Your AI does the work. We keep it safe and sound.

No other AI tool gives you this. Your workflow runs in the client you already love, your account stays protected, and you decide what the agent can and cannot do. It is the whole reason to make the switch.

Each Connector lives inside our infrastructure, the same place where your workflow runs. The three things below are already part of it, working quietly in the background so you never have to think about them. Nothing to add, nothing to set up, nothing to worry about.

V8 Isolate01

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed environment.

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed V8 runtime — no access to your files, your system, or other servers. A Connector never sees past its own request.

Kill Switch02

One switch stops every agent. Instantly.

One action deactivates every Connector, revokes every token, and ends every session at once. AI Governance keeps the record.

FinOps per User03

Spending limits that pause instead of surprise.

Every user keeps their own connections and credentials, isolated from everyone else. Anything that would cross your spending limit is held for your approval, not billed.

Three controls, built into the layer your AI connects through.

Put Vidyard to work on one thing.

Step-by-step automations your AI runs through this Connector: the workflow, the prompts to start with, and the exact capabilities behind each move.

One connector, every AI

Vidyard works with the most popular AI clients.

These are the most popular clients, each with a step-by-step guide: one link, set up once, with governance and visibility built in. And because everything runs on the MCP standard, the same connection also works in any other compatible client — nothing to rebuild.

Building your own app? The connector is yours to use.

You don't need a client to put Vidyard to work: the same hosted connection plugs into your own applications and agent code, with the same governance on every request. Build with it, chat with it — one connection for both.

Connect your client

One URL. Every client.

Activate the Connector, copy your link, and paste it into the client you already use. 10 capabilities arrive ready to run.

Preview access · not provider authentication

The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of Vidyard, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Vidyard. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.

FAQ

Questions Vidyard owners ask.

  • 01

    How do I connect my Vidyard account?

    You subscribe to the MCP on Vinkius and enter your Vidyard API Token. Once connected, your AI client can immediately start interacting with your library.

  • 02

    Can I download videos through this MCP?

    Yes. You can ask your agent to retrieve direct stream URLs and raw MP4 download links for various video qualities.

  • 03

    Will deleting a player delete my videos?

    No. Deleting a video player only removes the container. The original video assets remain in your Vidyard account unless you specifically choose to delete them.

  • 04

    What AI clients can I use with this?

    You can use any MCP-compatible client, including Claude, Cursor, and Windsurf.

  • 05

    Is deleting a video asset permanent?

    Yes. Using the capability to delete a video asset is an irreversible action.

  • 06

    Can I get direct download links for my videos through the agent?

    Yes. The get_video_source_files capability allows your agent to retrieve direct MP4 download links and stream URLs for different qualities (like 720p or 1080p), making it easy to share raw files or use them in other applications.

  • 07

    How do I add a video to a specific player?

    Use the attach_video_to_player capability. You'll need to provide the player_id and the video_id. Your agent can help you find these IDs by listing your players and videos first.

  • 08

    Can I create new video players through conversation?

    Absolutely. The create_empty_player capability lets you provision a new player container with a descriptive name. Once created, you can attach videos to it and manage its settings directly through your agent.
