FAQ

Frequently asked questions
about JSON2Video

What is JSON2Video?
JSON2Video is a video editing API that lets developers, marketers and AI agents create professional videos programmatically by sending a JSON specification to a REST endpoint. It handles rendering, AI voice-overs, subtitles, transitions and AI-generated visuals automatically — so you can scale video production from one video to thousands without manual editing. It is used by 70,000+ creators and businesses, integrates with Make.com, n8n and Zapier, and offers an MCP server for AI agents like Claude Code and Codex.
How do I convert JSON to video?
To convert JSON to video with JSON2Video, you write a JSON file describing your scenes, elements (text, images, videos, voice-overs) and timing, then send it to the POST /movies endpoint of the API. The video is rendered on our cloud infrastructure and returned as an MP4 within seconds. You can use the visual editor to design templates first, then convert them to JSON and populate placeholders programmatically. See the documentation for the full schema reference.
What is a video API?
A video API is a programming interface that lets applications create, edit, render or process videos automatically without manual editing software. JSON2Video is a video API specifically focused on video editing and generation: developers send a JSON specification describing scenes, text, images, voice-overs and effects, and the API returns a finished MP4. Other types of video APIs cover hosting (Vimeo, YouTube), streaming (AWS IVS), or transcoding (AWS Elastic Transcoder). Read more in our guide to video APIs.
Can I create videos with AI agents like Claude Code?
Yes. JSON2Video provides an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that AI agents like Claude Code, Codex and other MCP-compatible agents can use to generate videos directly from natural language prompts. Install it once with npx @json2video/mcp and your agent can create scripted videos, generate AI voice-overs and produce final MP4 renders without writing code. The agent handles scene composition, asset orchestration and quality settings automatically based on your prompt.
Does JSON2Video work with Make.com, n8n and Zapier?
Yes. JSON2Video has native Make.com, n8n and Zapier integrations that let you connect video generation to any other tool in your stack — CRMs, spreadsheets, RSS feeds, AI services or social media. You can build fully automated workflows that trigger video creation from any event: a new product in Shopify, a news article published, a form submission or a scheduled cron. Browse our no-code tutorials for step-by-step recipes.
What video formats and resolutions does JSON2Video support?
JSON2Video outputs MP4 at resolutions from low quality up to Full HD (1080p) and 4K. You can output in any aspect ratio — landscape (16:9), portrait (9:16) for TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts, or square (1:1) for Instagram and Facebook posts. Custom dimensions are also supported. Frame rate, bitrate and quality settings are all configurable per render via the JSON quality and resolution properties.
How much does JSON2Video cost?
JSON2Video offers a free plan with 600 credits to get started, paid plans starting at $49.95/month, and an Enterprise plan for high-volume use cases. Pricing is based on video minutes rendered, with each plan including a monthly credit allowance and pay-as-you-go top-ups available. AI features (voice-overs, image generation) are included in every plan. See the pricing page for full details and a credits calculator.
Is there a free plan or free API key?
Yes. JSON2Video has a free plan that includes 600 credits (~10 minutes of video rendering) and a free API key — no credit card required to get started. You can get your free API key and start rendering videos immediately. Free-plan videos include a small JSON2Video watermark; paid plans remove it. ElevenLabs voices, Azure voices and Flux Schnell image generation are included free in every plan, including the free tier.
