Which kind of instructions do you need?
A creator showing how a model takes shape needs a visual sequence. A builder buying parts needs an exact inventory and tested connections. Those are different deliverables; a convincing image alone does not satisfy both.

| Your goal | Useful output | Where to start |
|---|---|---|
| Explain a model in a post or presentation | A visual steps board and short assembly clip | Inspect the BrickGPT samples above. |
| Rebuild an official LEGO set | The manual matching the set number | Search the official LEGO building-instructions service. |
| Sell buildable instructions for a custom model | A checked model, parts inventory and tested build order | Create or obtain a model file, then validate the build. |
What you can upload and download
Upload one JPG, PNG or WebP image of a finished brick model. The current studio has one generation action: it creates a board first and then a video from the source image and board. You do not set individual part placements or edit a CAD model in this workflow.
The downloads are visual media. A steps-board image is not a multi-page instruction document with a parts list. A video showing a connection does not prove that the connection can be built.
From the public sample to your own result
- Open the sample board at full size and play the sample video. Compare the level of detail with the job you need to finish.
- Check the current plan price and generation allowance on the pricing page. Public samples need no login; generating your own media requires an account with a plan or available credits.
- Open the studio, choose your model image and check that the upload preview shows the entire subject.
- Start the steps-and-video generation. The stages run in order; completion time varies.
- Inspect the board and video in the results area before downloading or publishing them.
Check these three things before paying
Can the sample communicate the level of detail your audience needs? Can you prepare a similarly clear source photo? Are you comfortable reviewing and rejecting incorrect AI details? If an exact build manual is essential, resolve that requirement before buying a visual-media workflow.
