Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect CaptionHub MCP to Pydantic AI
Create your Vinkius account to connect CaptionHub to Pydantic AI and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Type-safe video localization via MCP Server.
Stop worrying about silent API failures when your agent calls `list_projects` or `get_project_details`. Pydantic AI validates the response against strict schemas immediately. If the localization server returns unexpected fields, your Python application fails loudly and immediately. This keeps your video database clean and prevents corrupted metadata from spreading.
Strict validation for caption approvals.
The `approve_captions` tool lets you automate localization sign-offs with complete confidence. Your agent handles the approvals, ensuring the payload matches your production types. By using this MCP Server, you gain a strict layer of type safety. Your agent cannot accidentally pass invalid language codes or malformed project IDs to the server.
Programmatic video transcription pipelines.
Run your automated transcription steps via `transcribe_video` and check account limits with `get_account_info`. Every returned integer, string, and list is validated at the runtime boundary. You can use local models or commercial APIs. The underlying tool execution remains strictly typed.
