Money Printer Turbo

About

MoneyPrinterTurbo is a tool for generating short videos with one click using AI LLMs. It uses a language model to write scripts and narration, then assembles the video automatically. The LLM provider is configurable via config.toml and the built-in WebUI.

As of PR #1022 (merged June 12, 2026), AI/ML API is a built-in provider option in MoneyPrinterTurbo. Select it in the WebUI provider setup or set it in config.toml to use any AI/ML API model for script and story generation.

Quick start

1

Open config.toml

Open config.toml (copy from config.example.toml if it does not exist yet).

2

Set the provider and key

Set the provider to AIML API and add your key:

[app]
llm_provider = "aimlapi"
aimlapi_api_key = "your_key_here"
aimlapi_base_url = "https://api.aimlapi.com/v1"
aimlapi_model_name = "openai/gpt-4o-mini"
3

Start MoneyPrinterTurbo

Start MoneyPrinterTurbo and generate a video.

When to use AI/ML API with MoneyPrinterTurbo

AI/ML API works well with MoneyPrinterTurbo when you want:

  • one key to access many model families for script generation

  • an OpenAI-compatible endpoint that fits alongside existing provider options

  • easy switching between models (e.g. faster/cheaper for drafts, stronger for final scripts)

Prerequisites

Before you start, make sure you have:

The base URL is:

Option 1: Configure via config.toml

Open or create config.toml from the project root (use config.example.toml as a starting point).

Set the provider and your credentials:

aimlapi_base_url is optional — the default is already https://api.aimlapi.com/v1.

Option 2: Configure via WebUI

  1. Start MoneyPrinterTurbo.

  2. Open the WebUI (default: http://localhost:8501).

  3. Go to the provider setup section.

  4. Select AIML API from the provider list.

  5. Enter your AI/ML API key and pick a model.

  6. Save and generate.

Model selection

Use exact AI/ML API model IDs. The default model is openai/gpt-4o-mini.

Common examples for script and story generation:

  • openai/gpt-4o-mini — fast and cost-effective, good default

  • openai/gpt-4o — stronger output for complex scripts

  • anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.5 — strong for long-form narrative

  • google/gemini-2.5-flash — lower latency, lower cost

Good starting models

Start with openai/gpt-4o-mini for most video generation tasks. Switch to openai/gpt-4o or anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.5 if you need richer, longer scripts.

For the full catalog, use All Model IDs.

Config checklist

Make sure these values are set:

  • provider: aimlapi

  • base URL: https://api.aimlapi.com/v1

  • API key: aimlapi_api_key in config.toml, or the AIML API key field in WebUI

  • model ID: exact AI/ML API model ID

Troubleshooting

AIML API does not appear in the WebUI provider list

The preset was added in PR #1022. Update MoneyPrinterTurbo to the latest version.

I get an auth error

Check that:

  • aimlapi_api_key is correctly set in config.toml

  • the key is valid at aimlapi.com/app/keys

  • llm_provider is set to aimlapi

Script generation returns an error about the model

Make sure the model ID is a chat-completion model supported by AI/ML API. Check the full list at aimlapi.com/models or use All Model IDs.

I want to use a proxy

Override the base URL in config.toml:
