AI Studio
Generate the footage you don't have
AI Studio is the part of PikoReels that makes something out of nothing. Describe a scene and you get an image or a video back, in the format a reel needs, ready to cut into a post the same minute.
One box
Describe it, and watch it render
There is one composer and no mode switch. Type what you want to see and AI Studio hands back an image or a video. If you are not sure how to describe it, the prompt builder turns a rough idea into a full prompt for you, so a blank box is never the thing standing between you and a post.
Text to image
A still you can use as a thumbnail, a product shot, or the opening frame of a clip.
Text to video
A five or ten second shot, cut 9:16, ready to drop into a reel.
Prompt builder
Describe the idea in your own words and it writes the prompt that gets you there.
Direction
Set the first frame and the last one
A generated clip that starts somewhere random is a clip you throw away. AI Studio lets you fix the first and last frame, so a shot begins on your product and ends where the next cut needs it to. Attach a product shot or an avatar and the same object or the same face carries across a whole run instead of changing person between takes.
First and last frame
Pin both ends of the shot so the motion between them lands where you want it.
Keep the same face
Attach an avatar and it stays consistent across every clip in the batch.
Keep the same product
Attach a product shot and the object survives the generation intact.
Under the hood
Several models, one composer
You never pick a model out of a dropdown. AI Studio runs 4 image models and 4 video models behind the same box, and the app shows what a generation costs before it runs, so nothing is spent on a surprise. Every model draws from the credit balance your plan already includes.
Image models
Seedream 4.5, NanoBanana 2, NanoBanana Pro, OpenAI ImageGen 2.
Video models
PixVerse 6, Kling v3 Standard, Kling v3 Pro, Seedance 2.5.
Costed before it runs
The credit cost of a generation is on screen before you commit to it. Per-model rates are published in full at /llms.txt.
Next step
Straight from the studio into a post
Footage that never gets posted is not worth much. Anything you make in AI Studio drops into a reel, gets a caption written for it, and goes onto the calendar for TikTok, Instagram Reels or YouTube Shorts. Nothing carries a watermark, on any plan, including the free videos.

FAQ
AI Studio, asked and answered
What is AI Studio?
AI Studio is where you make the footage you don't already have. Type what you want and you get an image or a video back. You can set the first and last frame, choose a five or ten second shot, and use the prompt builder if you're not sure how to describe it. Anything you make there drops straight into a reel.
Do I need to know how to write prompts?
No. The prompt builder takes a rough description and writes the full prompt for you, so you can describe what you want in plain language and adjust from what comes back. Most people get further by generating a few versions and keeping the best one than by trying to write one perfect prompt.
Can I keep the same face or product across several clips?
Yes. Attach an avatar to keep the same person across a run, or attach a product shot to keep the object itself consistent. That is the difference between a batch of clips that reads as one campaign and a batch that reads as a stranger holding a different bottle each time.
How much does a generation cost?
Every plan includes a monthly credit balance and generations draw from it, at 1 credit = $0.01. The app shows the cost of a generation before it runs. Per-model rates are published in full at pikoreels.com/llms.txt, so you can work out a month's spend before you sign up.
Do the videos have a watermark?
No. Nothing PikoReels makes has a watermark on it, free videos included. What you post looks like it came off your phone rather than out of a tool.
