Create and update your banners from Claude or Cursor

Bannerly runs an MCP server, so your AI assistant can draft, preview, save, update and schedule your LinkedIn, X and Facebook banners for you. It uses the same proposals and layouts as the web app, and never invents figures, clients or results.

What you can ask

  • “Make me a LinkedIn banner for my no-code automation offer for B2B service SMBs, and show me a preview.”
  • “Update my saved banner’s headline to say I’m available from November, and keep the same layout.”
  • “Add my Stripe MRR to my X banner and refresh it every 12 hours until the end of the year.”
  • “List my last generations and show me the latest one.”

How it works

  1. 1

    Go Pro

    AI tools are part of the Pro plan, monthly or lifetime.

  2. 2

    Create a personal API key

    On your Account page, under “AI tools (MCP)”. The key is shown once — copy it then.

  3. 3

    Add Bannerly to your assistant

    Paste one of the setups below, then ask for a banner in plain language.

Setup

Replace bnly_your_key with your key. Your Account page shows these setups with your real key filled in.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http bannerly https://api.bannerly.me/api/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer bnly_your_key"

Claude Desktop (claude_desktop_config.json)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bannerly": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://api.bannerly.me/api/mcp",
        "--header",
        "Authorization:${BANNERLY_AUTH}"
      ],
      "env": {
        "BANNERLY_AUTH": "Bearer bnly_your_key"
      }
    }
  }
}

Cursor (~/.cursor/mcp.json)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bannerly": {
      "url": "https://api.bannerly.me/api/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer bnly_your_key"
      }
    }
  }
}

What your assistant can do

  • Discover & preview

    List the networks and sizes, get layout suggestions, and preview a banner image without saving anything.

  • Create & edit

    Save a banner with the best-fitting layout, edit its text or colors, switch layout, or toggle its watermark.

  • Generate & history

    Render saved banners to PNG and browse your past generations.

  • Live data & schedules

    Bind metrics from your connected accounts, sync them, and create, pause or run refresh schedules.

Security & limits

  • Keys are stored hashed and can be revoked at any time from your Account page (up to 10 active keys).
  • Your Pro plan is checked on every request — if it ends, your keys stop working.
  • Up to 300 requests per 15 minutes per key.
  • Connecting a new Stripe, X, LinkedIn or Instagram account is done in the web app; deleting banners isn’t available through AI tools yet.
  • Watermark rules are the same as in the web app.
