# MakeAIVideo

> AI video generation platform. Make AI videos from a single prompt, with AI avatars, voiceovers, scenes, captions, and music, then post them to TikTok, Instagram, YouTube and 8 more platforms.

MakeAIVideo is a web-based AI video creation platform. Users describe a topic, pick a style (talking-head with an AI character, or cinematic narration over AI-generated scenes), and the platform produces a finished video including narration audio, generated visuals, captions, and music, stitched and rendered automatically. From the web app, users can then post the finished video, or schedule it, to their connected TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn, X, Threads, Pinterest, Bluesky, Telegram and Discord accounts.

## Public API

There is a public REST API and an MCP server. Both are authenticated with an
organization API key (`Authorization: Bearer mav_...`) carrying `read`, `write`
and `ai` scopes. There are no unauthenticated endpoints on the apex marketing
domain itself.

The API, MCP server and CLI use the same credits and the same balance as the
app; there is no separate API plan. Rate limits per API key: reads have no
limit; writes 120/min and 2,000/hr; AI writing 30/min and 300/hr; previews
10/min and 80/hr; renders 3/min and 30/hr. Over the limit returns 429
`rate_limited` with a Retry-After header.
