How to Use PlushifyAI

A step-by-step guide to transforming your images into adorable plushies

1

Sign Up & Access Dashboard

Start by creating your account. In the current UI-only demo, you're automatically signed in as a mock user with 75 credits. Navigate to the Dashboard to begin creating your plushie.

Note: In this UI-only demo, authentication is mocked. When the backend is implemented, you'll sign in with Google OAuth.

2

Upload Your Image

Upload the image you want to transform into a plushie. You can either drag and drop your image into the upload zone or click to browse your files. You can upload up to 5 images at once.

Supported formats: JPG, JPEG, PNG

Maximum file size: 10MB per image

3

Select Style & Options

Choose your preferred plushie style, background, and size from the options panel:

  • Plushie Style: Choose between Cute & Fluffy, Realistic, Cartoon, or Vintage
  • Background: Select Transparent, White, Gradient, or Custom
  • Size Preference: Pick Small (6"), Medium (12"), or Large (18")

Tip: The "Cute & Fluffy" style works best for pets and characters, while "Realistic" is great for portraits.

4

Generate Your Plushie

Click the "Generate Plushie" button to start the AI transformation. The process typically takes 10-30 seconds depending on server load and image complexity.

Note: In the current UI-only demo, the generate button is disabled. This feature will be enabled when the backend AI generation is implemented.

5

Download & Share

Once your plushie is generated, you can view it in your Gallery. From there, you can download the image, share it, or delete it. You'll also see a before/after comparison to see the transformation.

Tips & Best Practices

Best Image Types

Use clear, well-lit photos with a single subject. Images with simple backgrounds work best. Pet photos, character art, and portraits are ideal.

Recommended Sizes

For best results, use images at least 512x512 pixels. Higher resolution images (1024x1024 or larger) will produce better quality plushies.

Style Selection

Match the style to your subject: "Cute & Fluffy" for pets, "Realistic" for portraits, "Cartoon" for character art, and "Vintage" for a nostalgic look.
