AI Playground
The web and mobile app. Explore models, compare outputs, tune prompts, and generate at any scale — no setup required.
Generate image, video, and audio in the browser, inside your AI agent, or from the terminal. One account, one credit balance, 31 providers.
Picsart AI Playground is one model catalog — accessible from wherever you work.
| Surface | Best for |
|---|---|
| AI Playground (web / mobile) | Exploration, prompt iteration, model comparison, small-scale creative work |
| Skills and MCP | Generating inside Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Windsurf, or any AI agent |
| gen-ai CLI | Scheduled jobs, batch catalogs, scripting, CI/CD automation |
| SDK | Node.js/TypeScript developers building apps with type-safe, auto-polling model calls |
| REST API | Developers in any language (Python, Ruby, Go, PHP) building applications |
All share the same model ids, the same parameters, and the same account. Discover a model in Playground, generate from a CLI script, and call it from your agent — all with the same prompt and settings.
