Getting started
What is ZOOOP?
ZOOOP is an AI-native creative platform. Generate images, videos, and audio on a browser-based infinite canvas, use individual AI tool pages for specific jobs like background removal or upscaling, launch ready-to-use AI templates, or publish your own templates through Creator Hub and earn credits when others run them.
How is ZOOOP different from Midjourney, Runway, or Discord bots?
ZOOOP runs every top model in one workspace instead of locking you into a single provider. You can compare models side by side, chain image and video workflows on the same canvas, and keep your history, references, and prompts organized without switching tools.
Do I need to install anything?
No. ZOOOP runs entirely in the browser, on any modern device. Sign in with Google or email, and you are ready to create — no desktop app, no GPU, no local setup.
How do I get started with ZOOOP?
Sign in, open a new canvas, and create freely — generate your first image, video, or clip in under a minute. Pick a template if you want a guaranteed structure, or start from a blank canvas for full creative control.
Do I need design or AI experience to use ZOOOP?
No. If you can describe what you want in a sentence, you can generate with ZOOOP. Start from a template for a guaranteed structure, or open the canvas for full creative control as your skills grow.
Which browsers and devices does ZOOOP support?
ZOOOP runs on any modern browser — Chrome, Safari, Edge, or Firefox — on desktop, tablet, or phone. A desktop with a larger screen is recommended for the infinite canvas, but generation works everywhere.
AI models
Which AI models does ZOOOP support?
ZOOOP integrates the leading models for every media type. For images: GPT Image 2, Seedream 5, Kling O3, Nanobanana 2, Grok Imagine, Flux, and more. For video: Seedance 2, Veo 3.1, Kling O3, Grok Imagine, Wan 2.7, Pixverse 6, Vidu Q3, and more. For voice and music: ElevenLabs, Minimax, xAI, Qwen 3, Inworld, Index TTS, Google Lyria 2, and more. New models are added continuously.
What is the difference between templates and tools?
Tools focus on the most commonly used AI operations — background removal, upscaling, inpainting, and so on — applied to your own assets.
Templates focus on AI creative generation, packaging prompts and parameters into ready-to-use starting points (portraits, product shots, short videos, etc.).
Unlike tools, templates can be published by any creator, and publishers earn credits every time someone runs their template.
Can I use multiple AI models in the same project?
Yes. A single canvas can mix any combination of image, video, audio, and lip-sync models. Compare outputs side by side, chain them together, or swap models at any step without starting over.
How often are new models added?
We integrate leading models as they launch — usually within days of public release. Existing projects automatically gain access to new models, and you can switch between versions on any canvas node.
Pricing & usage
Is there a free tier?
Yes. Every new account receives starter credits on signup, and credits from credit packs never expire.
Personal use is fully pay-as-you-go — no subscription required, just top up credit packs when you need more. Teams start free too: every team includes 3 free creator seats. Only larger teams need the optional Pro plan, billed per paid creator seat.
Can I use the content I generate commercially?
Yes. Content you generate is yours to use commercially — personal projects, client work, and brand use are all fine.
Does ZOOOP support batch generation?
Yes. Every generator supports batch generation of up to four outputs per click, so you can explore variants of the same prompt in one go.
How does the credit system work?
Every generation deducts credits based on the model and output length or resolution. The exact cost is shown before you run a job, so there are no surprises — and tasks that fail are automatically refunded.
Cloud storage for your assets includes a free tier (first 5 GB free), and storage beyond that is billed in tiered rates — you only pay for what you use.
Do my credits expire?
Credits from credit packs do not expire — they stay in your account until you use them. You can top up in any pack size, and bulk packs include discount tiers for heavier creators.
What happens if a generation fails?
Failed tasks are automatically refunded in full — you are only charged for completed generations.
Team plan
What's the difference between Free and Pro team plans?
On Free, you can build a team of up to 20 members with 3 free creator seats — the remaining slots can be filled by viewers at no cost. You also get full access to every image, video, voice and music model, with pay-as-you-go credit top-ups.
If your team needs more than 3 creators, the Pro plan adds paid creator seats at $15/seat/month. Each paid seat delivers 1000 credits per month into the team's shared credit pool, and the team unlocks higher concurrency, a 500-member cap, and priority support.
Viewers don't take a creator seat.
What's the difference between a creator and a viewer?
Creators can submit AI tasks, build and edit canvases, and consume team credits. Viewers can browse and download the team's work but cannot create.
Each team's creator capacity = 3 free creator seats + paid creator seats (Pro plan only). Viewers don't count toward creator capacity — they're free up to the team's member cap.
When are team credits granted, and do they expire?
ZOOOP grants the credits to the team's shared pool every month, automatically. On Pro, each paid creator seat delivers 1000 credits per month into the team pool, shared by every creator. Credits never expire.
If you add a seat mid-cycle, the current month's credits arrive prorated for the days remaining; from next month onward the full amount is granted.
Can the team buy credit packs too?
Yes. Purchase from the Credits tab. Top-ups land in the team pool and are usable by every creator on the team.
Does adding a seat charge me right away?
Yes. We bill prorated for the days left in the current cycle, and the same proportion of credits is granted to the team pool right then.
For example, with 15 days left in the cycle, adding 1 seat costs about $7.50 and adds about 600 credits. From next month onward, that seat renews at the full $15.
Can I get a refund when I remove a seat?
The current cycle's payment isn't refunded — but every paid benefit stays in place for the rest of the cycle: the seat keeps full creator access through the period end, and the credits already granted into the team pool stay too (they never expire).
The seat is then marked for end-of-cycle removal, freed automatically when the period rolls over, and from the next cycle onward billing reflects the lower seat count.
Can I cancel my subscription, and what happens to the team?
Yes — open the Subscription tab and click Cancel. By default cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing cycle (you keep full access until then).
When the cycle ends: the team drops back to the free plan, every non-Owner creator becomes a viewer automatically, the team's remaining credits stay (they never expire), and the Owner can keep creating.
Changed your mind? Click Reactivate any time before the cycle ends to undo the cancellation.
How do I invite people to the team, and is there a limit?
From Members, click "New invite link" and choose how long the link lasts and how many uses it allows. The recipient signs in, taps "Apply to join," and an Owner or admin approves them.
Free teams cap at 20 members; Pro teams scale up to 500. Every team includes 3 free creator seats; on Pro, additional creators come from your paid seat allotment. Email support@zooop.ai if you need more seats.
AI template creator
Can I publish my own templates and earn from them?
Yes — turn any winning prompt into a template in Creator Hub. Every time another creator runs your template, you earn credits automatically.
Typical rates are 2 credits per run for image templates and 5 credits per run for video templates; the exact rate is shown at publish time.
How do I publish my first template?
Open Creator Hub from your user menu, pick an image or video base model, configure the prompt and parameters, add a title, description, and cover image, then submit. Templates go live once approved — usually within a day.
Can I edit a template after it is live?
Yes. You can update the title, description, cover, and parameters at any time from Creator Hub.
How are creator earnings calculated and used?
Earnings accrue as credits each time someone runs your template. After a 7-day holding period, they convert 1:1 into your regular credit balance and can be spent on any generation on ZOOOP.
What kinds of templates tend to earn the most?
High-earning templates usually share a few traits: a clear, repeatable look, a short but vivid description, and a strong cover image made from real outputs.
Templates with a specific niche (a particular portrait style, a product-photography setup, a short-form video format) typically outperform generic "make anything" templates.
API keys
What is an API key (PAT), and when do I need one?
An API key — formally a Personal Access Token (PAT) — lets an external AI agent (Claude Code, Codex, custom scripts) call ZOOOP on your behalf. You only need one if you want a tool outside the ZOOOP website to generate images, videos, or audio for you. Inside the ZOOOP web app, no key is needed.
Where do I create an API key, and how do I give it to my agent?
Open Profile → API Keys, click "Create key," pick the project the key binds to (optionally set a daily credit cap), and copy the token starting with `zpk_live_`. The full token is shown only once. Then expose it to your agent as an environment variable, e.g. `export ZOOOP_API_KEY=zpk_live_...`. Most agents pick it up automatically from the env.
Who pays for tasks an agent submits via an API key?
You do. Every task the key submits is charged against your account's credit balance, exactly the same as if you ran it inside the web app. The optional daily credit cap on each key is a safety net to bound how much one runaway script can spend in 24 hours.
Why does a key bind to a project, and can I change it later?
All tasks and uploads from a key land in the project you bind it to — so the output, history, and storage usage all sit together where you expect. The binding is fixed at creation time and cannot be changed. To target a different project, revoke the current key and create a new one bound to the new project.
I accidentally leaked my key. What do I do?
Go to Profile → API Keys, find the leaked key in the list, open the action menu and click Revoke. Revocation is immediate — any agent still holding that token loses access within seconds. Then create a fresh key for the agent. ZOOOP never stores the plaintext token, so there's nothing else to clean up on our side.
What's the difference between Disable, Revoke, and Expire?
Disable is reversible — pause a key while you sort something out, re-enable it later, keep the same prefix. Revoke is permanent — the key is gone forever, you must create a new one to replace it. Expire happens automatically when an expiration date passes; expiration cannot be extended (revoke + recreate to refresh).
Are there rate limits or quotas I should know about?
Per key: 60 task submissions per minute, 30 uploads per minute, 120 status polls per minute. Beyond that you'll get HTTP 429 with `Retry-After`. The optional daily credit cap on each key adds a budget ceiling. You can also limit concurrency at the account level — the default lets 3 PAT-submitted tasks run in parallel and queues the rest.
Where can my agent find the full API reference?
Two layers — discovery on the ZOOOP host, full bundle on GitHub.
Discovery (unauthenticated, served by ZOOOP):
• `https://api.zooop.ai/llms.txt` — short index for AI agents.
• `https://api.zooop.ai/llms-full.txt` — every doc concatenated for single-fetch ingest.
Canonical SKILL bundle (integration guide + REST API reference + helper scripts):
• `https://github.com/zooopai/skill-zooop` — install via `claude install github:zooopai/skill-zooop`, or `git clone`.
Claude Code and similar tools follow the GitHub link automatically once they read llms.txt.
