Questions and problems

Email support@studiospend.com. In the app, Settings → Help & feedback sends us a note with the app details you choose to include.

Installing on Windows

StudioSpend for Windows is a 64-bit, code-signed installer for Windows 11. Windows often says “Windows protected your PC” about a download it hasn’t seen many times. Choose More info, then Run anyway. After the first run, StudioSpend lives in the system tray, near the clock.

Use StudioSpend in the ChatGPT desktop app

The ChatGPT desktop app on a Mac can ask StudioSpend what you pay for, what is left and which of your plans covers something, and it draws the same answer cards Claude does. Everything stays read-only. ChatGPT on the web and on a phone can’t reach StudioSpend yet. It takes one setting and a restart.

  1. Put StudioSpend in your Applications folder and open it once.
  2. Open the file ~/.codex/config.toml in a text editor (create it if it isn’t there; it is the file the ChatGPT desktop app reads for connected tools) and add these three lines at the end:
    [mcp_servers.studiospend]
command = "/Applications/StudioSpend.app/Contents/MacOS/studiospend"
args = ["--mcp"]
  3. Quit ChatGPT completely and open it again. It reads the file only when it starts.
  4. In a new chat, ask: “Use the StudioSpend connector: where should I make a 5-second video right now?”

Claude Desktop and Claude Code are simpler: in StudioSpend, Settings, then Add to Claude. The connector runs on Mac only for now.
