Get Started

Most of your setup is prepared for you. Octo, Genuin's Supervised Intelligence interface, drafts each step from your website and brand context and shows it to you rendered; you confirm, edit, or decline. Five steps take you from a business account to your own media network, the same from a solo podcaster to a national retailer.

Add context

Connect the website crawler and add guidelines, audience notes, catalog, partner rules, and policies; every proposal gets closer to what you would have built.

24/7 support on every plan

Ask in plain language from BCC or any docs page; an account manager, developer, or Ops engineer joins the thread when a person is needed.

Everything by API and SDK

Create and operate a Business Account programmatically: OAuth for partners, keys for owners, and every product as a resource. Each article ends with its calls.

Set Up Your Account

Create your Business Account on Brand Control Center (BCC)

When you finish, you will have a Business Account on Brand Control Center (BCC), the centralized hub for your brand on Genuin, with your first brand created, a sandbox API key, and an empty media network waiting for content. Your part takes about 3 minutes. No card, no contract.

Connect your website, app, and podcast feed

When you finish, Genuin knows which domains, apps, and content sources belong to you, so embeds load only where you allow them and your existing content can be turned into video. Your part takes about 5 minutes; domain verification can take up to 24 hours if DNS is slow.
