Common questions
Is clipsilo a Frame.io replacement?
clipsilo is not a direct Frame.io replacement — it solves a different problem. Frame.io focuses on video review and feedback. clipsilo is an API-first content warehouse for structured asset management, approval workflows, and AI/MCP access. If you need programmatic asset control and agent access rather than video proofing, clipsilo is the better fit.
Does Frame.io have an MCP server?
Frame.io does not offer a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. clipsilo ships with a built-in MCP server, allowing AI agents like Claude to search, retrieve, and reference your approved assets directly from a conversation.
Which is better for agencies?
If you primarily do video review with clients, Frame.io is purpose-built for that. If you manage mixed-media asset libraries, need API access, or want AI agents to work with your content, clipsilo is the stronger choice — and at $10/month vs. $15+/seat, it is significantly more affordable for teams.
