Questions, answered

Can I use the overlays commercially?

Unchanged free overlays can be used on your own channels and accounts, including monetized posts, without credit. Client or employer work, ads, business or brand accounts beyond your own creator channel, sponsorships, customised overlays and Pro overlays need Pro’s commercial licence. Read the licence terms.

Is it free?

Yes. Every free overlay renders as it is without an account, including green-screen MP4 and transparent MOV or WebM. You can change background and format, or put it on a local video up to 60 seconds. Studio exports up to 180 seconds are free with no overlays or only free overlay configurations and Clean, Boxed or Minimal captions. Downloading edits to overlay text, look, colors, size or position, Pro configurations and expressive captions needs Pro at $9/month plus applicable tax.

What is MCP?

MCP stands for Model Context Protocol. It lets your assistant use tools from another app. Modisign supplies tools to find overlays, change their settings and render a finished file on your computer.

Does it work in ChatGPT?

Yes, in the ChatGPT desktop app’s local Work or Codex mode, and in Codex CLI. This local server does not work in chatgpt.com in the browser yet.

What does it install?

The Modisign MCP package and its rendering dependencies. You need Node 22+ and FFmpeg, including ffprobe. The first render downloads a roughly 100–120 MB browser once; Linux ARM64 uses system Chromium. English captions download a roughly 43 MB speech model once.

Is my video uploaded?

No. Rendering and compositing run on your computer. Modisign receives overlay text and settings, and Studio caption style. Your assistant provider can see the tool arguments and results, including local paths, under its own policy.

Windows and Linux?

Supported by design; macOS tested. Use the npm setup on every platform. Report problems to support@modisign.app.
