New to Muse?Muse is Meta's AI assistant. BudgetPixel is an app you add to it, and once it is on, you can ask Muse to do this for you: generate and upscale ai images, videos, music, and sound effects with credit-based pricing. It takes about two minutes and you can turn it off any time.

Is it safe to connect?

What Muse can see: It does not ask you to sign in, so it cannot see your accounts. It only sees what Muse sends it from your request.

Before it acts: Read what Muse plans to do before you approve it, and remove the app from Muse when you stop using it.

How to add it to Muse

Not in Muse's Connectors list yet, but Muse can still use it. Copy the request below and paste it into Muse. Muse asks before it shares anything with the app's site. Meta does not review apps used this way, so only use ones you trust. We tested this in the Muse app on September 24, 2026: Muse used an app's link directly this way and returned a live answer.

Open Muse

Not in Muse's Connectors list yet. Muse can still use it: its page gives you a request to paste into Muse.

Also use it in ChatGPT or Claude

BudgetPixel is a remote MCP server, so any assistant that can add a custom connector by link can use it. Same link, same tools.

Add it to ChatGPT
  1. 1

    Open ChatGPT settings

    In ChatGPT, open Settings, then Connectors (called Apps & Connectors on some accounts).

  2. 2

    Turn on developer mode

    Under Advanced settings, switch on Developer mode. That is what lets you add a connector by link.

  3. 3

    Create the connector

    Choose Create, give it a name, paste the link as the MCP server URL, and save. If it needs a sign-in, ChatGPT asks for it here.

  4. 4

    Use it in a chat

    Start a chat, open the tools menu, pick the connector, and ask. ChatGPT asks before it runs a tool the first time.

Custom connectors need a paid ChatGPT plan, and on Team, Enterprise and Edu accounts only an admin can add them. Our "Working" label means the server answered us; it cannot tell whether your plan lets you add it. All connectors that work in ChatGPT

Add it to Claude
  1. 1

    Open Claude settings

    In Claude, open Settings, then Connectors.

  2. 2

    Add a custom connector

    Choose Add custom connector, give it a name, and paste the link.

  3. 3

    Connect and use it

    If it needs a sign-in, Claude sends you to it. Then turn the connector on in a chat from the tools menu and ask.

Custom connectors are available on paid Claude plans; on Team and Enterprise accounts an admin may need to add them. Our "Working" label means the server answered us; it cannot tell whether your plan lets you add it. All connectors that work in Claude

Outputs are kept for about 24 hours (they are never saved to the user's asset storage unless save_to_assets is called), so row

list_charactersUse this to see the characters the user can cast in images and videos: the free BudgetPixel AI influencers (memorable personas with a consistent face, like @barry, @rosa or @fifi, free for every user) plus the user's own and collected characters. To cast one, write its @handle in

search_wardrobeUse this to find clothes to put on a character: the user's own wardrobe items, the ones they saved and the free BudgetPixel library (dresses, suits, sportswear, costumes ...). To dress a character, write both @handles in the prompt of generate_image or generate_video, e.g. "@barr
get_wardrobe_itemUse this to read one wardrobe item before using it: its description word for word (the text a mention sends with the picture), colours, tags, a download link to its picture and how to use it. Pass the id that add_wardrobe_item returned to see whether a new outfit is ready yet (an

search_posesUse this to put a character in a specific body pose (sitting with one knee up, hand on hip, a yoga stance, mid-jump ...). It searches the shared BudgetPixel pose library: every pose is drawn on two faceless grey mannequins, a woman and a man, and every pose is one a real body can

design_poseUse this when the user wants a body pose the library doesn't have (try search_poses first). Describe the pose in words, head to toe (up to 600 characters), or pass based_on with a library pose's handle and say what to change ("the left arm raised higher"). If library poses alread
check_pose_designUse this after design_pose to follow the design: pass its design_id every 20-30 seconds until the status is done, refused or failed (a design takes about 3-6 minutes). Done: the new pose's @handle, description and pictures; write "@<character> in @<new_handle>" in generate_image
make_pose_viewUse this when a pose lacks the camera angle the user wants (get_pose lists the views a pose has). It makes a view of one of the pose's mannequins from another place on the Camera Angles globe: the mannequin's front picture is turned there, a check confirms it is the same pose and
