Video Highlight MCP
Your video library, in the AI tools you already use
Video Highlight MCP connects Claude, ChatGPT and other MCP clients to the videos you have summarized. Ask a question, and your assistant answers with the exact words and a link to the second they were said.
You
What have my podcast guests said about pricing this year?
Claude
Three episodes cover it. The clearest position is Sarah Chen's: "Charge for the outcome, never for the seat" Ep. 41, Sarah Chen18:32. Marcus Hale argues the opposite, that seats are the only number a buyer can predict Ep. 38, Marcus Hale24:10, and you come back to the disagreement yourself at the top of episode 44 Ep. 44, Solo02:15.
Each citation opens the video at that second.

Questions
Do I need a Video Highlight account first?
No. Sign in with any email and a free account is created for you. It starts empty, so add a video at videohighlight.com before you ask about it.
Which email should I sign in with?
The one on your Video Highlight account. If you used a different one and your library looks empty, remove the connector in your AI app, add it again, and sign in with the right email. If you signed up with Google, pick the same Google account.
Can it summarize a new video?
No. It reads what you have already summarized. Paste the link at videohighlight.com, and the summary is available to your assistant as soon as it is ready. No reconnect needed.
Why does Claude ask before using a tool?
Claude asks before its first use of each connector tool unless you choose Always allow. Every Video Highlight tool is read-only, and each one can be switched off on its own.
Can it read my private uploads?
Yes, once you have summarized them. They stay private to your account. Uploading your own files needs a paid plan.
How do I disconnect?
Remove Video Highlight in your AI app's connector settings. To revoke the authorization on our side as well, email support@videohighlight.com.
