AwesomeVideo
Hosted captioning MCP: transcribe, translate and burn styled subtitles, returning MP4 plus SRT, VTT and JSON.
https://api.awesomevideoeditor.com/mcp/oauth
Caveats
- No terms of service or privacy policy on the site, and no named operator, so think twice before sending it client footage.
- The free trial is 10 welcome credits, about two minutes of captions, behind a proof-of-work and a daily per-network slot.
- Machine-grade stack: Whisper large-v3-turbo, m2m100 translation and MeloTTS or WaveNet dub voices, with no voice cloning or lip sync.
- Paid calls fetch links up to 80 MB; larger files go through import_url or multipart upload (2 GB, 3 hours). YouTube links are refused.
What it does
One caption_video call takes a public link or uploaded file, runs Whisper transcription, optional translation and a server-side burn, and hands back the captioned MP4 with SRT, VTT and a word-timed JSON transcript. Around that sit the pieces a deliverables pass needs: transcript correction before the burn, a no-login review link for a producer to approve the text, translation that keeps cue timing, basic dubbing, silence and filler cuts, and 9:16 clips. Every paid tool has a free estimate path and a maxCredits cap, so an agent can price a whole batch before it spends.

Full curator notes (verified Nov 7, 2026)
Checked 7 Nov 2026: an anonymous initialize on https://api.awesomevideoeditor.com/mcp answered as awesomevideo 0.5.0 (protocol 2025-06-18) and tools/list returned 27 tools; /mcp/oauth answers 401 with protected-resource metadata, and the authorization server advertises dynamic client registration and PKCE S256. Without a key only create_key, estimate and get_catalog work; everything else needs a bearer key or the OAuth route. No tool was called. Prices from the pricing and facts pages: transcription 1 credit a minute, server burn 4, translation 2, dubbing 5 (basic) or 12 (standard) per source minute per language, preview 1 flat; packs are $5 for 500, $20 for 2,200 and $50 for 6,000 credits and never expire; plans are $9, $29 and $99 a month. Failed jobs are refunded and a short balance returns 402 with a checkout link rather than a charge. There are no terms of service or privacy policy anywhere on the site (/terms, /privacy and /legal all 404), no named company, and request_review links open without a login for up to 7 days. The domain dates from December 2024, but the MCP Registry entry (com.awesomevideoeditor/awesomevideo, now 0.5.1, one release ahead of what the server reports) was first published on 31 Oct 2026. The GitHub repo is a README and one ClawHub skill under a personal account (vhmartinezm) with no licence; it is not the server source, and the vendor site does not link to it. Vendor pages disagree on batch size (10 or 50 files) and clip counts (1-5 or up to 10), so trust estimate over the prose. For captions inside an editor, Kapwing and Reap are the editor-backed alternatives; for transcript text alone, Deepgram.
