Making your first AI judge clip

The short answer

Browse the templates, open one, upload a photo, set the tone, the intensity dials and up to four focus areas, then hit Generate and wait for the render. The clip plays in the window and also lands in My Collection on the AI Clips tab.

That is six steps, and the sections below take them in order with the one or two things that catch people out at each.

Step 1 and 2: browse, then open a template

Open AI Judges and look through the templates. Category chips filter them, and the grid keeps loading as you scroll. You can do all of this without an account.

Each card shows its own price in the corner. Templates are priced individually, there is no flat rate, so two cards next to each other can cost different amounts. Tap one to open the generator. Choosing an AI judge template covers how to pick, so this post does not repeat it.

Step 3: upload your photo

The generator asks for your photo first. Whatever you upload is what the clip is built from, so it is worth a moment on which one. The same subject can score and read differently depending on the shot, and the photo guide explains why.

Check the picture before you send it. Remove anything in the frame you would not want attached to the result, such as a recognisable room or a document. Nothing in the generator needs more than the photo itself.

Step 4: tune the persona

This is the part that makes the clip yours. You set a tone, set the intensity dials, and choose up to four focus areas: the things you want the judge to dwell on. Four is the cap, and the choice is deliberate, since a clip that tries to cover everything says little about anything.

The persona is picked from set options rather than typed in. Those values drive the generation directly, and keeping them fixed is what keeps results consistent instead of drifting on phrasing. If you want to understand what a persona can contain, building a custom AI cock judge goes into it at length.

The dials are worth setting on purpose. Leaving every one at its default gives you the default clip, which is fine for a first try, but the point of the generator is that the same photo can come back in very different registers.

Step 5: generate

Hit Generate. This is where you need an account, and where the price is taken from your Coin balance as the job starts. If you are not signed in, signing in is the step here.

If your balance is short, the generator resets and opens the top-up window instead of losing your upload. What Cock Coins buy explains the balance, and paying for a rating covers the payment side.

Step 6: wait out the render

The render takes a couple of minutes. You can wait in the window and play the clip when it is ready, or leave and come back: finished clips live in My Collection under AI Clips, and a job still rendering shows a spinner there.

If a render fails, it is refunded automatically, the window tells you so, and you can retry straight away. Failed jobs carry a badge in My Collection, so a failed one never looks like a clip you are still waiting for. What happens if a render fails has the detail.

The clip is a generated video of an AI judge, which is a different thing from a verdict made by a person. The EU’s overview of its AI rules notes that certain AI-generated content should be clearly and visibly labelled, namely deepfakes, so it is worth being clear in your own mind about what you are sharing if you pass a clip on.

Afterwards

Videos play through short-lived signed links that are minted fresh each time you open one, so open the clip from My Collection each time rather than saving an old link. If you are unsure whether an AI clip or a person is what you wanted, AI judge or human judge compares the two.

Common questions on a first run

Do I have to sign in before I start? No. You can browse templates and check prices signed out. The account is needed at Generate, which is the moment the job starts and the price is taken.

Can I change the settings after I hit Generate? You set everything before you press the button, so decide first. If the result is not what you wanted, a second generation is a new job at the template’s price, so use the dials with intent the first time.

Does it matter which template I use for the persona settings? The persona controls sit in the generator, whichever template you opened. The template sets the look, and your tone, dials and focus areas set what the judge says.

Can I leave and come back? Yes. A job still rendering shows a spinner on the AI Clips tab, and the finished clip is there when it completes.

A first-run checklist

Before you press Generate, run through four things: the template is the one you want, the photo is the one you meant to send, the tone matches what you want to hear, and you picked focus areas on purpose. Then press it once and give it the couple of minutes the render takes.

If you want to compare, change one setting at a time. Keeping the photo and focus areas fixed while you change the tone shows you what the tone is doing. Changing everything at once tells you nothing about any of it. The custom persona prompt ideas is a good place to look for what to try next.
