Make AI avatar videos, translate videos and work with voices in HeyGen from Claude.

Officialby HeyGenHosted, nothing to installChecked October 18, 2026

HeyGen's hosted MCP server lets Claude script and render avatar videos, either through HeyGen's Video Agent from a single prompt or by picking an avatar, voice and script yourself. It also covers video translation with lip-sync, voice cloning and design, templates, AI clipping and batch jobs, all billed to your HeyGen plan credits.

Who it is for

  • Marketing and social media teams
  • Course creators and trainers
  • Sales teams sending personalized videos
