📄 Getting Started Guide

Welcome to GUID.AI. This platform is a one-stop AI large model aggregation and creation platform that supports chat, images, videos, audio, Apps tools, Inspiration Square, wallet recharge, creator earnings, and API / Skills access for developers.

If this is your first time using the platform, we recommend getting started in the following order: log in to your account -> choose a creation entry -> save or publish your work -> use API / Skills as needed.

1. Log In or Register First

Open the official platform homepage.
Click "Log In" or "Get Started".
Depending on the options enabled on the page, you can log in using your phone number, email verification code, or a third-party account.
Registration is usually completed automatically when you log in for the first time.
After a successful login, you can usually enter the Inspiration Square or the main system interface by default.

Note: You may be able to browse some public content without logging in, but you need to log in before using features such as creation, purchasing inspirations, publishing works, recharging, and API keys.

2. Understand Computing Power

The main consumption unit in the platform is computing power, usually displayed as ⚡. Chat, image generation, video generation, audio synthesis, Apps tool tasks, purchasing paid inspirations, API calls, and similar actions may all consume computing power.

You can view the following in Wallet Management:

Item	Description
Available balance	Computing power balance available for chat, creation, purchasing inspirations, and API calls
Recharge records	View recharge orders, arrival status, and payment records
Consumption records	View deduction details for creation, purchases, API calls, and more
Income details	View income from inspiration revenue sharing, invitation rewards, and more

If your balance is insufficient, you can go to Wallet Management / Recharge Page to recharge.

3. Start from the Inspiration Square

If you are not sure where to start, we recommend entering the Inspiration Square first.

The Inspiration Square is suitable for:

Browsing AI works such as images, videos, and audio published by other users.
Viewing prompts, parameters, or creative ideas for works.
Liking, collecting, and sharing works you like.
Using free inspirations to continue creating.
Purchasing paid inspirations and creating derivative works based on them.
Publishing your own works and setting them as free or paid.

After purchasing a paid inspiration, the system creates a usable copy of the work for you. If you publish a paid inspiration, you can receive earnings according to platform rules after other users purchase it.

4. Complete Your First Chat

If you want to ask questions directly, write copy, write code, make plans, or compare multiple models, you can go to the Chat page.

Click "Chat" in the top navigation.
Select a suitable model.
Enter your question or requirement in the input box.
Click send and wait for the model's reply.
For more complex analysis, you can enable web search, deep thinking, role assistants, or multi-model collaboration.

The Chat page is suitable for the following scenarios:

Scenario	Recommended Usage
Daily Q&A	Select a general-purpose model and ask directly
Copywriting	Use writing, social media, or marketing templates
Technical questions	Select a coding assistant or a model with stronger reasoning ability
Complex decisions	Use multi-model collaboration, letting multiple models answer separately before summarizing
Translation and polishing	Select a translator or writing assistant role

Note: Multi-model collaboration calls multiple models at the same time and additionally calls a summary model, so a single use usually consumes more than normal chat.

5. Complete Your First Image, Video, or Audio Creation

The platform provides multiple creation entries. You can choose based on your goal:

Entry	Suitable For
Image	Text-to-image, reference image-to-image, image editing, stylized creation
Video	Text-to-video, generating videos from reference images, video tasks with audio or subtitles
Audio	Text-to-speech, voice selection, speed and tone adjustment
Apps	Ready-to-use tools such as face swap, outfit change, style transfer, background replacement, and image restoration

The general creation process is as follows:

Go to the corresponding page, such as AI Image / AI Video / AI Audio / Apps.
Select a model or tool app.
Enter a prompt, or upload reference images, audio, character materials, and similar assets.
Adjust parameters such as aspect ratio, quantity, quality, duration, voice, and subtitles as needed.
Check the price or estimated consumption displayed on the page.
Click "Generate" or "Start Creating".
After generation is complete, you can download it, save it to your work library, or publish it to the Inspiration Square.

Videos, some Apps, and high-quality generation tasks may be asynchronous tasks that require waiting for a while. After the task is complete, you can view, download, or continue editing it.

6. Manage My Works

After creation is complete, you can view and manage your works in Assets -> My Works.

Common operations include:

Viewing generated images, videos, audio, and other works.
Editing work titles, tags, prompts, and descriptions.
Downloading works or using them again for creation.
Collecting frequently used inspirations or materials.
Publishing works to the Inspiration Square.
Setting works as free or paid inspirations.

If you want others to see and use your work, make sure the visibility is set to public when publishing. If it is set to visible only to yourself, the work will not appear in the Inspiration Square.

7. Publish Works and Earn Revenue

When you have a work you are satisfied with, you can publish it to the Inspiration Square.

Publishing process:

Go to Assets -> My Works and select an existing work to publish.
Upload or select the work.
Fill in the title, tags, prompt, or work description.
Choose free or paid.
If you choose paid, set the usage price.
Set the visibility to public.
Click publish.

After other users purchase your paid inspiration, the system automatically deducts computing power from the buyer, and the platform credits the earnings to your wallet.

8. How Developers Access the API

If you want to integrate platform capabilities into your own system, website, script, automation tool, or backend service, you can use the API.

For detailed API usage instructions, click the View Full Documentation button.

Security recommendation: Do not put API keys in frontend pages, public repositories, screenshots, or chat records. It is recommended to store them only in server-side environment variables or a secure configuration center.

9. How Agent Users Use Skills / MCP

If you use Agent tools such as Claude, Cursor, Codex, or OpenClaw, you can go to the Skills page to view the integration method.

General process:

Go to "Skills" in the top navigation.
Download or configure the skill package according to the page instructions.
Fill in the platform Base URL and API Key in the configuration.
In the Agent conversation, directly describe the image, video, or audio you want to generate.

If you are only developing a regular business system, use the API first. If you want to call multimodal creation capabilities directly in an Agent conversation, you can use Skills / MCP.
