AI images and video inside GoHighLevel — on your own server, at cost.
FreshGen Link is a self-hosted MCP connector you deploy to your own Vercel account in about five minutes. Connect your own Kie.ai key, paste one URL into Ask AI, and every image and video your GHL agent makes is billed by Kie.ai at Kie's own price — straight to your wallet. No subscription, no per-seat fee, nothing added on top.
Deploy → paste three values → paste one URL into GoHighLevel. About five minutes, no code.
What it costs
Pennies per image. About a quarter per clip.
You pay Kie.ai directly for what you generate, at their published rates. FreshGen Link adds nothing on top — the license is a one-time fee for the packaged, supported connector.
| What you're generating | Kie.ai price, billed to you |
|---|---|
| Image | $0.02 – $0.09, depending on model |
| 5-second video clip | from about $0.13 |
| 10-second video clip | about $0.25 |
| Monthly — 20 ten-second clips | about $5 |
Estimates — every generation reports its real cost when it finishes, and check_credits shows your balance any time.
How it works
Three steps. About five minutes.
-
Deploy
Click the deploy button, sign into GitHub and Vercel — both free — and paste three values: your license key, your Kie.ai API key, and a random secret you make up. The build takes about three minutes.
-
Prove it works
Open your private dashboard and hit the test-image button. If an image comes back, your Kie.ai key is wired up correctly — before you touch GoHighLevel at all.
-
Connect to GHL
In GoHighLevel: Ask AI → the + icon → Manage Connectors → + Add custom MCP. Paste your MCP URL, click Add MCP, then ask your agent for an image.
What you get
Everything your agent needs, nothing it doesn't.
- Five tools, ready to call
-
generate_image,generate_video,check_status,check_credits,list_models— your GHL AI agent can use all five right away. - Works in Ask AI and Workflows
- Ask AI for on-demand images and video, Workflow AI Agents for automations — the same URL in both.
- Auto-saves to your Media Library
- Finished images and video copy themselves into your GHL Media Library automatically, so nothing expires on you.
- All 23 Ask AI skills
-
/image,/adset,/video,/animate,/variationsand one skill per model — slash commands that teach Ask AI to use it well. - A private dashboard
- Live credit balance, a copy-URL button, a one-click test image, and connection walkthroughs.
- Twelve models
- GPT Image 2, Nano Banana Pro, Seedream 4, Imagen 4, Kling 2.1 / 2.6 / 3.0, Seedance 2, Wan 2.6, Grok Imagine, and more.
- Not sure yet? Lite is free.
- Same five-minute deploy, images on GPT Image 2 only — FreshGen Link Lite. Your Lite key swaps for a Full one whenever you're ready.
- Works outside GHL too
- It’s a standard MCP server — the same URL works in Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and other MCP clients, and finished media still lands in your GHL Media Library.
FAQ
Straight answers
Do you resell me Kie.ai credits?
No. You pay Kie.ai directly for what you generate. This product doesn't resell you credits and never touches your key — it lives in your own Vercel account.
Is Vercel's free tier enough to run this?
Vercel's free tier runs this fine, but their Hobby plan terms are non-commercial. Running it for clients means Vercel Pro, at $20/month.
Can one license cover several clients or brands?
One Full license covers one deployment, one GHL location. Running several locations? Deploy a separate copy per location, one license each — at $17 that stays simple.
Is this a general-purpose AI toolbox?
No, on purpose. Images and video only — this isn't a general-purpose AI toolbox.
Do I need to know how to code?
No. You click the deploy button, paste a few values, and copy one URL into GHL. If you can fill out a form, you can set this up.
What happens if my license key is missing?
Generation switches off. The informational tools still work, but generate_image, generate_video, and save_to_media_library return a not-activated message until you add a valid license key in Vercel and redeploy.
Pricing
One license. One deployment.
What you need
- A free GitHub account and a Vercel account — the deploy button walks you through both.
- A Kie.ai API key and a few dollars of prepaid credit — $10 covers a lot of testing.
- No coding. Click Deploy, paste your values, copy one URL into GoHighLevel.
Vercel's Hobby plan is free but non-commercial. Running this for clients means Vercel Pro, $20/month, to stay inside the terms.
Source-available license. Your server, your key, at-cost pricing. Kie.ai usage is billed by Kie.ai to your own account.
