A tool that reads what's inside your files
OCR reads text inside PDFs, scans, and images. Ask for "the contract with the 2027 pricing table" and it finds the words, not just the filename. Kinda cool, isn't it?
Find any asset in your Pics.io library by just asking
With Pics.io MCP, your AI assistant (Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini) can find any asset in seconds. All you have to do is describe what you need in plain English. No need to set filters or remember filenames. And with read-only access, there's no risk of unrequested changes. It's a win-win.
No credit card required.

What you'll get
Find assets by what's inside them, not just the filename
It searches inside your videos, too
Yes, it gets even better. Every video and audio file gets transcribed automatically. Ask for "the part where the CEO mentions Q3" and it takes you straight there. No more manual scrubbing through hours of footage on 2x speed.
And understands plain language
Talk to it like you'd talk to a teammate. Describe what you need in plain English, and it will point you to the closest matches with metadata right in the chat. Even a library with hundreds of thousands of assets narrows down fast.

Frequently asked questions
Can it change or delete my files?
No. Pics.io MCP is read-only, meaning it can only search and view your files. It can't upload, edit, move, delete, or share anything.
Does it respect my existing permissions?
Yes. It uses the same access rights you already have in Pics.io. Assistants only see what you're already allowed to see.
Do I need to install anything?
No. Pics.io runs a remote MCP server, so there's nothing to install or host locally. Just connect and sign in.
Which AI assistant does it work with?
Pics.io MCP works with Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, and other AI tools as long as you have the respective API key. For more information and installation guidelines, check out our Help Page.
Does Pics.io MCP cost extra?
No. It's included in your Pics.io subscription and isn't a separate paid add-on.
