What do I need to use PrismPoster?
To use PrismPoster you need three things: a modern web browser, a PrismPoster account, and credits to generate with — and signup grants free trial credits to start. There is no app to install and nothing to download; PrismPoster runs entirely in your browser. Your generations are private by default. That's the whole list of requirements. The sections below cover each one and a couple of details worth knowing before you start.
Do I need to install anything?
No. PrismPoster is a browser-based studio — there is no desktop app, plugin, or download to set up. Open it in a current version of a mainstream browser and sign in. Keeping your browser up to date gives you the best experience with the studios, the timeline editor, and exports.
What do I need to get started?
- A modern browser — a current version of a mainstream browser.
- An account — pick an @username, enter your email, and set a password. See create your account.
- Credits — in many countries signup grants starter credits, which expire 24 hours after they are granted. Every studio — Image, Music, and Video — works on a free account; video is credit-gated rather than tier-locked, and it's the most credit-intensive thing you can make. On 200 shared starter credits, realistic video is six 4-second 360p clips at 30 credits each, or two 6-second 720p clips at 96 each, alongside your images and music. A free account renders Standard video up to 720p; 1080p, 4K, and the whole Premium video engine open with any one-off credit pack, from €3.99. See free vs paid account and credit costs by type.
Are my generations private?
Yes. Everything you create is private by default. Nothing is published or shared without an explicit action from you, and your data is encrypted at rest and in transit. Publishing work to your public profile is always a deliberate, opt-in choice. See keeping generations private and our security page.
Is there a cost to try it?
No upfront cost. A free account is the evaluation path, and in many countries your starter credits let you generate right away; they expire 24 hours after they are granted. Keep in mind that generated media consumes real credits as soon as it is produced, even on a free account. When you want more, buy a one-time credit pack from €3.99 — there is no subscription, and purchased credits never expire — see /pricing.
