Docsie MCP server · Word templates

Fill your Word template from a video, from the chat.

Give your AI assistant a recording and the Word form your team already uses for work instructions, SOPs or procedures. Docsie fills every field the video supports, writes out each step with screenshots, and lists the fields left for you.

Runs the same Video to Word Template app as Docsie. Uses AI credits.

https://app.docsie.io/mcpWorks in Claude, ChatGPT, Claude Code, Cursor, Codex and any MCP client.

Your template, filled in from the video

A plain Word work instruction, and the same template filled from a LibreOffice Calc recording with its steps and screenshots. The same app runs over MCP.

What you can ask

Ask for the document, in your own format.

Your assistant runs Video to Word Template with the .docx you name or the template saved in your app settings. If the content is already in Docsie, fill_docx_template fills your template from it.

Claude

“Fill our work instruction template from this Loom recording of the pivot table setup.”

  • app_run · video-to-word-template
  • app_run_status
  • app_run_result

The filled Word file to download, with a list of the fields the video couldn't answer.

Cursor

“Use QA-Form-v3.docx from my Docsie files as the template for this screen recording.”

  • list_files
  • app_run · video-to-word-template
  • app_run_result

The run fills that .docx instead of the template saved in your app settings.

ChatGPT

“Fill the SOP template with the steps from the guide Docsie wrote from my video earlier.”

  • fill_docx_template

A Word file in your template's layout, filled from that guide.

Real results

A real run, from screen recording to work instruction.

Results from the Video to Word Template app on a four-minute LibreOffice Calc recording and a plain Word form. Over MCP, the same app runs and your assistant reads back the result.

02

A plain Word form is enough

Labels such as Purpose, Scope, Required equipment, Step 1 and Step 2, and a revision history table. No placeholders were added to the template.

Every step, with its screenshot

The template had two step lines and the video showed twelve steps, so twelve were written, ten with a frame from the recording. The header and styles stay as they were.

How it works

How template filling works over MCP.

Bring your template

Save your .docx in the app settings once, or name a different Word file in your Docsie workspace for one run. A plain Word form with labels works.

Point it at the video

Give a YouTube, Loom, Vimeo or Google Drive link, a direct video URL, or a video already in Docsie.

Check what's left

The result says which fields were filled and which are left for you, such as an owner or approver that a recording can't know.

Permissions and limits

What to tick, and what it costs.

Packs to tick

Running Video to Word Template needs Workspace create and edit, which is off by default. fill_docx_template is part of the default Video to docs pack.

AI credits

Every fill uses your organization's AI credits, the same as running the app in Docsie. The MCP server itself is on every plan.

Some fields need a person

Fields a video can't answer, such as a document number, an owner or safety notes, are left blank and listed for you to complete.

FAQ

Common questions

Can Claude or ChatGPT fill a Word template?

On their own they can write text for you to paste into Word. Connected to the Docsie MCP server, they can run Docsie's Video to Word Template app or fill_docx_template, which fill your .docx and keep its layout and styles.

Do I need placeholders in my template?

No. A plain Word form with labels such as Purpose, Scope and Step 1 works. Templates that already use placeholders are filled too.

Which template does a run use?

The .docx you name for that run, or the Word template saved in your app settings. One of the two is needed.

Which videos work?

YouTube, Loom, Vimeo and Google Drive links, direct video file URLs, and videos already in your Docsie workspace.

Does it cost extra?

The MCP server is on every Docsie plan. Each fill uses AI credits, the same as in the app.
