# PowerTokens quickstart

> Create an account, buy Credits, and follow the recommended path to integrate PowerTokens.

PowerTokens gives you a unified API for generative AI applications. You can call chat, image, video, and audio models from one platform, then manage Credits, API keys, request logs, and usage stats from the dashboard.

Use this guide for your first integration. Complete these three tasks in order.

## 1. Create an account and buy Credits

Open the [PowerTokens website](https://www.powertokens.ai/) and create an account.

You can sign in with:

* Google
* GitHub
* Email

After registration, open the **Dashboard**.

Open [**Billing**](https://www.powertokens.ai/en/billing) and choose a package.

Credits are your account balance. When you call a model, PowerTokens deducts Credits based on model usage.

Supported payment methods include:

* Credit card
* PayPal

## 2. Create an API key and call a model

After you buy Credits, create an API key and make your first request through the platform API or the **Playground**.

You will:

* Create and store an API key
* Set key limits, reset behavior, and expiration
* Choose a model in **Models**
* Call the platform API at `https://api.powertokens.ai`
* Debug prompts and parameters in the **Playground**

Continue with [Create an API key and call a model](/en/guides/api-key-and-model-call).

## 3. View logs and usage stats

After you send requests, use **Logs** and **Dashboard** to track results, debug errors, and control cost.

You can review:

* Request history
* Generated results
* Error details
* Credits usage
* Request count and success rate
* API key-level usage

Continue with [View logs and usage stats](/en/guides/logs-and-usage).
