Quickstart
Everything you need to know to start creating with Freepik — whether you are an individual creator, a marketing team, or a large organization.
Freepik is an all-in-one creative platform that combines AI-powered tools with a library of millions of stock assets — photos, vectors, icons, videos, and templates. You can generate images and videos from text, edit and enhance visuals with AI, automate creative workflows, and download ready-to-use content, all from one place.
Your first steps
Create your account
Go to freepik.com and click Sign in. You can create an account with your email or sign in with Google, Apple, or Facebook. Free accounts get immediate access to stock content and limited AI credits.
Choose a plan
Freepik offers plans from Free to Enterprise. If you just want to explore, the free plan works. For full AI access and commercial use, check out Premium, Premium+, or Pro. Teams should look at Business or Enterprise.
Pick a tool and start creating

Organize your work in Projects
Everything you create is automatically saved in your Personal Project. You can create additional Projects, organize with folders, and share with teammates on Business or Enterprise plans.
Stay updated
Freepik shares product updates, new models, and tutorials on YouTube, Discord, and the Freepik blog. You can also check the Academy for courses and video walkthroughs.
