Catenoid, a South Korean video-technology-as-a-service (VTaaS) company led by CEO Kim Hyung-seok, has officially launched Callus MCP, a tool for managing and developing video services through conversations with generative AI. The company says it has also passed quality and security reviews by Anthropic and OpenAI and is now listed in the official directories of Claude and ChatGPT.

Callus MCP is built on the Model Context Protocol (MCP), an open standard that lets AI models access data and functions in external services. Users do not need to enter server addresses or security keys. They search for Callus in the Claude or ChatGPT directory, sign in with their account and connect at once. They can then handle tasks such as video service integration and viewing statistics in natural language.

What it can do

The scope covers both daily operations and development. Asked in the chat window, the AI can list videos uploaded in a given period, find the most-watched titles or report daily traffic volume, drawing on the data stored in the account. It can also generate player embed code, analyze the causes of error codes and walk users through integration guides. It also works with AI development tools including Claude Code and Cursor.

In Catenoid's own tests, an improved way of referencing integration documents cut AI token usage by about 53% for the same task and reduced tool calls from 11 to 5.

Security design

The service uses the OAuth 2.1 authentication standard. Users connect by logging in rather than typing an API key into the AI, and credentials are stored encrypted on the server. The connection is released automatically after a week without use. The tool only offers read access to video lists and statistics, and blocks deleting videos or changing settings, which removes the risk of the AI damaging data.

The company plans to seek registration in the official MCP registry to broaden the range of supported tools. Kim said Callus MCP is meant to lower technical barriers in running and developing video services through AI, and that Catenoid will keep expanding AI-based integrations so enterprise customers can run their video infrastructure efficiently.
