About this tool
MCP, Model Context Protocol, is a standard that lets an AI assistant call a service's tools directly instead of a person operating an app on its behalf. VocalLab's hosted MCP server exposes the same core actions as the API — listing voices, using a saved clone or designed voice, and generating speech from text — so an assistant can turn a request like narrating a script in a cloned voice into finished audio without anyone opening the product. The server is hosted at https://mcp.vocallab.ai/mcp: add that URL and your API key to Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code or a ChatGPT connector, and the assistant gets 12 voice tools, including speech generation in 200+ languages, voice cloning, voice design and SRT captions. It's available on every plan, Free included, under the same rate limits as the API: 60 requests per minute, 120 on Max. Setup for each client is on the MCP docs page at vocallab.ai/developers/mcp.

https://mcp.vocallab.ai/mcp. It uses the Streamable HTTP transport and takes your API key as an Authorization: Bearer header, or as ?key= on the URL for clients that can't send headers. Step-by-step setup is at vocallab.ai/developers/mcp.
A standard that lets an AI assistant call a service's tools directly — in this case, listing voices, using a clone, or generating speech — instead of a person operating the app.
Every plan, Free included. A Free account can connect an assistant and spend its 60 points through MCP.
No — MCP and API access are both included on every plan and share the same rate limits; there's no separate charge just for using MCP instead of calling the API directly.
List available voices, use a saved clone or designed voice, and generate speech from text — the same core actions available through the API.
