Make AI Influencer Photos in ChatGPT, Claude or Grok Bot

Connect Orior to ChatGPT, Claude or Grok Bot once, then ask for photos of your own character in plain words. Setup for each app, requests that work, and what it costs.

You can make photos of your AI character without opening Orior. Connect Orior once to the chat app you already use, then ask for what you want in your own words: put Mia in this photo, make three coffee shop shots for tomorrow, post the best one at 9. The chat app sends the request to Orior, Orior makes the image with your saved character, and the result shows up in the chat. It is also saved to your Orior Library with everything you made in the app.

The connection uses MCP, the standard way chat apps talk to outside tools. You don't need to know how it works to use it.

What you need

  • An Orior account. The Free plan works and comes with 3 credits and 1 character.
  • A character. Make one in Orior from 1 to 3 photos of a face, or pick a ready-made one. You can also send the photos in the chat and ask the assistant to create the character. A character made from your own photos costs no credits.
  • A paid plan, but only if you want the assistant to post to your social accounts. Photos and videos work on every plan.

Connect your app

Every app uses the same server address:

https://www.oriorai.com/api/mcp

The first time, you sign in with your Orior account. The connect page has a button for each app. These are the steps it walks you through.

ChatGPT

  1. Copy the server address and open ChatGPT on the web.
  2. Click +, choose Add custom MCP server and paste the address.
  3. Sign in to Orior, then type @Orior and ask.

Some ChatGPT plans and workspaces don't allow custom servers. If you can't find the option, that is usually why.

Claude

  1. On the connect page, click Open in Claude, then Add.
  2. Click Connect and sign in to Orior.
  3. Ask Claude for a photo of your character.

If no dialog opens, add a custom connector in Claude and paste the server address.

Grok Bot

  1. Send Grok Bot this message: Add a custom MCP server called Orior at https://www.oriorai.com/api/mcp
  2. Click Authorize and sign in to Orior.
  3. Type @Orior and ask for a photo.

On grok.com, add a custom connector instead and paste the same address.

Claude Code and Cursor

In Claude Code, run this once in your terminal, then type /mcp and sign in:

claude mcp add --transport http orior https://www.oriorai.com/api/mcp

In Cursor, click Add to Cursor on the connect page and sign in when Cursor asks. If you would rather use an API key than sign in, the developer docs show how.

What to ask for

Name the character, say what the photo shows and how many you want. Requests like these work:

  • "Make 3 photos of Mia having coffee at a sunny kitchen counter. Phone camera style, vertical."
  • "Here is a photo. Put Mia in it, same pose, but in a black dress."
  • "Put Mia in Lisbon, Seoul, Mexico City and Oslo, one photo each, same outfit."
  • "Make an 8 second vertical video of Mia, starting from the second photo."

Orior also adds ready-made requests. Most apps show them as prompts or slash commands:

PromptWhat it does
UGC photo setA few phone camera style photos of your character, with a product if you name one
Put my character into a photoRecreates a photo you share with your character in it
Product in handYour character holding or showing one of your saved products
Same face, new placesThe same character in several places, for a travel series
Product videoA short vertical video, with a start frame made first
New character from a presetPick a ready-made look, save it and make a first portrait
Post and scheduleThree photos and a caption, posted or scheduled once you confirm

These prompts tell the assistant to show you the credit cost and wait for your OK before a video or more than 4 images.

What it costs

Chat apps spend the same credits as the app, at twice the app price. A photo is 2 credits at 1K or 2K and 3 credits at 4K. Video prices depend on the model, the length and the resolution, and the assistant can get the exact price from Orior before it starts. Checking prices, reading your library and uploading photos are free.

When a generation fails, or you cancel one that is still waiting in the queue, the credits come back on their own. Chat apps sometimes give up on a slow answer and send the same request again. When the same request comes in again within 10 minutes, Orior returns the first one instead of charging twice.

Posting from the chat costs 1 credit per platform, and 3 for an X post with a link in the caption.

Where the apps differ

ChatGPTClaudeGrok Bot
Creation card with preview and priceYesYesNo
Sharing a photo to copyAttach it to your messageDrop it in the upload box Orior showsPaste a public link to it

The creation card shows the character, the photos and what each one is for, the prompt, the settings and the price. You can change any of it, and nothing is charged until you press Create. When the image is ready, the card lets you animate it, open it in Orior, post it or edit it.

Grok Bot has no card, so Orior asks the assistant to confirm the settings with you in the chat before it runs anything.

Posting from the chat

On a paid plan, the assistant can post for you too. It checks which accounts are connected to your character, and if one is missing it gives you a sign-in link for Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Threads or X. It can post right away or schedule a post, with one video or up to 10 images, to up to 5 platforms at once. The Post and schedule prompt shows you the photos, the caption and the time, and waits for your OK before anything goes out.

If you saw our Grok Bot content team post, this is all it is: one Orior connection that makes the photo and then posts it.

Small habits that save credits

  • Ask for one photo first. When the look is right, ask for the rest.
  • Refer to your saved character by name instead of sending face photos each time. The saved character is what keeps the face the same from photo to photo.
  • Ask for a quote before any video.
