Map Animation Studio

Claude integration

Make map videos by chatting with Claude.

Connect Map Animation Studio to Claude once. Then describe a video in plain words, and Claude builds the project in your account, ready to preview and edit.

Before you start

Open in Claude’s directory

Server address

https://api.mapanimationstudio.com/mcp/map-studio

To add it by hand instead, choose Add custom connector in Claude’s Connectors and paste this address.

Open the MCP page

  • A Claude account

    Map Animation Studio is in Claude’s connector directory, so there is nothing to install or paste.

  • On Team or Enterprise

    Your organization’s owner may need to allow the connector first. Everyone then connects their own account.

  • A Map Animation Studio account

    Every plan includes a daily allowance of requests from your assistant.

Connect Claude and make your first video

Connecting takes about a minute, and you see every permission before you allow it.

  1. Find Map Animation Studio in Claude

    Open Map Animation Studio in Claude’s directory. Or, in Claude, go to Settings → Connectors, search for Map Animation Studio and open it.

  2. Choose Connect

    Choose Connect. There is no address to copy: Claude already knows where the server is.

  3. Allow access

    Map Animation Studio opens. Sign in if asked, check what Claude will be able to do and choose Allow. The connector then shows as connected.

  4. Turn it on in a chat

    Start a new chat, choose + → Connectors and switch on Map Animation Studio.

  5. Ask for a video

    Describe the video you want. When Claude asks to use a Map Animation Studio tool, choose Allow always. The project appears in your account, ready to preview and edit.

  6. Change it scene by scene

    Keep talking. Ask for a slower camera, another colour or a new scene, and Claude changes only that part of the project. Everything stays editable in the studio too.

Ideas for your first request

Write the way you would to a person. Claude creates projects, adds scenes and changes them in your account, and you can keep editing in the studio.

  • Make a 20-second video that flies from Istanbul to Tokyo.
  • Show Norway, Sweden and Finland in separate scenes, each in its own colour.
  • In my latest project, make the camera move more slowly.
