Getting Started
Everything you need to go from zero to your first generated asset.
1. Create your account
Sign up with your email or Google account at gizmoji.com/signup. Every new account receives 50 free credits so you can start generating immediately without a payment method.
After signing up, you'll land on your dashboard — the central hub for all your creative work. From here you can jump into any studio, view recent activity, check your credit balance, and manage projects.
2. Explore the workspace
The sidebar gives you access to six creative studios, each designed for a different media type:
- Image Studio — Text-to-image and image-to-image generation with dozens of models and styles.
- Video Studio — Text-to-video, image-to-video, video extend, visual effects, and character animation.
- Audio Studio — AI voiceovers, text-to-speech with multiple voice options, and sound effects.
- Music Studio — Generate original instrumental tracks, scores, and music from text descriptions.
- 3D Studio — Create 3D objects from text prompts or reference images, exported as GLB/OBJ.
- Avatar Studio — Talking-head videos, lip-sync animations, face swaps, and portrait transfers.
Each studio shows available models with their credit costs, parameters, and capabilities. Browse models to find the right one for your task.
3. Generate your first asset
Pick a studio, select a model, write a prompt describing what you want, and hit Generate. Here's what happens behind the scenes:
- Credits are pre-held from your balance (you'll see the exact cost before confirming).
- Your job enters the generation queue and begins processing.
- You'll see a real-time progress indicator as the job runs.
- On success, the asset appears in your workspace and the credit hold is finalized.
- On failure, your credits are automatically refunded in full.
Most generations complete in 10–60 seconds. You can queue multiple jobs at once — they run in parallel up to your plan's concurrency limit.
4. Use the AI assistant
Gizmoji includes a built-in AI assistant that helps you develop ideas before you generate. Use it to:
- Brainstorm concepts — describe a rough idea and get a refined creative brief.
- Write stories — develop narratives, scripts, and dialogue for your projects.
- Plan scenes and shots — break a story into production-ready scene descriptions.
- Optimize prompts — refine your generation prompts for better results.
The AI assistant is available in every project and from the concept workspace.
5. Organize with projects
As your library grows, use projects to group related work. Each project follows a production hierarchy: Project → Story → Scene → Shot → Asset. This keeps your creative pipeline structured from concept to delivery.
Projects are optional for quick generations, but essential for larger productions where you need to track multiple assets, versions, and approval states.
6. Download and iterate
Every generated asset can be downloaded in its original format. Use the Edit Workspace to upscale, restyle, or iterate on any image. Approve your best frames before generating video from them.
Each edit creates a new version — your original is always preserved. Compare versions side by side to pick the best result.
7. Upgrade when you need more
The free plan gives you 50 credits per month — enough to explore every studio and generate dozens of assets. When you need more:
- Buy credit packs — one-time purchases for extra credits in your current billing cycle.
- Subscribe to a plan — Starter, Creator, Pro, or Studio for monthly credit allocations, team features, and priority support.
Visit Credits & Billing for full details on plans and pricing.
