Instant PDF to Flipbook Conversion

Stop manually uploading files to web portals. Use `convert_pdf_to_flipbook` to turn any document into a shareable, animated publication without leaving your chat window. Your AI client handles the heavy lifting, outputting the exact URL and ID for your new project immediately. It's the fastest way to turn internal documentation into client-ready media.

Design and Branding Control

Fine-tune the look of your publications using `update_flipbook_design` to match your organization's style guide. You can modify background colors, page-turn effects, and media settings through simple text commands. This MCP Server provides the granular control you need to ensure every flipbook looks intentional. Just provide the configuration parameters, and the server applies them to your existing Heyzine assets.

Centralized Bookshelf Management

Keep your digital assets organized by adding or removing content from your collections using `add_flipbook_to_bookshelf`. You no longer need to jump between browser tabs to verify which documents are live. Query `list_bookshelf_flipbooks` to see exactly what is published right now. It is a cleaner, faster way to maintain your library directly from your workspace.
