AI Stack
8 AI tools, one unified platform. From OCR to video creation, from voice cloning to image generation.
Overview
AI Stack provides a complete suite of AI capabilities through LiteStartup's dashboard and API. Instead of managing separate services for OCR, transcription, TTS, image generation, video creation, and LLM access — use AI Stack for all of them with unified auth, billing, and monitoring.
Note: Text to Podcast is temporarily unavailable while we add English language support. It will return in a future release.
Tools
Image to Text (OCR)
Extract text from images, receipts, documents, and screenshots. Supports multimodal understanding — not just OCR, but contextual interpretation of visual content.
Use cases: Receipt scanning, document digitization, screenshot text extraction, handwriting recognition.
Audio to Text (Transcription)
Transcribe audio and video files to text. Supports multiple languages and file formats including MP3, WAV, and MP4.
Use cases: Meeting transcription, interview notes, subtitle generation, voice memo processing.
Text to Audio (TTS)
Convert text to natural-sounding speech with multiple voices and languages. Choose from a library of built-in voices or use your own cloned voice.
Use cases: Audio content creation, accessibility, podcast narration, notification audio.
Voice Clone
Clone any voice from a short audio sample (10–30 seconds). The cloned voice can be used in Text to Audio. Voice profiles are stored per team and reusable across all audio tools.
Use cases: Personalized TTS, branded audio content, podcast hosts with consistent voice identity.
Text to Image
Generate images from text prompts using Seedream 3.0. Supports multiple aspect ratios, styles, and quality levels.
Use cases: Marketing visuals, social media graphics, product mockups, illustration generation.
Text to Video
Generate videos from text descriptions. Asynchronous processing — submit a prompt, get a video when ready.
Use cases: Social media content, product demos, explainer clips, creative storytelling.
Image to Video
Animate a static image into a short video clip. Upload an image and describe the desired motion or animation.
Use cases: Bring product photos to life, create animated social posts, generate motion from stills.
LLM Router
Intelligent model routing across 10+ LLM providers (GPT, Claude, DeepSeek, Gemini, and more). Four routing modes:
| Mode | Description |
|---|---|
| Auto | AI classifies your prompt and selects the optimal model based on task type, cost, and complexity |
| Direct | Choose the exact model yourself, with real-time pricing (input/output per million tokens) |
| Tag Routes | Map tags like fast, smart, creative to pre-configured models |
| Fallback | Chain multiple models with automatic failover if primary is unavailable |
Use cases: Cost-optimized LLM access, multi-model experimentation, production AI pipelines with failover.
How It Works
Dashboard Access
All tools are accessible from the AI Stack section in your dashboard sidebar. Each tool has its own page with a simple interface:
- Navigate to AI Stack in the sidebar
- Select the tool you need
- Provide input (text, image, audio, or URL)
- Get results instantly (sync tools) or via status polling (async tools)
Async Tasks
Heavy processing tasks (video generation, image generation) run asynchronously:
- Submit — Send your request, receive a
usage_id - Poll — Check task status with the usage ID
- Complete — Download your result when processing finishes
Task status includes progress updates so your application can show meaningful feedback.
API Access
- Go to Settings > API Keys and create a new API key
- Use the API key in your requests to any AI Stack endpoint
- Monitor usage in Settings > Usage

Pricing
AI Stack usage is included in your plan's monthly AI Stack quota. Different tools consume different amounts based on processing complexity. See the Pricing page for details.
