Can ChatGPT generate videos? Yes, with one connector.

Seedance 2 team · Updated

ChatGPT does not output video files on any plan. Add Seedance 2 as a custom connector (https://www.seedance2.net/mcp) and ChatGPT generates Seedance 2.5 and Seedance 2.0 videos, plus Veo, Kling, Wan and MiniMax clips and AI images, on your Seedance 2 account, and shows the result in the chat.

Three steps

  1. In ChatGPT settings, create a custom connector named Seedance 2 with the URL https://www.seedance2.net/mcp. Where the menu sits depends on your plan; screens for each are on https://www.seedance2.net/plugin.
  2. Sign in with your Seedance 2 account and approve the connection. New accounts get free credits, no card needed.
  3. In a new chat, turn the Seedance 2 connector on and ask for a video, naming the Seedance model you want.

What happens when you ask

  1. The assistant calls list_models and tells you the credit price of the settings it picked.
  2. It calls generate_video, which returns a task id right away.
  3. It polls get_task until the video is done, usually one to several minutes, and gives you the file.
  4. If a generation fails, its credits are refunded automatically.
