How to Get Started with Spicy AI
This guide walks you through your first session on spicyai.app — from guest exploration to signed-in creation with Spicy Chat, images, and video.
Step 1: Open the official site
Go to https://spicyai.app — the official Spicy AI website. Bookmark this URL so you do not land on similarly named third-party sites.
From the homepage you can jump into Spicy Chat, open the AI image editor, or use the quick-create bar for chat, stills, or video prompts.
Step 2: Try as a guest or sign in
Spicy AI supports both paths:
- Guest — limited free chats and images per device to explore without an account
- Sign in — unlock more free allowance, character creation, and saved private companions
- New users — daily credits for 7 days after signing in
Step 3: Choose what to create first
Most new users start with one of these entry points on spicyai.app:
- Spicy Chat (/spicy-chat) — pick a public character or create your own
- AI Image Editor — describe a scene or upload a reference photo
- Text to Video or Image to Video — when you are ready for motion
- Talking Avatar — portrait plus audio for a lip-synced clip
Step 4: Understand credits and API keys
When your free allowance runs out, top up with one-time crypto credit packs on the Pricing page — no auto-renewing subscription.
Alternatively, bind a supported third-party API key in Account Settings to keep generating while billing runs through your provider.
