X MCP Server

X Transcript MCP Server —
inside every chat.

Q: Is there a length limit?

Yes — the video must be under 2 minutes. Most video tweets fall well within that. Longer clips won’t transcribe.

Q: How do I connect it to Claude or Cursor?

Add a custom MCP connector pointing at https://mcp.transcriptmagic.com/mcp. Sign in with Google in the browser tab — the tool appears in every chat from then on.

Q: How much does it cost?

1 credit per successful transcribe_twitter call. Failed lookups don't consume credits. Free credits are included on signup.

Connect once, then ask Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or Claude Code to transcribe, summarize, or repurpose any public video tweet (under 2 minutes). The AI calls transcribe_twitter on its own.

Supported

What the tool handles.

Once connected, the AI just needs the URL — every X format below resolves automatically. No URL cleanup, no parsing, no client-side handling.

Video tweets

Public tweets containing a video at x.com/<user>/status/<id>. The AI just passes the URL through.

x.com & twitter.com

Both x.com and twitter.com /status/ links resolve to the same tweet.

Under 2 minutes

The video must be under 2 minutes. Most video tweets are well within that limit.

AI-generated

Transcripts are generated with AI, so they work even when the clip has no captions — at the cost of being slightly slower.

Prompts

Just ask.

After connecting, paste any prompt below into Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor. The AI calls transcribe_twitter on its own — no syntax to memorize, no JSON to write.

Summarize

"Summarize this video tweet in two bullets: https://x.com/<user>/status/<id>"

Repurpose

"Turn this video tweet into an X thread with the same hook."

Q&A

"Read this video tweet and tell me the main claim they make."

Quote pull

"Pull the exact quote from this video tweet so I can cite it."

Blog

"Expand this video tweet into a 400-word blog intro."

Translate

"Transcribe this video tweet and translate it to Spanish."

Setup

Use cases

What people do with it.

The tool lives wherever you already write — chat windows, IDE side panels, agent pipelines. No glue code.

Social research

Drop a viral video tweet into Claude and get the gist without rewatching the clip.

Content repurposing

Video tweet → thread, clip → blog intro, tweet → newsletter blurb — all in chat.

Accurate quoting

Pull the exact spoken words from a clip so your citation is correct.

Monitoring

Transcribe clips mentioning your brand so you can read instead of watch.

Cross-platform repurposing

Video tweet → LinkedIn post or carousel script in one prompt — same backend handles it.

Localization

Transcribe a clip, then translate it for a regional audience in the same chat.

FAQ

Questions people ask.

The short answers. For anything else, email [email protected] — same-day reply.

Does it work with x.com and twitter.com links?

Yes. Both domains resolve to the same tweet, so the AI can transcribe either form of the /status/ URL with transcribe_twitter.

Is there a length limit?

Yes — the video must be under 2 minutes. Most video tweets fall well within that. Longer clips won’t transcribe.

How do I connect it to Claude or Cursor?

Add a custom MCP connector pointing at https://mcp.transcriptmagic.com/mcp. Sign in with Google in the browser tab — the tool appears in every chat from then on.

Why is X transcription a little slower?

X transcripts are AI-generated rather than pulled from existing captions, so they can take slightly longer — but they work even when the clip has no captions.

How much does it cost?

1 credit per successful transcribe_twitter call. Failed lookups don't consume credits. Free credits are included on signup.

Should I use this or the REST API?

Use the MCP server when you're inside Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or Claude Code. Use the X REST API for batch processing and server-side automations. Same backend.
