Frequently Asked Questions
MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an open standard that lets AI agents use external tools. Once connected, your agent can call OpenArt to generate images and video — and return the results directly in your conversation.
Go to Settings → Apps & Connectors → Advanced, enable Developer Mode, then create a connector named OpenArt with the server URL and authorize via OAuth. In the chat, type @ and select OpenArt to enable it, skipping this causes ChatGPT to generate images on its own instead of using the connector. Then ask ChatGPT to generate an image; to use a reference image, paste an image URL in your prompt.
No. Add the server URL in your agent's settings and sign in with your OpenArt account through OAuth. There are no keys to create, rotate, or leak.
Generate images and video, discover available models, track results, upload reference files, check your account and credits, switch workspaces, and organize projects, all from the conversation. The tool list updates automatically as new tools ship.
Image models include Nano Banana 2, Nano Banana Pro, GPT Image 2, Seedream 4.5, and Seedream 5 Lite. Video models include Kling 3 Omni, Grok Imagine 1.5, Seedance 2.0, Seedance 2.0 Fast, Wan 2.7, and PixVerse V6. Your agent can pick a model automatically or use one you name, and new models appear automatically as OpenArt adds them.
Yes. On managed workspaces (Claude Team/Enterprise or ChatGPT Business/Enterprise), an Owner or admin adds the OpenArt connector for the organization first. In Claude, use Settings → Organization settings → Connectors → Add and enter the server URL https://mcp.openart.ai/mcp. In ChatGPT, that means enabling developer mode and creating the connector. This only needs to be done once, after it's added, OpenArt becomes available to everyone on the plan, and each member simply signs in with their own OpenArt account via OAuth. On personal paid plans (Claude Pro/Max, ChatGPT Plus/Pro) you can add it yourself. Once connected, generations spend the workspace's credits and results save to the workspace library so your team can pick up where you left off.
Image generation, video creation, image-to-video, external image references, and your OpenArt library are all available today. Character and Smart Shot are on the roadmap.
In Claude (web, desktop, or mobile), go to Settings → Connectors, click Add custom connector, name it OpenArt, and paste the server URL. Click Connect, sign in with your OpenArt account, and ask Claude to generate an image.
Yes. In Cursor, open Settings → MCP & Integrations → New MCP server, add OpenArt to mcp.json with the server URL, then click the login prompt and approve in your browser. OpenArt tools then show up in Agent chats.
Generations through MCP spend the same credits as if you're generating on openart.ai. Each generation costs credits based on the model and resolution, and your existing plan works without any extra setup.
Everything your agent creates is returned in the conversation and saved to your OpenArt library, so you can keep iterating on openart.ai whenever you want a full canvas.
Yes. In Claude, OpenArt provides an upload widget so you can upload an image to
OpenArt right inside the conversation and use it as a reference; you can also
paste an image URL. Pasting an image URL works in any client that supports it.
OpenArt right inside the conversation and use it as a reference; you can also
paste an image URL. Pasting an image URL works in any client that supports it.
It lets you browse, reuse, and create assets inside the active OpenArt workspace instead of treating every generation as a disconnected file. For teams, it also helps route work to projects and keep credit usage tied to the right workspace.
Just mention OpenArt in your prompt so your agent knows where to route the request. For example: "Use OpenArt to generate a 5-second product video" or "With OpenArt, create 4 image variations of this concept." This keeps the agent from guessing and makes results more predictable. Once OpenArt becomes your go-to for image and video, you can drop the name entirely.
