Drive CourseSmith from your own tools — or from an AI assistant.

Create courses and lessons, generate lectures, edit storyboards and render videos through the public API with an API key — from your CI, your LMS or a script. An MCP server from our public examples repo wraps the same API, so Claude, Cursor or VS Code can drive it conversationally. The developer API is part of the Studio and Enterprise plans.

What it does

The detail that makes it work.

Same pipeline as the app

The public API calls the internal handlers; there is no second, lesser path.

An MCP server for the API

Seventeen tools over your API key — create a lesson, ground it in a source, generate the lecture, edit a scene, render the video.

Documented live

The reference parses the live OpenAPI spec, so it never drifts from the deployed API.

Pairs well with these.

Review links & commentsShare a read-only review link — no login for reviewers — and see their time-anchored comments on your timeline.Vertical, square, GIF & stillsTurn the finished lecture into 9:16 Shorts, 1:1 feed cuts, GIFs and stills — per chapter if you like.Brand kitStore the brand once; watermark clips, brand the caption track, drop a branded lower third, and colour every vertical cut.Translate captionsTranslate a caption track sentence by sentence and redistribute the words over the original timing — right-to-left languages included.Study materials from every lessonA quiz, a simulator, flashcards, an interactive lesson, a step walkthrough, a live presentation, a PowerPoint deck and a handout — each written from the lesson.Quiz generatorGenerate a quiz from the lecture and ship it as a single-file HTML player, SCORM 1.2 / 2004, cmi5, xAPI, QTI, printable sheets and more.Interactive simulationsInteractive explainers generated for a lesson — simulators, step-by-step walkthroughs and flashcards that run anywhere, SCORM included.PPTX decks & lesson hubExport a themed PowerPoint deck with the rendered scenes embedded, and give every lesson a hub page with runtime, video, quiz and downloads.Course trailerA supercut trailer assembled from the course’s rendered scenes, with its own voice and music.YouTube titles & descriptionsGenerate titles, descriptions and chapter lists from the script, so the listing matches what the video teaches.Interactive course or lessonShare a course or one lesson as a web page that pauses inside the video for questions, scores first tries and saves each learner’s progress.

Build a course with public api & mcp server.

It’s one part of a tool that carries your source all the way to a polished, finished video.
