Account Setup

Account Setup

Zcrafter uses a simple account flow so you can get started quickly.

You do not need an API key

You do not need to bring your own API key to use normal Zcrafter chat. For most users, the only thing you need is your email address.

Guest mode vs signed-in mode

Guest mode

Guest mode is useful when you want to try Zcrafter quickly.

  • Fast way to test the product
  • Limited daily usage
  • Temporary workspace
  • Some organization and account features are unavailable

Signed-in mode

Signing in gives you a more complete workspace.

  • Saved chats across sessions
  • Projects for organizing related conversations
  • Usage details in Settings > Usage
  • Access to your plan benefits
  • A more consistent experience across devices and sessions

How sign-in works

  1. Open the sign-up or log-in flow.
  2. Enter your email address.
  3. Complete the human verification step if it appears.
  4. Enter the verification code sent to your email.
  5. Return to Zcrafter and confirm your account under Settings > Account.

Where to check your plan and usage

Open Settings > Usage to see:

  • daily chat availability
  • daily agent usage, if your plan includes it
  • monthly premium usage, if applicable
  • reset times

This is the first place to check if a model or feature seems temporarily unavailable.

Upgrading your plan

If you need more headroom, visit zcrafter.com/pricing (opens in a new tab).

If you do not receive your email code

Try these steps in order:

  1. Wait a minute and check again.
  2. Search spam, junk, promotions, and filtered folders.
  3. Make sure you entered the correct email address.
  4. Retry the flow from the sign-in screen.
  5. If the issue continues, use Support Center or Discord Community.

Security tips

  • Never share your verification code.
  • Never share your mainframe password in a public support message.
  • Sign out on shared devices when you are done.
