Faster Starts for Builders: New API Docs and MCP Server

We just launched a major upgrade to D-ID’s API documentation, with one goal: help builders ship faster from first request to production-ready integrations.

A code snippet shows how to import, connect, chat with, and disconnect an agent using a client SDK in JavaScript.

The biggest unlock: D-ID is now MCP-ready

We’ve added a MCP server, so MCP-compatible tools can pull the right D-ID context while you build: docs, integration guidance, and API capabilities, without tab-hopping.

This fits naturally into the workflows developers are adopting in Cursor, Windsurf, or GitHub CoPilot and ClaudeCode, where MCP is becoming the standard way to connect AI tooling to real systems.

Quickstarts to help you build faster

Our new Quickstarts are designed around time-to-first-success: pick a track (Realtime vs Videos) and follow 2–6 simple steps to get something working quickly.A dashboard displays five feature cards: Agents, Agent Sessions, Knowledge, LLMs, and Chat Exports, each with a brief description of its functionality.Examples include:

  • Agents (create a visual AI agent in a single flow)

  • Agent Sessions (real-time video conversations via SDK + WebRTC handling)

  • Video Translate (translate with lip-sync + voice cloning)

  • Knowledge (RAG) and Chat Exports for production-grade agent workflows

A cleaner, more professional developer hub

Better structure, clearer starting points, and faster discovery—so the “how do I…?” moments don’t derail your build.

Ask AI inside the API reference

When you’re in an endpoint page and just need an answer, the docs include an Ask AI option right in the reference experience.
