Common questions

Is Contendeo safe?

It passed 3 of 4 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed 7 months ago, and the latest version (0.1.0) reached the registry 7 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT on the web (full MCP on Business and above; Pro read-only).

What can I use instead?

Contendeo

Give your agent eyes.

Contendeo is the multimodal layer that lets your AI actually see video — not just read its transcript.

What it is

Contendeo is a remote MCP server that gives LLMs frame-level context from video — transcription, keyframe vision analysis, OCR, and structured output, unified into a single response your agent can reason over.

Paste a YouTube, Instagram Reels, Vimeo, Twitter/X, TikTok, or direct video URL into Claude (or any MCP client). Contendeo downloads, transcribes, extracts keyframes, runs OCR, analyzes visuals, and returns a structured document.

Live at [contendeo.app](https://contendeo.app). MCP endpoint at [contendeo.app/mcp/](https://contendeo.app/mcp/).

Why it exists

Transcripts capture what was said. They don't capture what was shown — chart values, UI states, overlays, code on screen, circled regions, dashboard numbers. For any video where the visual layer carries information (trading tutorials, product demos, technical walkthroughs, data dashboards, design reviews), transcript-only analysis misses half the signal.

Contendeo closes that gap.

See the side-by-side comparison at [contendeo.app/demo](https://contendeo.app/demo).

Tools

Four tools exposed over MCP. Credit costs charged per successful call. Cache hits are free.

Tool	Credits	What it does
`quick_transcribe`	1	Timestamped transcript with speaker identification. Audio-only. Fast.
`deep_analyze`	5	Full multimodal pipeline — transcript + keyframe vision + OCR, unified output.
`clip_context`	1 (quick) / 3 (deep)	Analyze a specific timestamp range without paying for the full video.
`batch_analyze`	per-video, −10% at 5+	Process up to 10 videos in parallel with cross-video synthesis.

Full schemas and response formats: docs/tools.md.

Installation

Contendeo is a remote MCP server — no local install, no package download. Connect via URL from your MCP client.

Claude Desktop

Add to your claude_desktop_config.json:

"mcpServers": { "contendeo": { "url": "https://contendeo.app/mcp/" } } }

Claude will walk you through OAuth on first use.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http contendeo https://contendeo.app/mcp/

Other MCP clients (Cursor, Continue, Cline, etc.)

Any client that supports remote MCP servers over streamable HTTP. Point it at https://contendeo.app/mcp/.

Full walkthrough with screenshots: docs/installation.md.

Authentication

Contendeo uses OAuth 2.0. First use flow:

Your MCP client initiates a connection
Browser redirect to contendeo.app sign-in (Google OAuth or email)
Approve the MCP client
Bearer token issued, client reconnects, tools become available

New accounts get 10 free credits. No card required.

Details: docs/authentication.md.
