Why Fal.ai?

PremiereGPT uses Fal.ai to provide state-of-the-art AI generation capabilities, including high-quality image and video generation (using models like FLUX, Kling, or Luma). To use these features, you need to connect your own Fal.ai account.

​
Step 1: Create a Fal.ai Account

To get started, you need to register on the official Fal.ai platform.
1

Visit the Website

Go to the Fal.ai official website.
2

Sign Up / Login

Click on the “Login” or “Get Started” button in the top right corner.
3

Choose Authentication

Fal.ai uses OAuth for secure access. You can sign up using:
  • GitHub (Recommended for developers)
  • Google
Select your preferred provider to create your account instantly.
Note: New accounts often come with complimentary credits to test the models. Check your Billing Dashboard to see your balance.

​
Step 2: Generate your API Key

Once your account is created, you can generate the secret key required by PremiereGPT.
1

Access the Dashboard

Navigate to the Fal.ai Dashboard.
2

Go to API Keys

Click on the “API Keys” tab in the left sidebar or go directly to fal.ai/dashboard/keys.
3

Create a New Key

Click the “Create Key” button.
4

Label your Key

Give your key a name to remember where it is used (e.g., PremiereGPT-Production).
5

Copy and Save

Important: Your API Key will only be displayed once.
  • Click the copy icon next to the key.
  • Save it in a secure location (like a password manager).
  • If you lose it, you will have to delete it and create a new one.
Security Warning: Never share your API key or commit it to a public repository. Treat it like a password.

​
Step 3: Configure PremiereGPT

Now that you have your key, you need to add it to PremiereGPT.
1

Choose your Method

You can paste your API key in two places:
  • User Settings: Open the User Settings panel in PremiereGPT and look for the Fal.ai API Key field.
  • API Modal: Paste it directly into the configuration modal that appears when you first use an AI generation tool.
2

Paste the Key

Find the dedicated field and paste your secret key. Note that while many keys start with fal_, this is not always the case.
3

Save and Test

Click Save. You can now start generating AI content directly in your timeline!
