Getting Started with Turtl

A quick guide for your first amazing edits

Jul 17, 2025GuideOnboarding

Welcome to Turtl! In just a few minutes you can turn ordinary property photos into cleaner, easier-to-evaluate listing images. Here's the quick start:

What you'll need

  • A photo (JPG or PNG) of your space
  • At least 1 credit in your account
  • A short idea of what you want changed

3 Steps to Your First Glow‑Up

  1. Upload a photo: Drag & drop a JPG/PNG or click to browse.
  2. Describe the change: Use natural language like “brighten the room, make bedding white, add warm sunset light”.
  3. Generate and review: Compare before/after, request an update if you want tweaks, then save to your gallery.

Which edit power should I choose?

  • Default Edit (1 credit): Great for lighting, color, straightening, glare cleanup, and everyday listing-photo polish.
  • Advanced instructions (included): Add targeted requests like season changes, item cleanup, TV screens, sky swaps, or room-specific direction.
  • Virtual Staging (3 credits): Best for adding furniture, styling empty rooms, or larger room transformations.
  • Marketing Variants (5 credits): Generate five options when you want cover-photo ideas for ads, email, or social.

Pro tips for better results

  • Be specific: “warm afternoon light” works better than “better lighting”.
  • Mention colors, textures, and mood: “crisp white bedding, spa‑like”.
  • Use simple sentences; you don't need photography jargon.

Before‑you‑post checklist

  • Compare before/after at 100% zoom for artifacts
  • Confirm verticals are straight and lighting looks natural
  • Add 2–3 keyword‑rich captions in your listing to match the new look
