Stages AI launches Portfolio with hosted creator sites and free all-tier access

• Stages AI shipped Portfolio, a new public-facing site builder that turns a user's account assets into shareable creator pages, according to dustinhollywood's launch post and dustinhollywood's Portfolio announcement.
• The core pitch is less "pick a template and publish" than "build your own sections on top of the app's asset system," as dustinhollywood's hosting reply and dustinhollywood's customization post put it.
• Stages says Portfolio is hosted inside Stages and included with all account tiers forever, while the official pricing page still shows a free plan with basic workspace access and paid tiers above it, per dustinhollywood's hosting reply and dustinhollywood's all-tier pricing post.
• Portfolio extends a product that already sells itself as a full creative operating system, with an official homepage centered on canvases, agents, media tools, and a marketplace, while dustinhollywood's launch week tool list shows how broad that tool menu already was.

You can browse Stages' homepage, its pricing page, and the about page, which frames the product as "the operating system for cinematic AI production." Then dustinhollywood's first teaser adds the sharpest new claim, that social platforms are no longer reliable portfolio surfaces, while dustinhollywood's follow-up says the new pages run on the app's assets engine and MEMORX system. A separate Portfolio demo post and Resolve Audio Studio demo make it clear this launch week was not just about a landing-page feature.

Stages is pitching Portfolio as a way to turn the work already sitting inside an AI creation account into a client-facing site.

The feature claims four concrete things:

• pages are public facing
• they can be adapted for different use cases or customer types
• they can be as dynamic or large as the creator wants
• they pull from account content and assets automatically

That is a meaningful shift in scope. The official about page says Stages wants to unify generation, orchestration, memory, collaboration, and delivery in one command center. Portfolio pushes that stack one step farther, into the part where a creator has to show the finished work to someone else.

The most useful implementation detail came in replies, not the teaser. In dustinhollywood's hosting reply, Dustin says users design the site "right in stages" and Stages hosts it as part of the account.

The customization language is also more open-ended than a normal portfolio template picker. According to dustinhollywood's customization post, users do not need to stick to templates, can add as many sections as they want, and get pages that run on the platform's assets engine and MEMORX system.

That same post says the feature is free with all Stages tiers, not as a launch promo but "forever." On the official pricing page, Stages lists a free tier, a $29 Creator BYOK tier, a $89 Creator Plus tier, and a $159 Pro tier, which makes the all-tier Portfolio claim notable because the company is adding distribution value without moving it behind a higher plan.

Portfolio landed inside a product that is already sprawling. The official homepage describes Stages as a "creative command center" with an infinite canvas called STAGE, an agent layer called AGENTIX, and a command system called CUE.

The fastest way to understand the surrounding stack is the launch week tool list from dustinhollywood's tool rundown:

• MULTI-SHOT / MULTI-ANGLE / CHAOS
• SHOT STUDIO
• SURGICAL EDITOR
• EDITX
• BOARDS
• INK ROOM

The official site fills in the broader system around that list:

• Homepage: infinite canvas workspace, multimodal generation, marketplace, and CUE orchestration
• Pricing: free and paid tiers, BYOK support, and standalone tool passes
• About: a positioning statement aimed at creators, studios, and production teams rather than casual prompt users

That context is what makes Portfolio interesting. It is not a standalone site builder bolted onto a social bio link. It is being added to a platform that already wants to own the workflow from moodboard to output review to client-facing presentation.

Portfolio was announced in the middle of a broader product push that also touched audio. In dustinhollywood's Resolve Audio Studio demo, Stages showed a separate Resolve Audio Studio surface during launch week.

The next day's thread added two more details through dustinhollywood's Portfolio thread context:

• version 1.0.1 was finishing checks for release
• version 1.0.2 was planned to add stem separation
• the audio editor was built around editing multiple projects simultaneously

That last detail matters because it is the clearest new capability claim in the launch-week material that is not about Portfolio at all. Stages is trying to look less like a single-model creation app and more like a messy, all-in-one production cockpit, with Portfolio handling the public-facing end and Resolve Audio Studio filling in another part of the pipeline.
