Questions to ask
Capabilities
Deepsearch
Example: Use Deepsearch on the two HR policy PDFs I uploaded. Find all sections that mention “remote work” or “work from home”, summarize rules, highlight differences, keep under 300 words.
Other patterns: Search across all uploaded documents and summarize what they say about X. Based only on the attached contract, explain the cancellation terms in simple language.
File Analysis
Use file analysis when you upload a file and want Pixic to summarize, extract key points, or transform it.
Example: Analyze the PDF report I just uploaded. Give a 5‑bullet executive summary; list 3 key metrics; explain the recommendation under 150 words.
Slides example: Using the uploaded strategy document, create a 10–12 slide outline with titles and 3–4 bullets each, focus on outcomes.
Advanced tools check: If I need advanced tools, did I clearly ask for Deepsearch, file analysis, in‑chat image generation, YouTube analysis, or Google search?
Getting started
Pixic Chat Assistant is an all-in-one AI workspace that gives you access to 50+ large language models (LLMs) from providers like OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, DeepSeek, Cohere, xAI, and Mistral — all in a single interface. You can write, research, analyze files, generate images, build code, and more without switching between tools.

Yes. The free Basic plan gives you 500 credits per month, access to 50+ LLM models, voice dictation, file and URL analysis, Google Search, and saved chats and snippets. You can use it indefinitely at no cost.
It’s three simple steps:
Pixic provides access to models from seven major providers:
Yes. You can change the AI model at any point in a conversation. This lets you compare outputs or use a specialized model for a specific part of your task.
It depends on your task:
You can upload, deep‑search, and analyze more than 100 different file formats, including PDF, ODT, XML, CSV, CSS, HTML, Twig, DOC, JSON, and many more.

Smart Templates are 80+ pre‑built, AI‑tuned workflows powered by DeepSeek R1. They cover writing, code, strategy, marketing, and analysis. Instead of crafting prompts from scratch, you pick a template, add your details, and get production‑ready output in minutes.
No. Smart Templates are designed so you don’t need prompt engineering skills. Just choose a template, fill in your details, and let the AI do the rest.
Yes. Pixic includes several ready‑to‑use assistants:
Yes, with PRO. Upload your documents (PDFs, docs, text, or URLs), set custom instructions (tone, format, behavior, rules), and create dedicated assistants that answer based on your specific knowledge. You can create up to 5 custom assistants and reuse them across projects.
PRO is $29.99/month and includes 3,000 credits per month, AI Memories, in‑chat image generation, up to 5 custom assistants, and priority support — plus everything in the free plan.
Every interaction with an AI model uses credits. The amount consumed varies based on the selected model and the length and complexity of your prompt. More powerful models typically use more credits per interaction.
You can top up with additional credits anytime, upgrade to PRO for more features and higher limits, or wait until your subscription renews and credits reset.
No. Active credits never expire. They're delivered instantly to your account and added to your active subscription and selected workspace.
Absolutely. You can downgrade or cancel your subscription at any time from your account settings.

Yes. Both free and PRO plans let you save entire chats and individual snippets. Access and reuse them anytime from your dashboard.
Note: If you can describe it in words, Imagen can help visualize it.
You have 20+ Imagine models at your fingertips. To get the perfect result select the right one.
Getting started
Pixic Imagen is an AI image generator that turns text descriptions into visuals. It gives you access to 25+ image models — including FLUX, Stable Diffusion, GPT Image, Google Imagen, Grok Image, SeeDream, and more — in a single, easy-to-use workspace. Describe what you want, choose a model, and get an image in seconds.
No design or illustration skills are required. Just describe your image in plain language — subject, style, mood, composition — and let the AI handle the rest. If you’re not sure how to phrase your idea, you can use the PromptGen assistant to help you write better prompts.
Yes. The free Basic plan includes 500 credits per month that work across Pixic Chat, Imagen, and VideoGen. You can generate images with all available models, with no daily limits and no watermark on the outputs.
Three simple steps:
Models & capabilities
Pixic Imagen gives you access to more than 25 image models, including:
Each model has different strengths in style, realism, and cost, so you can choose the best fit for your project.
It depends on what you’re creating:
You can always switch models between generations to compare results and see which one best matches your vision.
Imagen supports multiple aspect ratios such as square (1:1), standard landscape (16:9), portrait (9:16), and other common formats. Resolutions can go up to high definition or higher (including 4K on eligible models), depending on the model and options you select.
If you can describe it in words, Pixic Imagen can usually help you visualize it.
Writing good prompts
A strong prompt usually includes these elements:
The more clearly you describe your idea, the more likely the model will generate what you’re imagining.
Product mockup (photo‑realistic):
“A photo‑realistic image of a matte black reusable water bottle standing on a light wooden desk next to a silver laptop and a small green plant in a white ceramic pot. Soft daylight, blurred office background, centered composition, high resolution.”
Cartoon avatar:
“A friendly cartoon avatar of a young software developer working at a desk. Short dark hair, glasses, navy hoodie, cozy home office background, flat 2D style, pastel colors, waist‑up.”
Website hero banner:
“A modern, minimalistic hero banner illustration for an AI productivity app. Abstract shapes, gradient blue/purple background, line‑art brain icon in the center, empty space on the right for text, 16:9 aspect ratio.”
Features, pricing & technical
Every image generation consumes credits. The amount depends on the model you choose and the complexity of your prompt. Lighter/faster models use fewer credits, while premium models with higher quality or resolution use more.
Yes. Your credits are shared across the entire Pixic platform. The same pool is used for Chat conversations, image generation in Imagen, and video generation in VideoGen.
Yes. Pixic runs entirely in your browser and is fully responsive. You can generate and download images from desktop, tablet, or mobile, and your content stays synced across devices.
All generated images and corresponding prompts are automatically stored in your Content Library inside Pixic. You can re-download, reuse, or reference them at any time.
Select the right VideoGen model and configuration.
Getting started
Pixic VideoGen is an AI video generator that turns text prompts and uploaded images into short videos. It gives you access to 8 AI video models — including Sora 2, Sora 2 Pro, Veo 2, Veo 3, Veo 3.1, and Grok Video — all from a single workspace, with no editing skills required.
No. You don’t need to know video editing tools or timelines. You just describe the scene you want, or upload an image to animate, and VideoGen generates a ready‑to‑use MP4 video for you.
Yes. The Basic (free) plan includes 500 credits per month that you can use across Pixic Chat, Imagen, and VideoGen. On the free plan you already get access to Sora 2 with no watermark and no daily limit, so you can start creating videos immediately.
Three simple steps:
Models & capabilities
Pixic VideoGen offers 8 models, each with different strengths:
Different models vary in quality, speed, and credit cost, so you can choose what matches your goals and budget.
It depends on what you’re trying to create:
You can experiment with different models on the same idea to see which style and motion you prefer.
VideoGen supports several common formats:
Yes. With Veo 3 and Veo 3.1 models, you can have AI generate sound as part of the video — background music, ambient sound, or simple effects — based on your prompt.
Yes. You can upload an image and use it as a reference or starting point for your video. This is useful for animating product photos, illustrations, concept art, or other still visuals.
What to create & prompt tips
If you can describe the motion, subject, and style, Pixic VideoGen can usually help you visualize it as a short video.
A strong video prompt usually covers:
Website hero background:
“A seamlessly looping video for a tech startup hero section. Abstract flowing lines of light on a dark background, smooth continuous motion, modern and minimal, soft blue and cyan colors, static camera, 16:9.”
2D explainer scene:
“A 2D animated explainer‑style scene showing an AI assistant sorting a messy to‑do list into clear categories. Flat design, bright colors, gentle camera moves, smooth transitions, 16:9.”
Vertical social loop:
“A 6‑second vertical loop of sunlight passing through tree leaves, gentle slow‑motion, warm tones, soft focus background, calming mood, 9:16, suitable as a quote background.”
Features, pricing & technical
Every video generation uses credits. The amount depends on the model you choose and, in some cases, the length or options (like audio). Lighter or “fast” models use fewer credits, while premium models with audio and higher fidelity use more.
Yes. Credits are shared across the entire Pixic platform. The same pool is used for Chat, Imagen, and VideoGen, so you can decide how to allocate them based on your projects.
Yes. VideoGen runs entirely in your browser and is fully responsive. You can create and download videos from desktop, tablet, or mobile, and your account stays synced across devices.
All generated videos and their prompts are stored in your Content Library. You can re‑download, share, or reuse them anytime.
When the AI doesn’t do what you expect
If the answer feels vague or surface‑level, try:
If the answer seems off‑topic or misses the point:
To reduce incorrect or invented information:
Control length by being explicit in the prompt:
If the result isn’t close to your idea:
This is a known limitation of many image models, but you can often improve results:
If the style is off:
For cleaner, more focused videos:
To get smoother loops:
To match your brand or mood better:
General limitations of AI
No. Even the best models can be wrong or “hallucinate” facts. They generate likely answers based on patterns, not a perfect internal database. Always double‑check important information, especially for business decisions, health, legal, or financial topics.
No. Pixic is designed as a powerful assistant, not a replacement for professional judgment. You should treat outputs as drafts, suggestions, or starting points — and use your own expertise or a human reviewer for anything high‑stakes.
Models have a training cut‑off date and may not “know” the latest events. Google Search and other tools can help access current information, but you should still confirm key facts with trusted sources, especially for breaking news or fast‑changing domains.
AI can work with the context you provide (files, URLs, custom assistants), but it does not automatically know your internal policies, decisions, or unwritten rules. For consistent results, give clear background, examples, and instructions in your prompts or assistants.

Safety & responsible use
You should avoid using Pixic for harmful, abusive, or illegal purposes. That includes generating content that violates privacy, promotes self‑harm or violence, or breaks laws or platform policies. When in doubt, treat AI as a tool for creativity and productivity, not harm.
