What it does
37Studio is an open-source app that makes videos for a business and runs its social accounts from your computer or your own server. It includes an MCP server with 65 tools: brands and knowledge base, campaigns, videos, generated media, publishing and autopilot, inbox, costs, settings and account connections. Videos are built by the Claude Code editor agent as animated HyperFrames compositions. A third-party agent such as Claude Code, Claude Desktop or Cursor connects to `http://localhost:8080/mcp` over Streamable HTTP. The app runs on your own keys: you pay providers directly, and the cost of each project shows in the interface.
Who it is for. Owners of small businesses and social media managers who want to run video and posts on nine platforms from one agent window.
Good fit when
- A two-hour class recording has to become a dozen short captioned videos.
- The agent drafts the week plan, three videos with approval, and schedules posts to Facebook, Instagram and YouTube.
- Customer replies in Messenger and WhatsApp must be drafted in the customer's language following brand rules.
- A monthly report of AI spend per brand is needed.
Not a fit when
- The agent must not touch payment keys and social accounts.
- No computer with 16 GB of RAM and 20 GB of free disk is available.
- Threads, Reddit or Snapchat are needed: publishing there is not supported.
Example request
Add a bakery brand from its website, plan three videos a week at 8 pm with my approval, and show this month's spend.MCP

Environment variables
STUDIO37_PASSWORDsecret- Basic auth password for the app and MCP; mandatory in the cloud setup.
Limitations
Docker, 16 GB of RAM and about 20 GB of disk are required, plus a Claude plan or an Anthropic key. Publishing does not work without your own Meta, Google, TikTok and other platform apps, because there are no built-in ones. In the cloud setup the agent runs in `bypass` mode: anyone who signs in can run commands in the container, read brand files and reach the internet. Connected agents spend your keys and post to your accounts, so connect only trusted ones. The Linux and Windows build without Docker is still a preview.
How to disable. Remove the MCP entry from the client with `claude mcp remove 37studio` and stop the container. Revoke platform tokens in the social network settings, and keep or delete the `data` folder with keys and videos separately.
FAQ
How do I connect the MCP to Claude Code?
Run `claude mcp add --transport http 37studio http://localhost:8080/mcp`. If `STUDIO37_PASSWORD` is set, add an Authorization header with basic auth.
How do I connect Claude Desktop and Cursor?
Claude Desktop needs the `mcp-remote` bridge with the server address. In Cursor a `url` entry in `.cursor/mcp.json` is enough.
What can the built-in assistant do?
It runs the studio through the same MCP and the web, with no shell or file edits, and asks before deleting, publishing, approving an Autopilot video or replying to a customer.
Where can it publish?
To nine platforms: Facebook Pages, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, LinkedIn, X, Pinterest, Bluesky and Mastodon. WhatsApp handles incoming messages only.
Does the studio pay for AI itself?
No. You pay Anthropic, Google, ElevenLabs and other providers directly, with no markup. Costs show per project, campaign and brand.
