ChatGPT

1. In ChatGPT on the web, open **Settings** → **Apps & Connectors**.
2. Open **Advanced settings** and turn on **Developer mode**.
3. Click **Create** to add a new connector.
4. Enter **Tutorial AI** as the name, paste your MCP URL as the **MCP server URL**, and choose **OAuth** for authentication.
5. Confirm that you trust the connector, then click **Create**. A Tutorial AI page opens — continue with Step 3.
6. To use it, start a new chat, open the **+** menu, and turn on **Tutorial AI** under Developer mode.

Custom connectors are available on ChatGPT Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise, and Education, on the web. On Business and Enterprise, a workspace admin may need to allow custom connectors first.

### Claude

1. In Claude on the web or in the desktop app, open **Settings** → **Connectors**.
2. Click **Add custom connector**.
3. Enter **Tutorial AI** as the name and paste your MCP URL as the **Remote MCP server URL**.
4. Click **Add**, then **Connect**. A Tutorial AI page opens — continue with Step 3.
5. To use it, open the tools menu in a chat and make sure **Tutorial AI** is turned on.

Custom connectors need a paid Claude plan. On Team and Enterprise plans, an organization owner adds the connector first; members then click **Connect**.

**Using Claude Code?** Run this in your terminal, then run `/mcp` inside Claude Code and choose Tutorial AI to authorize:

```
claude mcp add --transport http tutorial-ai https://api.videoscripter.ai/api/mcp
```

### Cursor

1. Open **Cursor Settings** → **Tools & MCP**.
2. Click **New MCP Server**. Cursor opens your `mcp.json` file.
3. Add Tutorial AI and save the file. If the file already lists other servers, add the `tutorial-ai` entry inside the existing `mcpServers` block.

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tutorial-ai": {
      "url": "https://api.videoscripter.ai/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

4. Back in **Tools & MCP**, click **Connect** next to **tutorial-ai**. A Tutorial AI page opens — continue with Step 3.
5. When the server shows a green dot, it's ready. Ask for Tutorial AI tasks in **Agent** mode.

### Grok

1. In Grok on the web, open **Settings** → **Connectors**.
2. Click **New connector** and choose **Custom**.
3. Enter **Tutorial AI** as the name and paste your MCP URL.
4. Save, then click **Connect**. A Tutorial AI page opens — continue with Step 3.
5. In a chat, make sure **Tutorial AI** is turned on in the connectors menu.

### Gemini

1. In Gemini on the web, open **Settings** → **Connected apps**.
2. Under **Custom apps**, click **Add a custom app**.
3. Paste your MCP URL and click **Next**. A Tutorial AI page opens — continue with Step 3.
4. Mention Tutorial AI in your request, or pick it from the apps menu, to use it in a chat.

Custom apps in Gemini are rolling out gradually and may not be available in every language or account type yet.

**Using Gemini CLI?** Run this in your terminal, then start `gemini` and run `/mcp auth tutorial-ai` to authorize:

```
gemini mcp add --transport http tutorial-ai https://api.videoscripter.ai/api/mcp
```

## Step 3: Authorize access

Your assistant opens a Tutorial AI page in your browser. Sign in to Tutorial AI if asked.

1. Check the heading: **<App name> wants to access your Tutorial AI account**.
2. Check **Signed in as**. If it shows the wrong email, sign out of Tutorial AI in this browser and start again from your assistant.
3. Review what the assistant will be able to do:

| Permission | What it covers |
|---|---|
| **View your workspaces and projects** | Access projects, scripts, slides, comments, settings and assets. |
| **View your video content** | Access narration, on-screen text, markers and source videos. |
| **Edit your projects** | Change scripts, slides, settings and voices; translate projects, add comments, generate videos and manage public access. |

The screen also lists what it **cannot** do: record or delete videos, invite users, or change billing.

4. Click **Authorize access**. Your browser returns to your assistant, and the connection is ready.

> **Only authorize connections you started yourself.** The consent screen shows the name the connecting app gives itself, so only approve requests from an assistant you set up.

- **You see this screen every time you connect.** Tutorial AI never grants access silently.
- **The link expires after about 10 minutes.** If it expires, start the connection again from your assistant.
- **Changed your mind?** Click **Cancel**. No access is granted.

## Step 4: Try it

Ask your assistant something about one of your projects:

- *Read the script of Onboarding walkthrough*
- *Summarise the narration of Onboarding walkthrough for a changelog*
- *Tighten the script of Onboarding walkthrough and show me the changes before saving*

Your assistant picks the right Tutorial AI action for each request. You don't need to know any commands.

Your new connection also appears under **Settings** → **Connected apps**, with a **New** badge for its first 24 hours. See [Manage and revoke connected apps](https://www.tutorial.ai/en/articles/manage-connected-apps).
