What is the Reel MCP Server?

Turn real-estate listing photos into property videos from your AI assistant.

What you get

You sign in once through your browser (OAuth + PKCE — no API keys, no secrets), and every call is proxied through the backend's /mcp endpoint, which stays the single authority for auth, plans, and permissions. This bridge's one superpower on top of that: it can read local image files and stream them straight into a project — something a purely remote server can't do.

Configuration and credentials

  • Node.js 18+ - A Reel Estate account (a paid plan is required to create/generate/render; free accounts are read-only over the MCP) - An MCP-compatible client: Claude Code, Claude Desktop, or Cursor

More MCP options

Compare MCP servers by category, or browse hosted MCP servers if you prefer an endpoint over a local process.
