# Turn an idea into a course in 5 minutes

> Tell our chatbot about your idea and start with a first version of the course you can build on.

If you have a course in mind but have not yet prepared its structure, copy, and materials, you can start directly from your idea.

Tell our chatbot about it by answering a few questions. Creatora will use your answers to automatically prepare a first version of the course and your platform.

The **curriculum and course sales page** will already be there, with copy and images created from the information you shared. You can edit everything as you like and add your lesson videos and materials.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Choose I'm starting from scratch">
    Go to the [Creatora start page](https://www.creatora.io/start) and choose your language.

    When asked whether you already sell courses online on another platform, select **I'm starting from scratch**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Describe the course you have in mind">
    The chatbot will ask a few questions to understand what you want to create: for example, what the course is about, who it is for, and what you want to help your students learn or achieve.

    You will also be asked whether you already have a curriculum in mind. If you do, you can share it; otherwise, Creatora will suggest one.

    Answer in your own words, as you would in a normal conversation. You do not need to prepare a brief or have every detail decided already.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Confirm your idea">
    At the end of the conversation, review the information collected and confirm when you are ready.

    Creatora will start creating the course and platform based on your answers.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Open your platform">
    After the conversation, generation usually takes **3–5 minutes**. You do not need to keep the page open: you can close it and you will receive an email when the platform is ready.

    If you stay on the page, select **Go to your course** when generation is complete.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## You have 14 days to prepare your course

You can use the platform for **14 days with no feature limits**, giving you time to try Creatora and prepare everything you need before you start selling.

You can add lesson videos and your materials, edit the curriculum and sales page, customize the platform, and configure sales.

At the end of the 14 days, you will need to choose whether to **activate a subscription** to keep using Creatora or **close the platform**.

## Continue preparing the platform
