Cataas ("Cat as a Service") is a public image service that returns cat pictures and GIFs on demand. Callers can fetch a random cat, a random cat matching one or more tags, a specific cat by its id, or restrict results to GIFs, and can overlay custom text with a chosen font, size, and color. It also lists the available tags and returns cat metadata as JSON, and images can be resized or filtered via query parameters. No credentials required. No account needed [cataas.com](https://cataas.com/) **4** actions What the catalog holds today. Ask for anything missing and your agent reads the API documentation and adds it. ## What do you want to automate with Cataas? Give your AI client this address. `https://mcp.apiant.ai` One connection does both: ask your client to act in an app once, or have it build an automation that keeps running. Any client that takes a remote MCP server. Nothing to install.

APIANT's MCP server at https://mcp.apiant.ai works with Cataas. Add that address to any AI client that takes a remote MCP server and sign in once in your browser. Your client can then run Cataas actions on demand, or have APIANT build, test and run automations that use Cataas. Nothing to install. ### ### What can your agent do in Cataas? Any of Cataas's 4 actions, including Generate captioned cat image, Generate cat image, List cats and List tags. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can I use Cataas directly from Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor? Yes. Connect your AI client to APIANT once and it works with Cataas two ways. Ask it to do something in Cataas once and it runs that action on the spot. Ask for an automation and your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running on its own. A one-off action uses your plan's tasks the same way an automation step does. ### ### Do I need to write code against the Cataas API? No. APIANT connects to the Cataas API for you. Describe what you want in plain language and your agent builds it on the Cataas triggers and actions in the catalog. If you need an endpoint that is not there yet, your agent reads the Cataas API documentation and adds it. ### ### Which apps can Cataas connect to? Any app in the catalog; the list on this page pairs Cataas with each of them. If the other app is missing, point your agent at its API documentation and it builds the connector. ### ### What happens when something fails? Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Is there a free plan? Yes. Every plan includes the agent, including free, and building from your own AI client spends no assistant credits.
