Every competitor is a destination app you leave your work to visit. Storyboard is an MCP server — your agent calls it as a tool, in the middle of doing something else, and gets a finished, text-legible, reproducible asset back. No app, no human in the loop. This is the one thing no destination video tool can offer.
Add one entry to any MCP client (Claude Desktop, the CLI, your own agent):
{ "mcpServers": { "storyboard": {
"type": "http", "url": "https://storyboard.daydream.monster/api/mcp",
"headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer sk_…" } } } }
Now, mid-workflow, your agent can:
// discover, generate, finish — as ordinary tool calls list_capabilities() // 105+ models, live create_media({ action:"generate", prompt:"…", max_cost_usd:0.10 }) generate_project({ title, scenes:[…], aspect_ratio:"9:16" }) create_media({ model_override:"hyperframes-render", html, background_video_url }) // legible text over video create_media({ model_override:"ffmpeg-concat", … }) // finish to one MP4 get_cost_report({ … }) // programmatic spend visibility
max_cost_usd + get_cost_reportA coding/research agent that needs a diagram, hero image, or explainer clip as a step — not a detour to a web app.
Cron / CI / queue rendering N branded assets per run, with max_cost_usd caps + idempotency.
A support/marketing bot turning a doc or data row into a shareable reel, inline.
One agent plans, another renders — the renderer is just a tool surface.
max_cost_usd refuses over-budget calls before they run; get_cost_report for accounting.idempotency_key makes at-least-once delivery / retries safe — no double-spend.ffmpeg-* / hyperframes-render return a delivered asset, not a punch-list of clip URLs.
