Turn a product photo into an ad
Upload the image in your conversation, ask for a vertical clip, and specify duration, style, and maximum cost.
AI video for ChatGPT + agents
Give ChatGPT the power to create video.
One Dora connection gives your assistant 16 models — 9 video, 7 image — sorted cheapest first. Ask in plain language, compare costs before generating, and receive the finished asset in the conversation.

No technical vocabulary required
Ask for the outcome, not the infrastructure.
Create video without learning model APIs
Your agent gets four focused tools instead of separate authentication, schemas, queues, and billing for every provider.
Control the budget in plain language
Ask for “the cheapest compatible model” or name a model. ChatGPT can inspect Dora’s model list and coin costs first.
A real agent request
One sentence becomes a priced generation plan.
You“Animate this product photo as a short vertical ad. Compare the lowest-cost options and wait for my confirmation.”
- 01 · RequirementsImage → video · short · 9:16 · prioritize cost
- 02 · Listed defaultsGrok 20 coins · SeeDance 28 coins
- 03 · SuggestGrok Imagine 1.5 · lower listed default
Example assistant reasoning. Dora’s current list_models response exposes default coin costs, not a guaranteed quote for every parameter combination. The assistant can show its proposal and call generate_video after you confirm.
Transparent examples
Coins and dollars, side by side.
These examples use the current $15 Pro price for 500 coins a week (about 2,170 a month). Higher resolution, longer duration, and audio can cost more.

Why Dora for an agent
One focused connection instead of many model APIs.
Dora packages the common video workflow into four tools. The value is not having the longest model list; it is giving an agent fewer, clearer decisions.
list_modelsLists Dora models and their starting coin cost so the assistant can compare options.
generate_videoCreates a video from text and, when supported, reference images or video.
generate_imageCreates or edits an image for storyboards, ads, thumbnails, or the first frame.
check_jobChecks an asynchronous generation and returns the finished asset when it is ready.

FAQ
AI video for ChatGPT, without the jargon.
Can ChatGPT generate AI video?
Yes. When your ChatGPT plan or workspace allows custom MCP apps with actions, connecting Dora adds video and image generation tools to the conversation. You can describe the result in normal language; you do not need to know the term MCP to use it.
What is the easiest way to add video generation to an AI agent?
Connect the agent to https://doravideo.com/mcp. Dora exposes four focused tools for discovering models, generating video or images, and checking jobs, with one account and one balance.
Does Dora automatically choose the cheapest model?
Dora lists the available models and starting costs. If you ask ChatGPT to use the cheapest compatible option, it can compare that list and show you its proposed choice before generating. Model selection follows the instructions interpreted by the connected assistant.
How much does an AI video cost with Dora?
It depends on model, duration, resolution, and audio. On the $15 Pro plan, 500 coins a week (about 2,170 a month) make 10 coins worth about $0.07. Current examples include Grok Imagine 1.5 at 10 coins for 4 seconds at 480p, SeeDance 1.5 Pro at 14 coins for the same configuration, Kling 2.6 from 55 coins, and Veo 3 Fast at 60 coins for 8 seconds.
Is Dora only an MCP?
No. Dora also works on the web and iPhone. MCP is the connection that lets compatible assistants and agents use the same generation models and shared Dora balance.
Which ChatGPT plan do I need?
ChatGPT Business, Enterprise, and Edu currently support full custom MCP actions. Pro access can be limited to read and fetch actions. Custom apps are configured on the web and a workspace administrator may need to enable them. OpenAI controls this availability and can change it.
Can I use the same connection with Claude or Cursor?
Yes. Dora uses the standard Model Context Protocol endpoint, so the same account and balance work with compatible clients including ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and Google Antigravity.
Your agent asks for a video. Dora handles the generation.
Connect the same Dora account to ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, or use it on web and iPhone.
