Creating Your Account

Creating Your Account

plotTree requires an account to save your work and manage your stories. The signup process is straightforward, and you’ll get a 7-day free trial to explore all features.

Signup Options

You can create an account using either:

  1. Email and Password - Standard email-based signup with verification
  2. Google Sign-In - Quick signup using your Google account

Email and Password Signup

Step 1: Navigate to Signup

Visit the plotTree signup page and select “Create account.”

Step 2: Enter Your Details

  • Email: Enter a valid email address (you’ll need to verify it)
  • Password: Create a password at least 8 characters long

Step 3: Create Account

Click “Create account” to submit. You’ll see a confirmation message that an verification email has been sent.

Step 4: Verify Your Email

Check your inbox for a verification email from plotTree. Click the verification link to activate your account.

Note: You won’t be able to use plotTree features until you verify your email.

Google Sign-In

Quick Alternative

Click “Sign up with Google” and follow the OAuth flow. This method:

  • Skips email verification (Google handles that)
  • Uses your Google display name and email
  • Is faster than email/password signup

What Happens After Signup

Once your account is created and verified:

  1. Trial Period Starts: You get 7 days of full access to all features
  2. Default Features Enabled: All project creation and AI features are available
  3. Ready for Setup: You’ll need to add API keys before using AI features

Next Steps

After creating your account, you’ll need to set up API keys to enable AI-powered story generation. plotTree uses a Bring Your Own Keys (BYOK) model, so you’ll need an OpenRouter API key to get started.
