MCP Tools
Capabilities your agent can call by name — voice, images, video, financial data, and web scraping. No API keys, no setup.
AskDAO wires a set of tools into every agent: voice and audio, image generation, video generation, financial data, and web scraping. Your Skill calls them by name — describe in plain language when to use which, and the agent does the rest.
You don't write code to call them. You don't handle API keys. You don't wrap or re-declare them. The platform connects them and injects them into your agent automatically. Usage is metered for you — there's no billing code in your Skill.
What you can do
Voice & Audio
Narrate text in one voice, or produce a two-host podcast. Pick from a voice library; control emotion and pacing.
Images
Text → image with two engines. Reference images for character consistency, aspect ratios, transparent backgrounds.
Video
Text → video, image → video, or first-frame → last-frame. Many top models through one entry point.
Financial Data
Company profiles, key financials, SEC filings, stock quotes and history. Public data, no keys.
Web Scraping
Scrape JS-rendered pages into clean markdown, list a site's URLs, or crawl a docs site section by section.
Two calling shapes
Most tools return the finished result in a single call — narration, an image, a quote. Describe the call in your Skill and use what comes back.
Video and site crawling are different — they're asynchronous, in two steps. You submit a job (get back an id), then poll a status tool until it's done. Generation can take a few minutes; keep polling until it completes. Each capability page explains its own shape.
Always look up a voice or speaker before synthesizing. Voice and speaker libraries change — call the search/list tool first, then pass the ID you got back. Never hardcode IDs.
