On-brand carousels, documents and reels, from a prompt.

Describe the piece and OpenClaw builds it from your templates: a LinkedIn carousel, a one-page document, a reel cover, already in your fonts and colors.

“Create an Instagram post template with a headline, subtitle and product image.”

Render images, video and PDFs from your data source.

Point OpenClaw at a Google Sheet, an Airtable or a list of rows and it renders one asset per record from a template you designed once: product shots, certificates, thumbnails, the lot.

“Render the launch template as a 1080×1920 story and a 1200×630 OG image.”

Post to 15+ social platforms, via OpenClaw and API.

OpenClaw posts to the accounts you have connected, holds a draft for you to read first, or schedules a whole week for the times and timezone you name. Every one of those actions is an API call too.

“Render the announcement and save it as a draft to all my connected accounts.”

“Render the certificate and email me a signed URL to download it.”

Security and data handling

Scoped by OAuth, nothing else touched.

OAuth 2.0, standards-compliant

Authorization code with PKCE and dynamic client registration, per the MCP Authorization spec. Tokens stay in your MCP client; the server does not store them.

Scoped to your workspace

Each connection accesses only the Orshot workspaces of the account that authorized it. Disconnect from your client at any time to end access.

Tool calls only

The server receives tool calls and their inputs, nothing else. It never reads your conversation, files or memory, and it only talks to Orshot's own API.

Annotated, permission-aware tools

Every tool declares read-only or write behavior, and destructive actions like delete and publish are marked so your client asks before running them.

Full details in the MCP server reference, the help center, the privacy policy and the terms of service. Questions from your security team? Write to hi@orshot.com.

Orshot turned content production from an hour-a-piece design exercise into something that runs off our existing workflow.

Consistent, on-brand, and fast enough that we actually ship daily.

FAQ

Using Orshot with OpenClaw

Plugin or skills: which should I install for Orshot?

The plugin, openclaw plugins install clawhub:orshot, is one install that registers the hosted MCP server and loads all four skills. Install the skills one by one only when you want a subset: @orshot/orshot is the main skill with the connect step, the render workflow and the gotchas that otherwise break renders (parameterId keys, page1@ prefixes, async video); @orshot/orshot-social-media-scheduler schedules and publishes posts; @orshot/orshot-carousel builds TikTok, Instagram and LinkedIn carousels; @orshot/orshot-social-media-content designs templates per platform. All of it is on ClawHub and open source at github.com/Orshot-HQ/orshot-openclaw.

Do I need an API key for Orshot in OpenClaw?

No. Add the server with --auth oauth and run openclaw mcp login orshot. Orshot supports dynamic client registration and PKCE, so OpenClaw handles the whole flow and refreshes the token on its own. An API key is only for headless scripts outside OpenClaw.

Can OpenClaw post to Instagram, LinkedIn or TikTok through Orshot?

Yes. Connect the accounts once in your Orshot dashboard, then the agent can render from a template and draft, schedule or publish the post in the same call, read analytics and pick the best time to post. Posts default to drafts until you say post.

Can OpenClaw run Orshot renders on a schedule?

Yes. OpenClaw's cron and heartbeat features call the same MCP tools, so a weekly social graphic, a daily carousel or a monthly report can render and post without a prompt each time.

Do the skills work without the MCP server?

They do over REST with an ORSHOT_API_KEY in the environment, but the MCP route is the one to use: no key to paste, inline previews of renders and templates, visual cards for social posts, and design checks when the agent creates a template.

What can OpenClaw do with Orshot once connected?

You can ask OpenClaw in plain language to render images, PDFs and video from your Orshot templates, resize one design to every social format, and publish the result to social. No image infrastructure to build.

Is the Orshot MCP server free to use?

Connecting is free. Renders draw from your Orshot plan, and every account starts with 100 free credits a month and no credit card.

What data can the Orshot MCP server access?

Only the Orshot workspaces of the account that authorized it, over OAuth 2.0 with PKCE. The server receives tool calls and their inputs, never your conversation or files, and every call goes to Orshot's own API. Disconnect from your client at any time to end access.

How are risky actions like delete or publish handled?

Every tool declares whether it reads or writes, and destructive actions carry an explicit annotation, so MCP clients ask for confirmation before running them. Read-only tools like listing templates can run without a prompt.

Can OpenClaw post to my social accounts?

Yes, once you connect that account in your Orshot dashboard. After it is connected, OpenClaw can draft, schedule or publish to it. Rendering and everything else works without connecting any social account.

Give OpenClaw your templates. 100 free credits every month to try.

No credit card. Connect the hosted MCP server, then let OpenClaw render images, PDFs and video from your Orshot templates.
