HideSlop API and MCP server

Quickstart

Create a key in your dashboard, then send your first request. By default the response arrives when the file is ready, usually within seconds for images and under a minute for video. If it takes longer than four minutes you get a 202 to poll instead, so use a client timeout of at least 300 seconds. For queues and serverless callers, send "async": true to get the 202 straight away. Every removal also has a page_url: a phone-friendly page with a Save to Photos button, handy to send to whoever posts it.

curl https://hideslop.com/api/v1/remove/video \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer hs_live_your_key" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "video_url": "https://example.com/clip.mp4",
    "device": "random"
  }'

Authentication

Send your key as Authorization: Bearer hs_live_.... The X-API-Key header also works. Keys are shown once when created and stored only as a hash, so keep them in a secret manager. Revoke a key from the dashboard at any time.

Remove AI from a video

POST/api/v1/remove/video

Costs 10 credits. The source must be a publicly downloadable MP4, MOV or WebM file.

Remove AI from images

POST/api/v1/remove/images

Costs 1 credit per image, charged only for images that succeed. Send up to 20 images. Each image draws its own preset values.

curl https://hideslop.com/api/v1/remove/images \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer hs_live_your_key" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "image_urls": [
      "https://example.com/slide-1.png",
      "https://example.com/slide-2.png"
    ],
    "device": "iPhone 16 Pro Max"
  }'

Presets and devices

auto is what the studio uses by default: zoom between 1.02 and 1.08x for video and 1.01 to 1.05x for images, a few percent of color, gamma and speed variation, light grain and a weighted random phone. These values are invisible to viewers and different on every call.

Responses and errors

Successful calls return a removal. Each output has a url on hideslop.com that redirects to a short-lived signed download, and a download_url that saves it with a clean filename. Files are deleted at expires_at, 24 hours after processing, so copy anything you want to keep. Errors use a stable code field.

Other endpoints

GET/api/v1/credits

Returns { "credits": 290, "lifetime_purchased": 1250, "lifetime_spent": 960 } for the key's account.

GET/api/v1/removals/{id}

Fetches a removal you created, including its status and outputs. Statuses are processing, succeeded and failed. A failed removal carries error.message, and its credits are already refunded.

GET/api/v1/devices

Lists device profiles and credit costs. No key required.

MCP server

HideSlop speaks the Model Context Protocol over Streamable HTTP at https://hideslop.com/api/mcp. Authenticate with the same API key as a bearer token. Tools: remove_ai_video, remove_ai_images, get_removal, get_credits and list_devices.

claude mcp add --transport http hideslop https://hideslop.com/api/mcp \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer hs_live_your_key"

Then ask your agent something like "remove the AI label from this video so I can repost it: https://..." and it will call the tool and return the download link.

Limits

• Videos up to 150 MB, images up to 20 MB each, 20 images per call.
• Source URLs must be publicly reachable over http or https.
