One connection powers every channel you run
Connect each platform to ClipSpeed once, through the platform's own sign-in. From then on ChatGPT can post to any of them by name, and ClipSpeed publishes at the minute you set. Posting today: YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, X (Twitter) and LinkedIn. The badge on each platform tells you the truth about the rest.

Which way should I connect ClipSpeed to ChatGPT?
Use the first row unless you have a reason not to. Every row reaches the same account, the same calendar and the same booking rules; they differ in how you sign in and what else is in the toolset.
| Method | How you connect | Auth | Toolset | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Custom connector (this page) | Developer mode → Connectors → Create → paste the URL | OAuth sign-in | Full: scheduling, clipping, image and video generation | Most ChatGPT users |
| Codex | codex mcp add clipspeed --url https://api.clipspeed.ai/mcp | OAuth, or an API key | Full, plus codex exec for scripts | Developers and unattended runs |
| Any MCP client | Add https://api.clipspeed.ai/mcp as an HTTP MCP server | OAuth or API key | Full | Everything else |
The same server works with every other agent too: see the MCP server page and the AI agents overview.
Why use ChatGPT for social media with ClipSpeed?
ChatGPT brings the context: ChatGPT on the web. ClipSpeed brings structured tools for every platform, the booking rules that keep an account healthy, and the two things no other scheduler's agent can do: cut the clips and generate the media in the same conversation.
One connector, every chat
Saved on your ChatGPT account. Enable it in a chat and the ClipSpeed tools are there, with your connected channels listed by name.
Confirmation on every write
ChatGPT in Developer mode asks before it runs a tool that changes something. Scheduling a post is one of those, so nothing goes out on a misread.
Files and images as source
Upload a transcript, a screenshot or a brief. ChatGPT reads it, drafts the posts per platform and books the slots you approve.
Clips from inside the tool call
Submit a video or a live stream, get back captioned 9:16 clips with a viral score, and book the best ones. The clipping step is a tool, not a separate product.
Image and video generation
Generate a product shot, a quote card or a short opener with ClipSpeed's models, see the credit price first, and post the hosted result with media_url.
Rules that run on the server
Caps, spacing, exact-or-refused booking, duplicate protection and per-platform limits are enforced when ChatGPT books, so a hurried prompt cannot flood a platform or post the same thing twice.
What is ChatGPT?
ChatGPT is OpenAI's assistant on chatgpt.com and in its desktop and mobile apps. On the web it can reach outside tools through connectors, including custom connectors built on the Model Context Protocol (MCP) when Developer mode is on. With the ClipSpeed connector added, ChatGPT can clip a video, generate images and video, and schedule posts to your connected platforms, confirming each booking before it runs.

How ClipSpeed works with ChatGPT
Once connected, ChatGPT sees every ClipSpeed tool the moment the sign-in completes: channels, platform rules, posts, analytics, clipping and generation. It chains them for you; the rules below are what keeps that safe.
- ChatGPT discovers the ClipSpeed tools when the connector is enabled in a chat
- It reads each platform's rules with
platform_settingsbefore writing, so limits are met the first time schedule_postbooks an exact time or refuses with the next open slot; a taken slot is never silently movedpreview: truereturns the plan with every slot and books nothing; you confirm and it books- OAuth means ChatGPT never holds a platform password and ClipSpeed never holds your OpenAI login
How booking works, whatever the client
- Exact or refused. A time you name is booked to the minute or refused with the reason and the next open slot. ClipSpeed never moves a booked post without asking.
- As soon as possible is placed and said. Leave the time out and the reply tells you exactly where the post landed.
- Preview books nothing.
preview: trueruns the whole booking, including caps, spacing and slot choice, and writes nothing. It is how a week gets planned before it is booked. - Limits are refused at booking, never trimmed at send time. The reply carries the real count so the fix is one edit.
- Pacing protects the account. Text posts on X are at least 30 minutes apart (ten a day); LinkedIn text is an hour apart (three a day); video uploads are two to four hours apart under your plan's daily cap.
- One piece of content goes to one platform once. The same text or the same file to the same platform is recognised as a duplicate and refused.
- Cancel is undoable for 72 hours in the ClipSpeed app. Copy can be edited while a post is still scheduled; the time cannot, by design.

- Read platform_settings before composing; limits are refused, never trimmed.
- Preview a plan (preview: true) before booking; never skip the user's approval.
- A refused slot comes back with the next open one. Use it; never guess a time.
- One piece of content goes to one platform once.What Postiz-style schedulers cannot do
Cut the clips first
ChatGPT does not need finished video to start. Hand it a YouTube link, a podcast, a stream VOD or a local export. ClipSpeed finds the moments, cuts them to 9:16 with word-by-word captions, scores each one 0 to 100 for shareability, and returns them in the same conversation. ChatGPT picks by score, writes the caption from the transcript, and books the clips on YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, X (Twitter) and LinkedIn. Three tool calls, one approval, no download and no re-upload.
- Clips arrive with a title written from the hook, a transcript and a viral score, so the agent can choose and caption without watching the footage.
- Live streams can be clipped while they are still on air; the agent books the highlights for the next morning before the stream ends.
- Every clip is already hosted, so
schedule_posttakes its id directly. Nothing moves through your laptop.
submit_to_clipspeedPaste the link. ClipSpeed starts the job and returns a project id.check_clipsPoll with the project id. Back come the finished 9:16 clips with titles, transcripts, viral scores and preview links.schedule_postPass the clip id, the platforms, a caption and a time. ChatGPT shows the plan with preview: true, you say yes, it books.generate_image or generate_videoDescribe the shot. ClipSpeed runs it on the model that fits (Seedance, Kling, Veo, Nano Banana Pro, GPT Image and others) and quotes the credits first.wait_for_generationReturns the hosted result link and a preview the agent can show you.schedule_post with media_urlThe result link goes straight into the booking. The caption, the time and the file are approved together.The other half nobody else has
Generate the image or video, then post it
A product shot for Instagram, a 16:9 announcement graphic for X, a six-second opener before a clip: ChatGPT can make an image or a short video with ClipSpeed's image and video models and book the result in the same reply. There is no separate design tool, no export, no upload page. The generated file is hosted, so media_url is the only thing the booking needs.
- The price in credits is quoted before anything renders, within the per-generation and daily caps you set in Settings.
- Results are previewed in the conversation, so you approve the picture and the post at once.
- Images post as JPG, PNG or WebP up to 25 MB; video posts as MP4, MOV or WebM up to 1 GB.
ChatGPT or Codex for this?
Use ChatGPT when you want to talk through the plan and approve it in the thread. Use Codex when the posts should come from a repository (release notes, a docs folder) or run without you, because codex exec takes one prompt and exits, which is what a cron job or a release pipeline needs. Both connect to the same ClipSpeed account and see the same calendar.
What can you ask ChatGPT to do?
Anything the ClipSpeed tools expose: channels, posts, media, clips, generation and analytics. Four typical requests and what ChatGPT does with each. Copy one and change the names.
Ship a launch post
Post a two-sentence announcement about the new feature to X and LinkedIn tomorrow at 9am. X under 280 with the link counted as 23 characters.
A week from one video
Clip this YouTube link, keep the five best moments, and plan one TikTok a day at 5pm next week. Show me the plan before you book.
Generate and post
Generate a 16:9 image of a calendar made of light with the word 'Scheduled', then post it to X at noon with a one-line caption.
Check and cancel
What is scheduled for the next seven days? Cancel Thursday's Instagram Reel and leave everything else.
Which platforms can ChatGPT post to?
ClipSpeed posts today to YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, X (Twitter) and LinkedIn. Every platform below has a dedicated ChatGPT guide with the settings reference, the limits and example prompts. The badge is the truth: only a platform marked posting today can be booked.
ChatGPT and ClipSpeed: frequently asked questions
How do I connect ClipSpeed to ChatGPT?
ChatGPT connectors are URLs. Turn on Developer mode, add ClipSpeed as a custom connector, sign in, and the tools appear in any chat where the connector is enabled. In ChatGPT on the web, open Settings → Connectors → Advanced and turn on Developer mode. Back in Connectors, choose Create. Name it ClipSpeed, paste https://api.clipspeed.ai/mcp as the server URL, pick OAuth, and save. Nothing else is installed, and the same account you use in the ClipSpeed app is the one ChatGPT books into.
Do I need a paid ClipSpeed plan to schedule from ChatGPT?
Scheduling needs an active ClipSpeed plan or the $1 trial, and it is included on every paid plan at no extra cost. ChatGPT itself is billed by OpenAI under your own account. Connect during the trial, book a few posts, and the plan screen in ClipSpeed takes it from there.
Is ChatGPT the same as Codex?
No. ChatGPT: chatgpt.com and its apps, chat in plain english; confirms each write action. Codex: terminal, ide, codex.openai.com, reads your repo; codex exec runs a prompt unattended for cron and ci. All of them reach the same ClipSpeed account and the same calendar; this page covers ChatGPT.
What can ChatGPT do with ClipSpeed?
List your connected channels, read each platform's rules, write posts within those rules, schedule or preview them, edit or cancel what is scheduled, and read the numbers after a post goes out. It can also cut a video or a live stream into captioned 9:16 clips with a viral score, generate images and video, and book the results. Today that posts to YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, X (Twitter) and LinkedIn; text-only posts go to X (Twitter) and LinkedIn.
Will posts go out while I am away?
Yes. Once ChatGPT books a post, ClipSpeed holds it and publishes at the scheduled minute whether or not the chat is open. For fully unattended runs, pair ClipSpeed with a headless agent such as Claude Code or Codex.
Does ChatGPT need my social media passwords?
No. You connect each platform to ClipSpeed once through that platform's own sign-in; ClipSpeed never sees the password and ChatGPT never sees the platform at all. ChatGPT authenticates to ClipSpeed over OAuth, so no key is pasted anywhere, and it can only reach channels already connected in your account. Keep ChatGPT's confirmation step on for anything that goes live.
Which platforms can ChatGPT post to through ClipSpeed?
Today: YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, X (Twitter) and LinkedIn. Next on the rail: Facebook, Threads, Bluesky and Pinterest. 21 more platforms, from Telegram and Discord to Reddit and WordPress, are described on their pages with an honest status badge and are not bookable until that badge changes. Each platform below has its own ChatGPT guide with a settings reference and the limits that apply.
ChatGPT does not show the ClipSpeed tools. What should I check?
Confirm the connection finished: the ClipSpeed sign-in (or the API key header) has to complete before the tool list is advertised. Then start a fresh chat and make sure the ClipSpeed connector is enabled for it. If a channel is missing rather than a tool, connect the platform in ClipSpeed first and ask ChatGPT to list channels again.
Do I need Developer mode in ChatGPT?
Yes, for a custom connector. Developer mode is under Settings → Connectors → Advanced on ChatGPT's paid plans on the web. Once the connector is added there, it is available in your chats.
Why does ChatGPT ask me to confirm before scheduling?
Developer mode asks before any tool that writes. Scheduling a post is a write, so you see what will be booked, on which platforms and when, before it runs. Say preview first if you want to see a plan without even that step.
