@Rames_Jusso @HeyGen @claudeai @GeminiApp @ManusAI Hey Thanks,
The team DM'ed me and got it up and running
English
AI agents now have access to HeyGen tools through MCP.
This means they're no longer assistants, they're operators.
With HeyGen MCP, full videos can be created inside @claudeai, @GeminiApp, @ManusAI, and more.
→ Connect once.
→ Prompt once.
→ Get fully produced videos, without leaving the agent.
Use HeyGen MCP inside your agent today.

@rayanabdulcader @HeyGen @claudeai @GeminiApp @ManusAI Right now you need to setup a custom connector following this post/guide x.com/HeyGen/status/… !
we aren't currently listed in the predefined list of connectors on Claude

Video just became native to AI agents. Today we’re launching HeyGen MCP. Now you can create HeyGen videos directly inside tools like Claude Web, Claude Code, Gemini CLI, and Cursor. Just connect your HeyGen account via OAuth and generate videos using your existing plan. We’ve put together a quick walkthrough showing how to set it up in Claude 👇

MCPS > CLIS
I know a lot of people recently have been talking about CLIs > MCPs
TBH it's nuanced, you can't install a CLI in a cloud chat agent like Claude or ChatGPT but you can install an MCP connector.
Both are needed for different use cases

Sora is dying but we are just getting started

HeyGen made Fast Company's Most Innovative Companies list for 2026. We built it for introverts. For people who hate cameras. For people who had something to say but no easy way to say it. 31 million people signed up so far. Turns out there were a lot of us.

We're working on making HeyGen's API as accessible as possible! Now you can use us through Runware if you already have an account there
Runware@runware
HeyGen Video Agent is now on Runware!📹 automate video creation at scale: - turns only one prompt into a complete fully produced video - script, visuals, pacing, avatar, voice, rendering, all handled end to end - no timeline and no editing required available via our API

@oneeyekeh This is the future of video automation. With MCPs, APIs, CLIs, and agents you can build your own complex workflows in minutes instead of days for generating high quality video content
English
Use our skills + MCP server as well and get videos like this!
All I did was say "use /heygen skills to create a video" and gave it the text from this tweet!
Replicate@replicate
Video Agent from @HeyGen is live on Replicate! Turn a text prompt into a complete, polished video with AI-generated script, avatar presenter, voiceover, visuals, and editing. Plus, create realistic talking avatar videos with HeyGen's new Avatar IV engine. Video Translate has new "speed" and "precision" modes for more accurate translation lipsync.

@coreyhainesco Glad to see you’re using HeyGen now! Let me know if there’s anything we can improve/help with!

Should I start using a beautiful AI woman for update videos? 🤔

A year or two ago internal hackathons used to be all UI and mocked data. The best demos just told a story to get the judges excited
I've been blown away by how many fully functional demos can be shipped now, especially by a strong team :)
HeyGen@HeyGen
We just ran our 10X Hackathon at HeyGen. → 106 participants → 43 teams → 40 submissions → 48 hours One mission: build something that changes the game by 10X. From engineers, marketers, designers, to sales teams, high talent density + AI fluency isn’t a slogan here. It’s how we operate. Congrats to all of the winners! We can’t wait for you to see some of the amazing submissions and winning projects come to HeyGen in the future.

@oneeyekeh Creating explainer videos has never been easier (or cheaper)
English
@sab8a @oneeyekeh our API is now pay as you go, you don't need $100 plan anymore. Can just add $5 or more to your "wallet" (balance) and we've given all API users 1080p and 30 minute duration by default pricing per second remains the same :)

I spent 10+ hours testing the world’s best lip-sync models.
VEED Fabric vs. all others.
Tested on speed, cost, quality.
See the results for yourself👇
1. Fabric 1.0 vs. Kling V2 Pro
Kling: $0.115 per sec | 139.09 sec
Fabric: $0.15 per sec (720p) | 63.04 sec
Kling is a little cheaper. Fabric is 68% faster with way better lip-sync.

@liu8in @claudeai @destraynor Coding was never the hard part of building software, and it's important now more than ever to know that

now that @claudeai can build almost any feature overnight.
saying "NO" becomes an necessity to build a great product.

I've fallen for many, so need to be constantly reminded of these 9 pitfalls:

here you go, our Agent V2 - for us introverts of the world.
To follow our Dave, I'm turning to clay-motion too :-)
will be sharing some prompts & samples videos later today!
HeyGen@HeyGen
Meet Dave. Dave is terrible at producing videos. Our new Video Agent fixes that. → See the full blueprint before anything renders. → Direct changes through conversation. → Edit every element after. Dave always had the message. Now he owns the production. Video Agent from HeyGen: for the Daves of the world.

@_claudiazhao I can't tell if I prefer the credit based model or the flat rate subscription as a consumer. It's useful to be able to super charge your usage over a weekend for a project, but it's also somewhat annoying knowing I have credits just sitting there when I'm not using it
