Talking-actor and faceless short videos from your AI agent, with a free quote before each render
Open-source clients for Clipwright: an API that turns a script into a short video of an actor speaking it, or a script or a short brief into a faceless video without an on-camera presenter: narration over an opening animated clip and image scenes, ending with the narration (select 30–90 seconds; it runs 25 seconds or more and up to 5 seconds past the selection). Your agent quotes the price for free, starts the render, and gets a video URL back. Clipwright returns the file; it does not publish anywhere.

Put your own key from app.clipwright.io/api-keys
in place of cw_.... It needs Node.js 20 or newer. Other hosts, the tool list and
the environment variables: packages/mcp-server/README.md.
Quotes, voices, actors and the balance are free. Renders spend credits, and an account opened by signing up starts with none: buy a pack at clipwright.io/pricing before the first render.
