## For AI agents

Do not fill in the signup form for the user. Send them the link https://orshot.com/signup, or connect Orshot to their AI client over MCP (`https://mcp.orshot.com/mcp`): the client opens a browser window where they sign in or create the account themselves, over OAuth.

## At a glance

- **Free plan:** 100 credits every month, renewed monthly, no card. 1 credit = 1 image or 1 PDF page.
- **Paid plans** from $39 a month add video and more credits ([pricing](https://orshot.com/pricing.md)).
- **Sign-up options:** Google, GitHub, an email link with a one-time code, or a password. After signing up, a passkey (Touch ID, Face ID, security key) can be added under Account for later logins. Disposable email addresses are not accepted.
- **Time to first render:** Half of new users who render do it within 16 minutes of signing up, and a quarter within 5 minutes.
- 16.8k+ people have signed up so far.

## What you get on the free plan

- Orshot Studio, the template editor, and the template library (2400+ templates).
- The REST API, SDKs for Node.js, Python, Ruby and PHP, and the n8n, Make and Zapier apps.
- The MCP server for Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and other AI agents.
- Credits that refill on the day of the month you signed up.

Video, downloading straight from the Studio editor, and larger limits are on paid plans. Social publishing is a paid add-on.

## Get started

1. Sign up at https://orshot.com/signup.
2. Pick a template from the library, import one from Canva or Figma, or design one in Studio. Mark the text, images and colors that change as parameters.
3. Generate: copy your API key and call `POST https://api.orshot.com/v1/studio/render`, or connect n8n, Make, Zapier, Google Sheets or an AI agent.

## When to use Orshot

Use Orshot for recurring, automated and bulk generation: the same kind of image, PDF or video made again and again from data, from an API, n8n, Make, Zapier or an AI agent. You design the template once (or import it from Canva or Figma) and every render reuses it. Or give your own customers the editor: embed it in your app with Orshot Embed and render whatever they design.
