Claude AI Image Generator

OpenArt's MCP connector turns your Claude into an AI image generator. Connect it once and make images from right within your Claude chats. It runs on GPT Image 2, Nano Banana Pro, and Seedream 5.0 Pro, using the OpenArt account you already have.

How to Set Up Claude AI Image Generator

Setting this up takes about a minute. You add OpenArt as a custom connector in Claude, sign in, and start asking for images.

Open Claude's Connector Settings
Step 01

Open Claude's Connector Settings

Open the Claude app on your desktop or go to claude.ai in your browser. Open Settings, click Connectors, then scroll to the bottom of the connector list and click Add custom connector.

Add the OpenArt Connector
Step 02

Add the OpenArt Connector

Name the connector OpenArt and paste https://mcp.openart.ai/mcp into the URL field, and you can leave the advanced settings empty. Click Add, and Claude checks the link before it saves the connector.

Sign In and Prompt It
Step 03

Sign In and Prompt It

Click Connect and sign in to OpenArt, then set permissions to Always Allow. Describe the picture, like "Make a brown-colored poster for a coffee shop, using GPT Image 2", and it is delivered in the chat.

Access All of OpenArt From Your Claude

Make Images Without Leaving Your Claude Chat

Pick the Model That Fits Your Picture

Name the model you want and Claude uses it. Ask for a poster with words on it and GPT Image 2 or Nano Banana Pro handles the text. Ask for anime or illustration and Seedream 5.0 Pro is the better fit. If you are not sure, just describe the picture and Claude picks a model for you.

Turn Your Photo Into a New Image

Turn Your Photo Into a New Image

Upload a photo in your Claude chat and say what you want changed. You can swap the background, change the lighting, or put the subject in a new place, and the person or product still looks like itself. This is the same AI image generator you use on the OpenArt website, so you get the same results.

Keep Working While It Generates

Keep Working While It Generates

OpenArt makes the picture in the background while your chat keeps going. Ask Claude your next question right away, and the finished image drops into the conversation as soon as it is ready. One thread holds the whole job, from the first idea to the final picture.

Fully Synced With Your OpenArt Library

Fully Synced With Your OpenArt Library

Every picture you make in Claude with OpenArt MCP is saved to your library, the same place the rest of your work lives. Open it on the website later, download it, or use it again as a reference picture for a new image or a video. Every image stays yours to reuse.

What You Can Make From a Claude Chat

Claude is already where a lot of work gets written and planned, so making the pictures in the same place saves you a round trip.

Agencies and Client Campaigns

Agencies and Client Campaigns

Upload a client mood board and ask Claude for campaign images in a few different looks. Every result comes back in the conversation and gets saved to your OpenArt library, so you can pull the winner up again next week when the client asks for changes.

Online Stores and Product Photos

Online Stores and Product Photos

Turn one product photo into listing images or seasonal scenes without booking a shoot. Logos, colors, and the text on the label stay readable, which matters when the picture has to match the product a buyer actually receives. One prompt covers a whole set of sizes.

Social Media and Content Teams

Social Media and Content Teams

Ask Claude for a new image at the exact shape each platform wants, then use the one you like best as the reference for the rest of the week's posts. Your feed ends up looking like one campaign instead of ten unrelated pictures, and you can build a reusable character on OpenArt to anchor the look.

Blog Banners and Article Images

Blog Banners and Article Images

You are often already drafting the post in Claude, so ask for the header image in the same chat. Describe the idea from the article, look at a couple of options, and pick the one that matches your site. You get a custom header instead of a stock photo your competitors are also running.
