Use bitHuman in Claude
Add bitHuman characters to Claude for talking clips and live voice chats.
Add bitHuman to Claude as a connector and its AI characters speak in your chat: ask one to say a line and a short video clip plays, or open a live voice conversation with it. You don’t need a bitHuman account. The short version, with a QR code for your phone, is at bithuman.ai/mcp.
What you’ll build
A Claude chat (web, desktop or mobile) where you can:
- see bitHuman’s characters, with a picture of each
- have one say your exact words (3 to 200 characters, about 15 seconds) as a video clip you can download or share
- talk to one live, by voice, for up to a minute
Steps
3 steps
Add the connector
- On claude.ai, open Settings → Connectors and choose Add custom connector.
- Name:
bitHuman. URL:https://mcp.bithuman.ai/mcp. Leave the sign-in fields empty, then Add.
The connector then works in Claude on the web, the desktop app and the mobile apps.
Expected
bitHuman is listed under Settings → Connectors.
Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http bithuman https://mcp.bithuman.ai/mcpThe same command with a copy button: bithuman.ai/mcp, Claude Code tab.
Expected

In a new chat, ask:
- “Show me the bitHuman characters.”
- “Make Gio say: Welcome to the team, everyone!”
- “Have Wise Pup explain photosynthesis in one sentence.”
- “Let me talk to Pip live.”
Expected
A row of character cards appears in the chat; asking for a line plays a short clip of that character saying it.
All steps done. Next: make it your own.
How it works
Claude writes the words; bitHuman voices them and animates the character on its own servers, then the clip plays in the chat. A live conversation runs inside the chat, with Open in a new tab as a fallback. Each person can make 10 new clips a day, and asking for the same line again replays it. Clips are kept for 7 days. What is stored, and for how long: bitHuman in ChatGPT and Claude.
Make it your own
The connector speaks only as bitHuman’s own characters. To use your own avatar or voice, create an agent and add the CLI’s MCP server to Claude Code or Claude Desktop instead.
Troubleshooting
| Symptom | Fix |
|---|---|
| Claude doesn’t use bitHuman | name it in the prompt (“bitHuman characters”), and check the connector is on for the chat |
| New features or characters don’t show after an update | Claude keeps the old version: Settings → Connectors → bitHuman → Disconnect, then Connect |
| The live call shows a black screen | choose Open in a new tab |
| ”Daily limit reached” | 10 new clips per person per day; a line you already made replays |
